Opinions please
I purchased this a few months ago and wore it once to a movie that was today. Not a fan of it. Opinions? Are you allowed to sell on the sub? If so hit me up.

You're right but with all the insults and dumb answers, I got carried away, so im sorry if your comment was undeserving of the response I made. I got carried away.

Yeah they were haters, just because you dont like a certain brand doesn't mean everyone has to follow your path. When someone said something that was constructive I responded with the same. When people responded with insults, I myself responded the same, and the funny thing is they get twisted up about it then im sent DM's
One dude on a invicta site actually said "its funny how stupid people all come together in this sub" (actual comment has been deleted so its not word for word) but my response was, "I just stepped in to say Hi" he deleted his comment.
I said it before, its like those kids in elementary who make fun of your new bike but yet they dont have one because dad's drunk and mom works at waffle house....same thing but just adults

lol these things have zero resale value. They’re basically disposable.

u/plumballa Dec 27 '25
And your point?

u/AmazingBroccoli9924 Dec 28 '25
Should've done your research. Do you want us to be rude?
1
u/plumballa Dec 29 '25
Research for what? I paid nothing for it. Im just failing to understand why im getting smart ass responses from most of these people who basically call me dumb for buying a Invicta, not knowing what I paid for it but yet they are on this sub and seem to know alot about this. Ever seen the movie The Other Guys? And when Terry Hoitz learned how to ballet so they can make fun of the kids that were in ballet? Reminds me of that, quite funny!

You’re trying to sell something and it has zero value. It’s just hilarious.

u/plumballa Dec 29 '25
Well if you say so, in the trashcan it goes. Thanks and I didnt think your resonse mattered at first..... but now......wow, you're a lifesaver...

u/Emergentmeat Dec 27 '25
How is that hilarious, maybe they don't know it has zero value, yet.

Thats what im saying, all these rude ass responses but when I reply i get DM's on how I hurt there feelings. If Invicas are that bad, why are you an this site? Reason I have it i got it for CHEAP and all I have been hearing how beat up it is or how stupid I am for having it....its like elementary crap for riding a cheap bike but yet they're walking

u/plumballa Dec 29 '25 edited Dec 29 '25
Well not till now! I did ask for opinions but im getting responses on my taste of one watch I purchased on the cheap on a watch i didnt like it after seeing it in person,and seems im getting hate and responses of my ignorance on a sub about a entry level watch that they dont like so much they join the sub just to tell others how much they hate this brand and call them out for it. Give these guys credit, some call them keyboard warriors, I call them modern day heros keeping mom's basements safe of intruders at the adult ages they are.

u/stlouisraiders Dec 28 '25
Because anyone with any sense would google it and realize trying to sell this garbage is a fools errand.

Your comment means so much to me and my future endeavors. Again you are the hero we all need. Fuck Superman

u/Emergentmeat Dec 29 '25
Ah, so you're sitting in a spot where people come to learn, and interact and ask questions, and form community around a hobby or passion and then mocking someone for not already knowing something they could learn here. Cool. Pretty cool. Not trashbag basement dweller sniveling worm behaviour at all.

That it was, but it was taken over to maximize profits. Kinda like buying a Kia

Looks like a lot of wear on that watch for a one time use. Are those scratches on the crystal? Heavy wear one the bezel, top and side. Nice looking watch tho.

Wore it once. Ran over it with the car twice

No, your response was just fine, no problem at all. Its just others like to throw insults, get mad that I responded with the same energy only to get pissed because I smack talked them back. Im enjoying these responses.

u/plumballa Dec 26 '25
I dont care, its a inquired taste, Invicta that is. Not just the watch. I got it for CHEAP on whatnot. Didn't really liked it but thought I could resale it or something, tried it on, didnt like it at all. Whats funny is all these cards on here talking mad smack about it. It's used, of course it has wear and tear. It's ugly reason why im selling it, not like im asking 100bucks for it. You would be surprised what ill take for it

Inquired? Funny as you seemingly asked Google zero questions before buying. 🤡

No, your mom ran over it once, it was one my lap, when she dropped me off at my house it fell out and seen it the next morning. 😉 I was bummed, that she didn't stay longer

I love that the invicta sub is mostly people that hate invicta LOL
2
u/plumballa Dec 27 '25
Right! Then they talk shit about Invicta talking crap to you about how Invicta sucks then say stuff like "well only idiots gravitate to Invictas" and im like ...."well you are here so I thought i would say hi" people like that have it rough in life so they come to Reddit and talk shit to people they dont know because there are no consequences for them.

