I almost fell over when I saw the HUGE Invicta storefront in Times Square last month.

They seem to be sold in every rest stop along the Jersey turnpike. Make of that what you will.

Probably ShopbNBC/Evine shows. I watch them sometimes to listen to what's being fed to a non-WIS common folk.
Some of the shit they say is priceless. Makes you kinda understand why some Micros even exist. Apparently the bigger and heavier the watch the better value you get per Lb...

I see their storefronts in airports. I've never owned one or really even thought of owning one, but they certainly have a marketing presence tailored to a certain demographic.

I look at Invicta as the costume jewelry of the watch world. There is obviously a market for them or they wouldn't exist.

I guess a lot of people must enjoy them and they must make a ton of money but I rarely see them in the wild and with how big they are I'd think they are hard to miss. I'm also surprised by how many different and "interesting" styles they had on the show. These things were also like 20mm or more thick also.

Mark

Never owned one myself. Most are hideous, but a few are just ok. I'd still rather see a young person wearing an Invicta auto, than some fashion designer quartz or an apple smartwatch.

It's shop NBC/QVC and usually comes on late at night. It is like a reality/comedy series that's fun to watch in short bursts.

A month ago, I was at a conference where one of the attendees overheard from one of my team members I liked watches. After I gave my keynote, he went out of his way to show me his Invicta 50 or 53mm chronograph, telling me he has a few at home and loves rotating between them. I showed him the Lange Timezone I was wearing at the time, and he said Lange never did it for him because they don't make a sports watch.

Different strokes for different folks; Invicta has its following and so do the watches we love. Just like homosexuality or pegging, Invicta isn't for me. But I'm happy for you if you enjoy it :).

So you’ve had an Invicta and you know you didn’t like it? Or you don’t really know if you’d like an Invicta because you’ve never really put one through it’s paces.

There are some things I don’t need to try to know I don’t like - such as cholera.

I owned a few a long time ago. In retrospect they were junk, but they helped get me into better stuff.

So I turned the channel on again for a few minutes and they read a web comment from someone asking about the availability of one of their new models and he said he had a collection of 1,455 Invicta's WTF.
