My first and ONLY automatic watch to date. My other 14 watches are all quartz.

This is the Invicta Grand Diver Model 3044. 300M WR. NH35A Movement.

Right now, this watch is at the watchmaker's shop. I am having the bezel and the crystal replaced.

The lume dot on the top of the bezel wore off. Totally my fault; I used to wipe down my watch with lens cleaning wipes. The alcohol rubbed the lume off. Now I know better. I use a dry, plain, microfiber cloth nowadays.

And I figured while I was at it, I would replace the mineral crystal with the cyclops lens, with a sapphire crystal that doesn't have a cyclops. I think it will look a lot better. I love the way my Casio Duro doesn't have a cyclops, and I can read it just fine. I think this mod will give the Invicta the same kind of vibe.

RGM does a better version of it:

So if I had the money to burn, RGM would be my choice. 😎

I don't "avoid" any particular brand of watch. For me, no matter which watch I am looking at, it's a matter of perceived value vs. specifications. That's why I love the Invicta Pro Diver and Grand Diver lines. Great bang for your buck, and built solid. Say what you will, but I love the thought of being able to backhand a mugger with my Invicta Sub-Aqua and knock him out cold! 😎🤣

Amen, brother, so do I 😎👍

commented on Which is more addictive?!?💋 ·

I love a good beer, and a good watch; but I don't often drink alcohol, and I don't often have the spare cash to be able to buy a new watch. But I eat burgers probably way more than I should, LOL. 😎🍔🍔🍔
