Invicta Men's Russian Diver Stainless Steel Skeleton Watch

This watch is more than a watch - it is a statement. You will know exactly what I mean when you open the box - WOW. You've never seen anything like it, and you never will, trust me! First of all, it is the largest wristwatch I have EVER seen. On top of that, the design is anything but conservative. The band, the rose gold, the crown, the workings inside - will draw attention, It wont fit under your cuff, or even your jacket, it will bulge out and it will be seen. Might as well roll up your sleeves - or go short sleeved if you dare - and show it off. If you are dressing up in Las Vegas, New York, Paris, Tokyo, or LA for dinner, party or club night, this is it. Dont wear it to your typical stuffy corporate reception, do wear it to the New Years Eve Black Tie party, or to the afternoon horse track or car show with short sleeves. It's a beautiful piece, looks like $2500+ or more. But be prepared, you will know it's on your wrist. The huge crown will remind the back of your hand that its there, I mean its not a problem for a night out or dinner but if you want to try to work with it on, or carry your bags through the airport, or somesuch, it's just in the way. Finally, I can say, not everyone can wear this watch, and even then it won't be wearable anywhere. I mean, it's not like having a Flav-o-flav alarm clock hanging from your neck - but it's close. The average dorky guy in average town USA simply cannot pull this off. But if you have stuff to strut, the statement to make, and the place to make it, this piece is totally unique attention getting/conversation piece and will round out your personal presence in a big way. For collectors, it's a very unique watch, simple in that there is no date, no chrono, complex in the skeleton design and interesting waterproofing. It's a classic manual wind, hard to find these days. Keeps good time and is interesting to take a very close look at and the construction feels very top notch all around. I love the watch and break it out when I am on a night out in my favorite jet set city. At home, it sits proudly on my dresser and helps nudge me to plan the next time I'll wear it. Have Fun and Buy this! I am glad I did, bravo to Invicta for taking such a risk with this totally over the top watch.

A Torpedo of Time, Russian Diver Collection gets a compliment to it's collection when Invicta released a very appealing Skeleton Watch that although doesn't have Swiss Movement still works like a charm. This piece, a skeleton watch with both back and front views, also known as a Skeleton with Exhibition Back, is aesthetically amazing. It does not need 24K Gold, Diamonds and a whole bunch of Swarovski Crystals embedded everywhere, it seems that the more "blingy" a watch looks the better it will sell in this current market. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact it's the simplicity of watching time tick away that leaves you feeling satisfied with the Invicta Russian Diver Skeleton. My reasoning for giving this watch a 4 star review is mainly due to it's striking pose, combine that with an affordable price which swayed me to change this to 5 stars. You get a great watch for an even better price - I paid $130 for mine, the MSRP of $1395 is quite off but the MSRP for nearly all of Invicta's pieces are by no means a guide to the value of the watch. The watch does not scratch easily, it has had 3 months of wear, and I would wear it at least once a week, I would wear it more often than normal if it wasn't so big, if you have a small wrist or if you have not seen a Invicta Russian Diver in person, you may want to reconsider as this watch truly is a beast, so much so that it took at least a month of wear until I felt comfortable having what felt like a couple of pounds on my wrist. Also of note is this watch and it's huge crown, annoyingly if you do not put the watch on properly and it slips loosely on your wrist you will find that the crown and it's massive cap, connected by a chain, will hit your wrist and can be quite uncomfortable. This problem would also arise if your wrist was too small. Fortunately I had a number of Russian Divers and know how big they are so this was not an issue. In conclusion Invicta have laid down a solid foundation of Skeleton Watches that look the part, this model may not have the luxury of Swiss Movement but the manual wind is not so bad and it keeps time well. You would be hard pressed to find a large watch like this with Skeleton features front and back for less than $150, if you can, good luck to you.

Ive had this watch for about 6-7 months and Its absolutely awesome!!! I love how you can see all the parts moving. I have quite a few watches including other Invictas and this watch makes them all look generic. I feel like im some big time athlete/actor when im wearing it. People constantly stare at the watch and are amazed how well built and heavy it is. I must tell you, it is a HUGE watch. It is a lot bigger than what I had expected so I would not recommend it for a smaller person. Im 6 foot 230 muscular build and it looks big on me so again I WOULD NOT recommend it on a smaller guy. Ive had guys that are 5'7" try it on and it looks pretty ridiculous on them so a heads up! The other thing guys may not like is that it is an old school watch meaning you have to wind it. There have been many times in the morning I put the watch on and noticed I didnt wind it the night before or im walking around and someone points out the time is wrong. The other thing that can be annoying is the huge cap protector because it can dig in to your wrist when your moving. Other than that it really is a cool watch. If you want something that looks super expensive and is stands out, this watch is truly one to own, especially for the price!

I only stopped wearing this after I couldn’t tape the band back together again. Good faithful watch. Cleaned up well after all kinds of dirty jobs. If the band hadn’t have disintegrated from what I guess was UV exposure, I’d still have it on!

I really, really like this watch. I have always loved big watches, and I have always loved skeleton watches, so when I saw this in my favorite rose gold color, what was not to love???? I have very small wrists, so it probably looks like a huge weight on my arm, but I STILL love it! The detailing on the inner workings of the watch is just fabulous, and the case is big and substantially made. I also like the nice rose gold inserts in the band on both sides next to the watch face itself. This is an old-fashioned, "wind it every day" watch, but it keeps perfect time and looks awesome on my arm. Plus if I ever decide to take up scuba diving, it's waterproof to 600 feet!!!! You just can't beat that combination! And the price was pretty good for what you get. Just a hugely attractive timepiece that definitely stands out from the crowd. My one concern is how long the rose gold plating is going to last, but I'll just wait and see on that. The only reason I gave it four stars instead of five is because of the "wind it every single day" workings, but other than that I have no complaints. I also like the detailing of the chain on the waterproof sealing cap over the winding steam. Once again, we'll see how long it stays looking nice. So far, so good. Merry Christmas to me!

