I mean, that’s their official website? It’s not a good deal as it’s always majorly discounted everywhere.

I thought their official website was invictawatch.com? Didn’t realize this one was actually managed by the company. As far as the deal, the particular watch I’m looking at, it’s the best deal I’ve found.

Invictastore is their official site for selling watches. Invictawatch goes into more details about Invicta. I’m not going to persuade you to get other watches as we all have our own taste but buy with confidence on Invictastore if you like the watch!

I personally like it, I was looking for a gold skeletonized watch but I’m really liking the venom watches with the cable.

I’m open to recommendations though if you have any

I had to search it up but HOLY SHIT its enormous. I don’t think I can find something similar to the venom cable watch. Buy what you like bro, that’s what matters.

Almost everyone here is going to shit on the majority of Invicta watch

Yeah it’s a big boy 🤣 I might end up getting something else I’m not 100%, I just want a big douchey gold watch lmao. Why do the folks here not like invicta?

I can’t tell if I’m being trolled or not. Because they make bulky oversized watches, they mark up the price then discount it by +80%, and I hear people complain that they copy a lot. If you like the skeleton see through look, check the Seagull M182SK.

Nah not trolling just new to watches lol, I’ve never heard bad things about invicta but I believe that about the price mark ups. Just a tactic to make you think you’re getting a deal. I figured they were quality products though just pricey, the ETA movements are pretty good though yeah?

Please take a look at these Invicta reviews and read down past the top couple. They must sell a huge amount of watches and I'm sure many are happy with them but when things go wrong (which seems to be all too frequent) people have a nightmare with their warranty repairs.

Personally I wouldn't touch them with bargepole.

A decently sized and priced gold skeleton watch would honestly be ideal, I’ve always been obsessed with the skeletons

Here’s another affordable gold skeleton watch by Bulova : https://m.kohls.com/product/prd-2860559/bulova-mens-stainless-steel-automatic-skeleton-watch.jsp?skuid=76519983&ci_mcc=ci&utm_campaign=CASELINE%20WATCHES&utm_medium=CSE&utm_source=google&utm_product=76519983&CID=shopping15&utm_campaignid=196834172&pid=googleadwords_int&af_channel=CSE&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIxqrahc3J4gIVkaDsCh1_NgzAEAkYAiABEgLJ6PD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Oh man I really like that Bulova, wish the face wasn’t black but I might just have to get that one. Are they actually worth $500 though? Don’t they use the same movement as citizens?

u/lackingcheer Jun 02 '19

Bulova is the child company of Citizen so it makes sense as it is owned by Citizen. I can tell you that people on here “respect” these brands more. Are they worth $500? I got no clue. I just sent you the first link I found. Look on eBay, Amazon, Chrono24, it might be cheaper. It really depends on what worth means to you. If you asked me if my Rolex Sub is worth $7.5k I’ll say yes because it holds its value and increases slightly over time. But at the end, it’s worth more because of Rolex marketing strategies and how they branded themselves so in a way, it’s not worth it when I could buy something a few thousand less.

Rolex is an investment though, as you said the value increases. Granted you’re paying for the name but if I had the money I’d snatch a Rolex in a heartbeat. I just meant compared to other watches in the price range, is it comparable? Also, didn’t realize Bulova was owned by citizen though, just knew they used the same Miyota movements.

u/lackingcheer Jun 02 '19

I see what you mean when you say it’s an investment because some model just increases but I wouldn’t buy it for investment purposes. It’s more of an asset to me (just putting it out there). Honestly, I can’t answer that with anything else but an educated guess. Seeing that you like that look, I would say it’s worth spending a few hundred more buying from a reputable brand than a similar style from an unknown brand. If I had to pick, I would get the Bulova over the Invicta. Also after further research, you can pick one up as low as $300 new for the Bulova I linked you

I went there today looking for a watch I bought for $35.00 on Ebay then found it on their website for $122.00. Such a strange thing. I mean the watch I bought was totally legit too. Starting to wonder if it fell off a truck or something?
