Invicta Women's 7061 Signature Collection Pro Diver Watch

Invicta Women's 7061 Signature Collection Pro Diver WatchFeaturing a slim, durable design that's meant for serious divers, the Invicta Women's Signature Collection Pro Diver Watch features luminous hour markers to help you keep track of your underwater explorations. Constructed with a stainless steel case, the watch includes a black and red stainless steel unidirectional bezel and a stainless steel link wristband that's secured with a fold-over safety clasp. A scratch-resistant sapphire window shields the black dial, which features bold, luminous hour markers, slim minute indexes, and Arabic numerals at five-minute intervals. The dial also includes a convenient date calendar at the three o'clock position. Featuring Swiss-quartz movement, this sporty timepiece is water resistant to 660 feet (200 m).

Screw Down Crowns: 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. Not doing so will cancel the water resistance of the watch and will void all warranties from the manufacturer. Overall, this process should not require a lot of effort or force.

Automatic Watches

Automatic watches do not operate on batteries. 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.

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).

Invicta Men's 7234 Signature Collection Ocean Ghost Racing Sport Automatic Watch

Invicta Men's 7234 Signature Collection Ocean Ghost Racing Sport Automatic WatchA stylish, modern timepiece from Invicta, the Ocean Ghost Racing Sport Automatic Watch is distinctly accented with black ion plating. A unidirectional bezel with large Arabic-numeral minute markers frames the dial, which has silver indexes and a magnified date display at the three o'clock position. The two-tone bracelet features a secure fold-over clasp with safety, and it nicely complements the silver watch face. This timepiece offers Japanese automatic movement, which is powered by the motion of your wrist. Complete with a tachymeter and water resistant to 656 feet (200 meters), this two-tone beauty is very practical.

Automatic Watches

Automatic watches do not operate on batteries. 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.

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).

Invicta Men's 2306 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Gold-Tone Watch

Invicta Men's 2306 Pro Diver Collection Automatic Gold-Tone WatchBe prepared for a night out on the town or a day's diving the reefs with Invicta's stylish, 23 karat gold-plated Ocean Ghost II diving watch with automatic movement, which provides water resistance up to 200 meters (660 feet). It features a round, shock-resistant gold-tone stainless steel case with embossed unidirectional rotating bezel. The silver dial background is accented by gold triangular dial markers and Tritnite luminous hands (with gold seconds hand). The gold-tone stainless steel bracelet band mixes brushed and polished pieces. Other features include an antireflective mineral crystal with magnifier, Cabochon crown, see-through case back, and date function at 3 o'clock.

Pro Diver Collection

Plunge 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.

Screw Down Crowns: 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. Not doing so will cancel the water resistance of the watch and will void all warranties from the manufacturer. Overall, this process should not require a lot of effort or force.

Automatic Watches

Automatic watches do not operate on batteries. 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.
