Love watches. Always have. At some price point, I have been collecting since the 1980’s starting with Fosil character watches. The other things I collect are vinyl records (and I suppose HiFi equipmen...

Looks like a fun couple watches, buy it for the both of you (if you like it)
Pass!! Save your money and keep looking for a better watch.

@StevieC54 While you are saving have fun browsing Chrono24 for a used real Monaco. There are some in the 1200-1500 USD range. BTW I have purchased several watches with them and so far it has been a great experience, service and better than expected quality!
Put the $139.98 to one side, and every time you're tempted by a cheap watch that you can afford then put that money into the kitty. Give it a year and you'll have funds for something you'll want so much you won't have to ask random WIS for advice.
Good luck mate 🤞🏻👍🏻
D. Leave them both for somebody else. 😁
Unless you are going to honestly wear and enjoy them they are just too expensive even if they were free!
It doesn't matter what I think. You like them go for it. We all look at watches differently and have our own preferences.
Have fun!
As someone who has two Invictas I would pass on both. Neither one is my style.
Not with a 10 foot pole. and nothing to do with the brand.
Both look cheap, are butt ugly watches and , at 45 mm, way too big. 45mm is huge for a square case.
Nothing against them being Invictas, just ugly watches.
I like a Monaco homage, but these aren't to my taste. Granted, for Invictas they are almost tasteful.
I wouldn’t word it as aggressively as your option C, but they‘re not for me. So I‘d leave them for somebody else who would enjoy them.

In addition to the Invictas, I have this:
#1315 of 2000 original Steve McQueen edition.
For Monacos, it is pretty desirable. I have thought about getting a modern one with Heuer 02 movement. 😉

Ah, all the Invicta hate. 😉
Personally, I have always thought of them as a Mickey Mouse company. 🤣
Then again, who doesn’t love Mickey?
Come on guys, loosen up. 😁
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Far too large for the style. And they just look cheap, gauche and comical.
HARD pass.
