I was in a fine watch shop doing some window shopping and asked the same question, salesman thought I was making a joke. The short version is that they are a Swiss company, but the watches that are being sold on HSN or QVC are chicom garbage. Despite what the host on the TV show says they have zero collectors value.

I want one

Meh they work, the movements are ok, but you get what you pay for. Generally better than the Chinese clones of the fancy omegas and rolexes that are the same price at least they advertise what they really are.

I have one. I love it!

It looks good and works just fine.

I really should be a paid spokesman for Precision Time. If you have one in your local mall, stop in and check the clearance section. A couple months back they had this watch on clearance for $30.

Nothing wrong with it, just wasn't selling. In the same clearance case they had a stainless case, black face, and green hands and hour markers for $59; and a stainless polished case with white face model for $49. No rhyme or reason.

They also had a Tritium watch that everybody gushed over during the 4th of July sale for $59, and the Ceramico which was a steal at $39 eventually could be had for $24.

You don't need to spend a lot to get a decent looking and functional watch. As stated, for $200-$300 you can get a nice Citizen or Seiko.

If an Invicta is inexpensive enough, and you like the look, buy it. If it dies, who cares? Not like its a $4,000 Breitling.

Watches are one of the few accessories men have to define their style. I probably have 30 watches, everything from $30 to several thousand dollars. They all have their time and place. Some guys want one or two watches and don't give a shit about trends. Some guys want one watch, their dream watch. Some guys want a mix of both, while some are very specific in wanting a particular style, maker, movement, period, etc.

Again buy what makes you happy. This coming from a guy who used to only own Swiss watches, and would die before owning anything with a Japanese movement, I've moved beyond that because I no longer buy watches to impress people like I did when I was younger. Now I buy them because I like the look and they make me happy.

All the dumb in the 1597 posts you've made before that one don't add up the dumb in that post.
