Invicta Pro Diver 8926OB Video Review - Watch Clicker

  • If you want to raise the blood pressure of a group of watch enthusiasts, mention the Invicta Pro Diver. It is hard to think of a more polarizing watch than the Pro Diver. The majority of watch enthusiasts will either be indifferent towards the watch or loathe it entirely. Outside of the watch community, most other people know Invicta from TV shopping channels and cruises. The brand is often featured with insane discounts off the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP). The Pro Diver is no exception.
    In this review, we’re going to look at the watch objectively as any other watch would be reviewed. However, there is no denying the polarizing effect this watch has and that phenomenon also deserves a look. Let’s dive in.
    For the full written review of the Invicta Pro Diver 8926OB with photos & more, head over to watchclicker.com/invicta-pro-...

    I'm having this one for 14 years, never failed...it had handled hits, diving, swimming, downhill, etc...every extreme condition...this watch is a must have, no need of a Rolex, Omega, etc...

    I've had mine for over3 years and its never missed a beat. People say "is that a fake rolex" I say "No, its a genuine invicta pro diver". If and when it fails, I'll just buy another one.

    I don't care what anyone says about Invicta watches. I love the ones that I have and are good watches. As far as homages go every watch company copies each other from expensive to cheap. I have a Breitling, Longines, seiko, citizen and so on. I love them all. Each has a time and place to be worn. Besides not everyone can afford a 20k watch. If it makes you happy wear it. :)

  • @hb9145

    Fantastic value. The movement is made by Seiko, and mine was very accurate from the factory. Over the last three days, it has only lost 1,1 seconds a day. It loses a few seconds during the day, and runs a little faster by night when resting with the dial up on the nightstand.

    As an invicta owner, it’s absolutely great. Like you said, I have worn in for years and swear by its reliability. It has survived a ton of shot, even survived a skateboard crash that resulted in me spraining my wrist but the watch was fine. Part of the reason I’m not wearing it now is because I accidentally magnetized the hairspring, causing it to be around a few minutes fast. Nothing permanent thankfully.

    Most people who bought an Invicta Pro Diver or Grand Diver have never dived and will never dive. The plus side is that they look like the Rolex Submariner. If these timepieces can last a day in the pool, it will be a very positive result! Finally, the price is unbelievable 🌟

    I just bought one on Amazon much less and can't wait to get this!!! Great, video. It will be my first automatic but as I am learning more, I'm sure it won't be my last. It's a great looking watch and I love the movement and reliability that Seiko brings to the table. I do like the smoothness of the Rolex sabmariner second hand but I just can't afford a $10k watch. So this truly is a bargain for under $100.... much less zeroes than a Rolex without much downside.

    I own one and just use it as an everyday watch that I would never trust as a dive watch, which is fine since I didn't buy it to play Jacques Cousteau in. If it breaks, or gets lost no big deal. It's an attractive and reliable watch, yes it is a knockoff and screw the watch snobs.
