Invicta Watches for Discerning Collectors

Invicta watches are known for being luxury collectible items available at affordable prices. The Swiss company was founded with the philosophy that high quality timepieces do not need to be exclusive to luxury prices. These highly detailed pieces are made to strict standards, often using rare materials for the highly collectible and limited edition timepieces.

The Force Lefty Chronograph is a rare choice for men. The crown and other push/pull functions are on the left side of the case, allowing it to be easily accessible for those who are left handed. Watches designed for left handed persons are typically hard to find and often come with a pricy tag. This watch is gold-tone with a black leather strap and black face. The chronograph functions of the watch allow you to use two stopwatch mechanisms without affecting the time-telling capabilities.

Measuring in with a 46mm case, this is a hefty piece that is water resistant up to 330 feet. For extra diversity, the straps are the watch include "quick change pins" allowing you to switch to different strap colors as desired. This may become the most versatile watch you've ever owned!

Invicta has not one but two watches for lefties! The Lefty GMT features a rose gold toned case, with the crown simply displayed on the left side of the watch. The sunray type dial has a large date window which has all but the current date covered in a darkened transparent window. White stitching sharply contrasts with the black leather strap.

A collection that Invicta is possibly most known for is the Russian Diver timepiece. Based upon the traditional Russian Divers, these watches are made with precision to best represent the classic design that was a generational piece. The Quinotaur Extreme Grand Russian Diver is a purely rugged watch, available in either black, red, blue, or yellow dial and face. The case is silver-tone and the strap is a hearty and sturdy rubber. Dial hands are all finished with luminous Trinite to truly make this watch as functional as it is handsome. For a more versatile Russian Diver, the Akula Russian Diver is an option that can be worn with either jeans or a three piece suit. This timepiece is two-toned with a gold plated case and a silver-tone bezel. The dial and rubber strap match, with the option of either black or navy blue. The Akula Russian Diver also features the Trinite luminous index markers and a sunray dial that features a GMT scale around the outer rim. The Russian Divers are water resistant up until 330 feet.

Invicta also has gorgeous timepieces for women. The Classique Sandstone watch is sophisticated and truly a rare piece for the collector! Available in both gold-tone or silver-tone, the main focus of this watch is the dial! The dial is formed of either red or blue sandstone formed into a flower design. For extra sparkle, the bezel showcases twenty diamond accents. This timepiece is a sophisticated way to express personality.

Another beautiful chronograph is the Invicta Reserve Capsule Men's Swiss Chronograph. This timepiece showcases a textured bracelet with gold-tone outer links and black polyurethane center links. The bezel of this watch is also textured with a bottle-cap edge. The dial is available in either black or a gorgeous mother of pearl. Both dials have gold-tone hour, minute, and chronograph hands as well as gold-tone trimmed hour markers. Water resistant up to 660 feet, this chronograph is made for beauty and function. It has the look and style of a dress watch, the charm of an everyday watch, and the function of a diver's watch all in one package.

The classic Russian Diver also comes in a women's piece. The Invicta Reserve Women's Russian Diver Akula features both stainless steel and rose gold-tone for a rugged yet cosmopolitan look. The case and bezel of the watch are stainless steel, while the chunky cradle and lugs glow in rose gold. The dial also displays rose gold components to tie in the two tone color display. This watch comes in either white or chocolate brown, with matching dials. In true Russian Diver style, this timepiece is larger than average with a 40mm case. Whether worn for everyday or for special occasions, this watch is a wonderful addition to any woman's wardrobe.

Invicta watches are beautiful, well crafted timepieces that are designed to both be admired and worn. They provide enough options to appeal to everyone, including watches for people who are left handed. Tested to the extremes, these pieces are made to withstand time and to see many generations of your family. For a luxury timepiece that is also extremely affordable, Invicta is the only brand to choose.
