The Invicta Men's 1430 Chronograph Black Dial Leather Watch is certainly attention grabbing - it's very large and very black with lots of dials, and it's very heavy.

The strong black band is genuine leather stitched in contrasting white thread.  And, as pictured, the easy-to-read face is black with large white numerals.  Add to that a steel case and 100 meter water resistance, three chronograph sub-dials, and flame-fusion crystal (whatever that means).  It's described by the maker as a 'magnificent Swiss timepiece,' but the back says 'Japan.'  Take that to mean what you will.

So far it keeps reliable time, but it's far too early to know how well made it truly is.  I will come back and add a note if problems occur.

Potential purchasers should consider the size of the watch.  It truly is large - my six-foot slender husband found it to be too large for his wrist.  Wearing it would have entailed adding another hole to the band and he found the weight excessive.  But he loved the large face.  Our six-five robust son-in-law liked the size and had no problems with the weight.

May I also suggest that potential buyers also do an on-line price comparison; as I write this no price is listed, but if the eventual price is in line with the other Amazon Invicta watches, it will probably be a good buy.

The bottom line:  For those who are seeking a big statement watch, this may be the ticket.  The Invicta 1430 screams 'look at me!'