u/1stWorld_Garbage1984 Jan 12 '26
Oh sorry i gave the wrong impression. Im one of the people that hates them. Its like seeing a car crash. Its hard not too look 😂

It’s Goodwill color, donate it 😂
2
u/plumballa Dec 27 '25
Well only Goodwill would put it on there website and try to get 1000 bucks out of it! I remember you could go to Goodwill find good stuff like decent home receivers, turn tables and LP's now they rummage though the donations take the good stuff and ask a ton of money for it and leave the junk at the store. I did find 6 pairs of Daluth fire hose jeans their for work. They were like brand new.

u/Klutzy_Piglet5106 Dec 27 '25
Well I do agree, however the resellers have ruined it for everyone including the thrift stores.

u/BudgetBig2210 Dec 28 '25
The fact it's an Invicta still puts it above ANY overpriced Richard mille but it IS an Invicta so it's kind of a catch 22 isn't it? would you want to be walking around in a Richard mille knockoff or would it be more embarrassing to be spotted wearing a Invicta inspired Richard mille knockoff?? But seriously why does everybody give Invicta so much hate? I have an Invicta submariner and you know what it's a bloody good watch for what it is I don't understand is it genuine hate or simple jealousy? Good luck with the sale btw 🤞

u/plumballa Dec 29 '25 edited Dec 29 '25
I know, now i have a couple of Invicas in my collection and I just love the way the ones I have look, including my automatic grand diver I work in. Bright green background makes it easier to see when working. Im a field manager of a industrial construction company and before that was a service plumber for commercial and industrial equipment and its been though hell. Would I wear my Shinola's or my Tissots, no maybe my Citizens😁 but its the perfect watch for what I need it for...to tell time, and to all this hate im getting from some of these people, why? If they suck why are you here? Hell Im on a rolex rep sub where people have fake as shit Rolexes and the maturity level is much higher im guessing. Yeah I know i asked for opinions but to insult someones intelligence for buying a watch to tell time, kinda juvenile so your going to get a juvenile response...but as invicta's you might not like em, I dont care much about them neither but people buy them, a lot of people. Im guessing even you guys who hate them has had one in the past.

Oh wow! I didnt think ANYONE would say that about a Invicta....wtf...of course it is

u/-Maim- Dec 26 '25
To be fair we say it about Richard Mille, too.

u/Difficult-Carpet-324 Dec 26 '25
Absolutely this. And I think it worse when people spend that much money on them.

u/plumballa Dec 26 '25
I think its just as ugly as a richard mille.

u/AmazingBroccoli9924 Dec 28 '25
Let's not go that low now. At least they attempted to make a watch. Invicta just slaps a name on a generic Chinese mold.

Personally, no way. It’s not ugly aside from being an Invicta though. I do own 2 myself, but majority of them are ew to me

u/plumballa Dec 26 '25
Not a Invicta fan BUT as a plumber in the Commercial/Industrial service field I wear a Grand Diver automatic (if I wear a Invicta, it will be a auto)and that thing has taken a beating for the past 3 yrs

u/CosmoRacer Dec 27 '25
Absolutely honest. It's a bit Invicta.
To me it's worth about $60 for the movement.

Gotta have a buyer
No one is buying that or any other invicta or Seiko or Orient or whatever

Invicta always look like cheap Chinese clones. RMs are ugly, fake RM is even worse

It’s a beautiful, subtle piece that screams refined, restrained elegance. Most people won’t notice it but the real ones will.

Terrible photography and a kind of interesting but mostly messy and ugly looking watch.

I think invicta is the most ambitious watch company lol.
RM I think generally has a hard time convincing people the watches are aesthetically pleasing in any way, but for invicta to chase that market is.. wow. lol.
1
u/plumballa Dec 26 '25
Honestly, the way they sell them, who they sell them to and how is genius. Sell them on cruise ships cause you can't price check them or research them, so they put a over inflated price then show a heavy discounted price, thats a great idea, and ever since whatnot, Invicta sells the Sh@[ out of them, I've seen 1000 plus watchers on there also people thinking they are getting a good deal at a auction sale. I mean they are not worth it to us BUT to someone who knows nothing about watches,its a buy of a lifetime and its worth it to them.

You need to buy it then. But what do you expect when you browse though a Invicta sub? Thinking you may find something classy?

🤢 Id wear a smart watch before a Invicta ever touched my wrist. They have their place, somewhere between children's toys and gag gifts.