I’ve been wearing this Invicta stainless steel skeleton watch for a while now, and it really stands out. The open-face design looks impressive and lets you see the movement, which gives it a premium and unique feel. The watch feels solid and well built, with a good weight that doesn’t feel cheap. It’s comfortable on the wrist and works well for both casual wear and more dressed-up occasions. The details are nicely done and it keeps time accurately. Overall, this is a great-looking watch with strong visual appeal and good quality for the price. I’m very happy with it and would definitely recommend it.

I was in a conundrum. I had a Timex that I owned for 11 years and was going through batteries about as often as I changed my underwear; but, I liked the way it looked...and I am cheap. I also have large hands and wrists, so many watches will either not fit, or look as if I am wearing a medic alert bracelet. I decided that I wanted a water resistant watch that winds up, rather than depends upon batteries. First of all, the Invicta 1088 watch is the Hyundai Genesis of watches. From a distance, it looks like a much more expensive timepiece and product, but upon second look you see that it is something else. Also, like the Genesis, you get a quality product for less than one would expect to pay I am not a watch collector. I wear them to tell time. It is a quality timepiece, and is worth the price that you pay for it. I will need to adjust and reset my watch about once every 2 to 3 weeks, as it will lose about a minute. Then again, I wear it every day. Yes, the watch is big. I have large hands, so it actually looks proportional. If one has small hands, you may wish to take this into consideration.

I ordered the watch because I took one look at it and knew I had to have it. You can read reviews of people saying this was broken,it was scratched, or whatever else was wrong with theirs but mine was flawless. they put protective pieces on it to protect it till you take them off. The truth is if you spend the extra 16 bucks or so on the warranty then if somethings broke you can have it handled. I'm 5'9" and about 180 lbs and the watch is a little bigger than I normally wear, the size of the top of a coke can if your wondering, but its what I wanted. I love the manual winding I have to do to keep it running so it doesn't bother me one bit, the finish is perfect and everything is running smooth. I might wear it to work but I'll wear it when I'm not at work. So if your thinking about buying the watch go ahead and buy it, and the warranty just in case, because its DEFINITELY worth the price tag they are asking. It may not be an everyday watch to some people but I plan on enjoying it. I might buy one for my best friend I like it so much because he and I have the same tastes. Its a great watch for a good price.

Keep in mind that this is a very big wrist watch. My wrists are small, so the watch looks even bigger when I wear it. I mostly bought it to add to my watch collection, I love it, no problems so far, came in in a nice yellow gift box to show case it.

Purchased for my husband as a present he already has a few of these watches and i love this one

Es un reloj hermoso, muy grande y pesado, la vista a la maquinaria y el grabado lo hacen ver muy llamativo y elegante.

Appena arrivato l'orologio si è presentato nella sua scatola avvolta con del nylon. La scatola non è un gran ché, diciamo mi aspettavo di meglio, per la precisione qualcosa di più elegante dato il suo contenuto. Appena aperta la scatola, al suo interno troviamo l'orologio, un manuale, dei bigliettini della Invicta e un codice QR che ci porta direttamente nel sito della Invicta. La garanzia dell'orologio è di tre anni, o almeno secondo ciò che c'è scritto nel manuale, e si può avere un anno in più di garanzia registrandoci sul sito della Invicta. Purtroppo per quanto riguarda la garanzia non ho avuto modo di verificarla dato che in Italia non ci sono negozi/store Invicta, o forse io non sono riuscito a trovarli. L'orologio, appena si apre la scatola, è di forte impatto. Il fatto che sia scheletrato lo rende veramente attraente all'occhio, tanto che non si riesce a non guardarlo. Personalmente non me ne intendo di materiali ma a mio punto di vista questi ultimi sono di qualità, anche la gomma del cinturini non è una gomma comune ma è bella dura, molto resistente e sono di un nero particolare, sarà a causa dell'oro placato della cassa che viene risaltato cosi tanto all'occhio. L'orologio appena messo al polso si sente eccome, a causa del suo peso e della corona. Quella che si vede a prima vista non è la corona, quest'ultima in realtà si svita e una volta svitata si vede la corona con la quale e possibile regolare l'ora e caricare l'orologio. Essendo abbastanza grande, i primi giorni darà abbastanza fastidio e farà male, ma si fa l'abitudine. Io è da quattro-cinque giorni che l'ho e già mi ci sono abituato. Infine quest'orologio è al quarzo ma al suo interno non ha la batteria ma ben si la molla, la quale una volta caricata al massimo dura circa tre giorni. Ho provato personalmente a fare questa operazione caricandolo a mezzanotte e caricando al massimo la molla, l'orologio ha tirato avanti fino al mattino del terzo giorno più o meno verso le 9:00, niente male. Da questo punto di vista sono contento che non abbia la batteria, riconosco che caricare l'orologio con la molla sia un po' all'antica ma sinceramente preferisco di gran lunga la molla invece di cambiare ogni volta la batteria. Per ora sono più che contento del mio acquisto, prima di quest'orologio ne avevo un'altro, mezzo analogico e mezzo digitale ma di poco conto, dopo essersi rotto ho deciso di prendermene un altro però sta volta più "serio". Ho optato per questo prima per il suo aspetto estetico e poi per il prezzo, dato che non volevo spendere una cifra esagerata. Unica pecca purtroppo come già detto è la ganazia, dichiarata tre anni, più uno, ma non si ha modo di verificarla. Ma a parte questo è bellissimo, la mia ragazza e amici mi fanno sempre i complimenti. Consigliato.
