Invicta Dive Watch Appraisal

Invicta Pro Diver Gold-Tone Men's Watch

This is an Invicta Pro Diver series men's wrist watch, characterized by its prominent gold-tone plating across the entire watch case and bracelet. The watch features a dark blue dial with luminous hour markers, including large white Arabic numerals at the 6, 9, and 12 o'clock positions, and baton markers for the remaining hours. A date window with a cyclops magnifier is present at the 3 o'clock position. The hands are gold-toned and luminous, with a distinctive arrow-shaped hour hand and a sword-shaped minute hand, and a thin seconds hand. The bezel is a unidirectional rotating dive bezel, colored in dark blue with gold-tone markings for the first 15 minutes, and white markings for 20-55, transitioning from a darker blue to a lighter blue-grey hue near the top. The bezel edge shows a fluted or coin-edge texture for better grip. The watch is powered by a quartz movement, as is typical for many Invicta watches in this price range. Both the case and the three-link bracelet exhibit wear on the gold-tone plating, particularly on the raised surfaces and edges of the bracelet links, suggesting regular use and potential exposure to abrasion. Specifically, there are noticeable areas of silver-colored metal showing through the gold plating on several links of the bracelet. The overall style is robust and sporty, typical of a dive watch, and it appears to be a contemporary design from the past two decades. The quality indicators point to a mass-produced, entry-level to mid-range watch, with good legibility but visible signs of cosmetic wear.
