Invicta Men's 8926C Pro Diver Collection Coin-Edge Automatic Watch Overviews
Classic styling and high performance add up to an outstanding sport watch for your land or sea adventures. This automatic watch, from Invicta's Pro Diver series, places a large round stainless steel case on a robust triple link steel bracelet. The black dial is designed for quick and easy read-off, even in low light conditions. It offers three-hand function with Tritnite-coated luminous hands and hour markers and a magnified date display at the three o'clock mark. The dial is capped with a resilient mineral crystal and framed by a black unidirectional rotating steel bezel with coin edge detailing. This watch is driven by Japanese automatic movement, which is visible through the see-through skeleton caseback. It is rated water resistant to a full 660 feet (200 meters).p/ppemstrongAutomatic Watches/strong/embr /br /strongAutomatic watches doem/emnot operate on batteries./strong Automatic watches are made up of about 130 or more parts that work together to tell time. Automatic movements mark the passage of time by a series of gear mechanisms, and are wound by the movement of your wrist as you wear it. The gear train then transmits the power to the escapement, which distributes the impulses, turning the balance wheel. The balance wheel is the time regulating organ of a mechanical watch, which vibrates on a spiral hairspring. Lengthening or shortening the balance spring makes the balance wheel go faster or slower to advance or retard the watch. The travel of the balance wheel from one extreme to the other and back again is called oscillation. Lastly, automatic movements come in different types, including movements that are Swiss-made, Japanese-made, and more.br /br /Also referred to as self-winding, watches with automatic movements utilize kinetic energy, the swinging of your arm, to provide energy to an oscillating rotor to keep the watch ticking. They're considered more satisfying to watch collectors (horologists) because of the engineering artistry that goes into the hundreds of parts that make up the movement. If you do not wear an automatic watch consistently (for about 8 to 12 hours a day), you can keep the watch powered with a watch winder (a great gift for collectors).br //ppstrongPro Diver Collection/strong/ppPlunge into any horizon using the steadfast guidance of the Invicta Pro Diver. Stylishly classic, internal workings are forged with variations of either Swiss chronograph or 21-jewel automatic movements and willingly navigate in depths up to 300 meters. Built with confident prowess, the fortitude with which these timepieces function makes the Pro Diver the quintessential in performance./ppemstrongScrew Down Crowns:/strong/emstrong/strong Many Invicta watches are equipped with a screw down crown to help prevent water infiltration. This is most common on our Diver models. In order to adjust the date and/or time on such a watch, you must first unscrew the crown before you can gently pull it out to its first or second click stop position. To do this, simply rotate the crown counterclockwise until it springs open. When you have finished setting the watch, the crown must then be pushed in and screwed back in tightly. strongNot doing so will cancel the water resistance of the watch and will void all warranties from the manufacturer./strong Overall, this process should not require a lot of effort or force./p

Invicta Men's 8926C Pro Diver Collection Coin-Edge Automatic Watch CustomerReview
Upon receiving the Invicta 8926C (which Amazon shipped quickly), I immediately noticed that the date cyclops appeared to be slightly askew. It was annoying but not a huge problem because I quickly learned to ignore the issue. Aside from that, the watch looked and performed just fine....for two weeks. After two weeks, the watch would not remain wound. Regardless of my winding method (manually, using the stem, shaking it from side-to-side, or using a watch winder), the watch wouldn't stay wound for more that 2-3 hours.br /br /I decided to return the watch to Amazon for a replacement. I submitted the replacement request on Thursday, Aug. 19 at around 8:30 am. I received the new watch on Friday, Aug. 20! This was my first experience with returning an item to Amazon and needless to say, I was extremely pleased and impressed with their quick turnaround time. Kudos to Amazon!!! br /br /The replacement watch seems fine for now. Unlike the first watch, the cyclops is perfectly aligned and so far, the watch keeps time decently. Comparing the time against my Citizen Eco-Drive Skyhawk AT and Casio G-Shock, both of which synchronize with the atomic clock in Colorado, the 8926C is about 7 seconds a day faster than both of my Atomic watches.br /br /The build quality of the watch seems to be very good. The bracelet and clasp are solidly made and the unidirectional bezel turns securely. The only things I wish they would change would be to remove the 'INVICTA' name stamped onto the side of the case and use an anti-glare crystal. On bright sunny days, I can see some flaring on the face of the watch. Actually, I'm not sure if it's caused by the crystal or the cyclops. Regardless, it's annoying but not so bad that I'm not able to read the time. In retrospect, it's probably caused by the cyclops because the glare was much worse on the original watch I received in which the cyclops was slightly crooked. The crooked cyclops issue probably exacerbated the glare problem.br /br /All in all, I think that this watch is a great value considering I only paid .00...provided that it doesn't stop keeping time like the first one I received. I'm going assume that I just got a bad one the first time around. As such, I'm going to ignore the issues with the first watch and base my rating on the one I've got now. I'd probably give it 5 stars if not for the name stamped into the side of the case.
