Invicta Paul Newman
Just got this today and I have to say for 75 bucks Its a great watch. I have two gevril limited editions and this watch seems to be built better and not the annoying 42mm.

I would not own an Invicta but each to their own. Hope you enjoy it.

Everyone has their own reasons for owning watches. And each person's reasons are valid for him. I don't prefer homage watches, but that is me. I am glad that those who own them find happiness. After all, this hobby should make you happy.

You are a very wise gentleman; some collect for value, for looks, or for perception, to each their own.

Looks sharp. I seem to remember that Gevril made a PN looking model, too. Is that one of the Gevrils you own?

Good looking watch for the money.
I have no shame saying I own a couple of Invicta. They serve their occasional purpose for me. During a recent trip back to my homeland of Cuba for the very first time in over 50 years, since I was going to travel all over in my own rental car, coupled with not wanting to show off a major high end brand, I wore one of my Invicta. You would not believe how many looks it got, even in a high end hotel. I love watches, period.

I watch the invicta show on the TV sales network at night. Maybe 3-4 nights a week. It puts me to sleep and gives me a chance to look at watches. Some of their core dive stuff is very impressive. I think they have some great storage boxes as well. It's the Toyota vs Mercedes argument. Aesthetically they have some very cool stuff. With that said, I don't like when companies copy existing things that closely.

I'd imagine that most of the world doesn't know PP,AP,VC,Omega, Rolex from Invicta. Enjoy it. Have fun.
