Invicta 4607 Pro Diver - Beautiful Watch

The watch comes in a beautiful yellow box with all manuals and warranty documents. It worked right out of the box, and I was stunned at its beauty. This is my second INVICTA. I also own an INVICTA sub diver series watch.
The craftsmanship, finish and detail of the Pro Diver 4607 (43 Series) watch is second to none in this price category or any category for that matter, unless your willing to pay thousands for a watch. I paid around $175 for it.
It's fully automatic so it doesn't need a battery, it's water resistant to 200 meters (see my update below) and I believe it uses the reliable Japanese Miyota automatic movement. The calendar date magnifier allows you to see the date clearly. The two-tone stainless steel bracelet is fine but, personally I would prefer a heavier gauge metal bracelet.
I highly recommend this INVICTA watch for people who like striking, elegant Pro diver style watches. This is a watch I will cherish for years to come.
Update:
This watch unfortunately didn't live up to its name (Pro Diver) rated at 200m or 660ft. The first time I went snorkelling with it the watch face immediately filled with water and the watch stopped working. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. I didn't just purchase this watch for looks, but assumed it was rugged enough to withstand a bit of snorkelling in fresh water.
I would have to question to what extent the watch was pressure tested prior to going on sale. In any event, I sent the watch off for repairs under warranty and 7 weeks later received the watch back from Invicta in working order. This is my second Invicta and both have failed in the water although claiming 100m and 200m water resistance (See my review on the Sub diver). By comparison all my Casio and Seiko watches claim 100m water resistance and all have been in the water on numerous occasions and none have ever taken on water!
Unfortunately, my next dive watch purchase will probably not be an Invicta.

| This watch looks just like a $7000 diving watch my friend has plus it is self winding. The price is right it works good and I glad I purchased it. |

I knew this brand 5 years ago, when I saw this watch I decided to buy it. When arrives the watch is more beautiful than in the amazon page. I recomend to buy this brand.
I use to buy Rado brand, but this is a good option too and you do not need to invest as much as with the others. |

| Really beautiful eyeful 100 times a day! The rich, deep blue face and true-tone gold, OMG! My dozen watches have dead batteries now, so I am resolved that any new additions to my display box will be self-winding like this one. Magnified date window lets me view the info at least sometimes. Night-long glow is usefully brighter than my other models, mostly Seiko and Casio. I like the continuous second hand sweep. I walk laps and glance at the time alot, and am always glad to see this watch. |

| Watch is a great value for the money. Amazon had the lowest price by far. I like the automatic feature however you have to reset the watch if you don't wear it for more than a day. |

| I call this my "Mariah Carey" watch; big, bold, and beautiful. And,in the case of the watch, unbelievably cheap, too. |
