The Invicta 8926 is a solid watch with a feature that truly separates itself from other similar watches. That feature is found on the bracelet in the
form of a polished center link. The polish center link definitely gives the Invicta 8926 a more upscale appearance. There have been some complaints,
form other reviews, about the bezel scratching easily, but I don’t know how much of a problem it really is, as I didn’t want to mistreat the watch, just
to see if they were right :-)

The automatic japanese movement is surprisingly good, considering the low price of the watch. No complaints here.
What about the price? The Invicta 8926 can be purchased brand new for around $74, or used in the $60 to $65 neighborhood. There are much more expensive, higher quality watches on the market, but with such an affordable price the Invicta 8926 is really a no brainer purchase. Well, that is if you’re looking for a new watch. The quality in the Invicta 8926 is without a doubt high.  It looks stylish if you’re wearing a suit, or even a polo shirt and jeans.

The 660 feet water resistant is pretty standard, but enough to go scuba diving wearing it and be confident that it’ll keep on ticking after your water
adventure is over. Another great feature is that it has a black dial. For some reason a black dial on any watch adds to the watch’s luxurious appeal.
The hands and markers are luminious, making then easy to read in low-light conditions.

The Invicta 8926 must have been inspired by the ultra expensive Rolex Submariner watch, because the look is extremely similar, but the Invicta 8926 does sport some touches here and there that make it unique unto itself. But I must point out that although the fit and finish is done quite well, I found the unidirectional bezel a little stiff. The mineral glass on this watcch aren’t as scratch resistant as sapphire, but it’s not bad by any means. If this is a big deal for you, it’s probably a good idea to look for something a little more expensive, that features sapphire glass.

All in all the Invicta 8926 is a watch that is sure to please.  Nothing is perfect, but for the price and appearance, the Invicta 8926 is a great gift for anyone wanting a s tylish diving + everyday watch, that goes well with both casual clothing and a suit.

Snippet from a buyers review
So far this is one solid, classy looking watch. Just taking it off of your wrist, turning it over and watching the thing tick away through the crystal
on the back is a blast. So far so good, and if you are into an automatic watch ( it winds itself with the swinging motion of your arm ) this could be
the one for you.
