Invicta 1953
Re: Invicta 1953
Not being defensive about my drinking, it’s just the only reason you keep coming up with is to why I don’t like that watch brand. The reason I don’t like that watch brand, not your watch, just the brand, is not because I’ve been drinking, which I haven’t, it’s because they are.......extremely amazing watches but I’m ignorant to the brand, now with your help I’ve been educated will do more research and hopefully in the future you and I can start a sub section on Invicta watches

Re: Invicta 1953
Mate, I think that’ll be a very small sub-section!
I dislike intensely the majority of Invicta’s output. Gaudy, quartz oversized monstrosities with a corporate pricing policy more akin to a late-night shopping channel than a serious watch brand.
HOWEVER....
This watch is pretty decent. It’s not gaudy. It’s ridiculously cheap and well finished!
Kiter, I strongly recommend you get one as a daily ‘beater’ and leave the Rolexes in their watchwinder!

Re: Invicta 1953
Believe it or not I’ve enjoyed our little conversation and for the sake of £130 I was going to take a punt and buy one but the cheapest I could find was £300 on the internet so I guess I will never know, look’s like they are harder to buy and a bigger percentage mark up than a sub on the grey market

The Kermit and the Tango alternatives (my descriptions) are at the bottom of this page, Same price.
When you buy one, they seem to offer you a box as an add-on. I thought my watch might be shipped loose because of it, but it still comes in the Invicta yellow box, so the additional box they offer must be something else.

Just to confirm, they are still showing in stock in all colours. 120 euros, approx £113 delivered, and should be no extra VAT to pay. Mine was delivered and tracked by FedEx, from Netherlands via Charles de Gaulle

You don't need any help digging the hole deeper, and you can climb back out of it yourself.

Re: Invicta 1953
I hope you like it!
If it doesn’t wind your mainspring, wait until they sell out on the Invicta store then sell it on!
Best of luck and cheers from Germany.
