The Invicta Russian Diver watch is a very substantial watch; in fact the largest watch I have owned or even seen.  For the most part I like a slimmer profile, but this is a diver's watch and so the large profile, big easy to read numbers are an asset.  It is made with quality materials: Swiss quartz movement, mineral bezel and stainless steel.
  We live in Hawaii, and so spend a lot of tiem in the water.  Consequently water resistance is important.  The environment is very humid, wet even.  that said, the water- resistance serves two purposes; one is the purpose for which it is intended, use in the water.  I actually look for water resistance for every day use because we get so much rain.  The Invicta is water resistant to a much greater depth than most (330 vs 50 on average).  While neither I nor my husband has been diving with it yet, water is a content here; rain almost every day.  He takes long walk for cardiac health rain or shine, and this watch is one he will not have to worry about getting ruined in the rain.  In fact, we bought one of Invicta's diver watches for our daughter for graduation in part because of the additional water resistance.  That watch was a bit dressier and could go from day to night.  This watch is more single purpose.  That said, my husband has several watches and has less need of a "multi-purpose" watch.  This one is a good looking casual use watch which is more substantial and sturdy than most.  It comes with a 1 year warranty which can be extended to 5 years.  The description notes that Invicta watches purchased through Amazon can be upgraded to platinum service for free (and the watch comes with a card enclosed to register it and upgrade the service).
  I like the soft glow of the luminescent hands, the big clear numbers, and the simplicity of design and use.  You do not need to spend hours fussing with this watch to set it (especially nice for frequent travelers)! It is very nicely packaged and emminently gift-worthy.
  I gave the watch 4 instead of 5 stars only because of personal preferences.  I prefer thinner watches. If you like more substantial watches this would not be ab issue for you.  i also prefer automatic winding or solar watches.  I do not like to have to worry about changing a battery.  I know that Invicta offers that option, as the watch which I bought for my daughter is an automatic.  I have to wonder why they make divers watches which are battery powered, as changing the battery (even when done by a professional) generally interferes with or ruin's the water resistance.  Obviously with a new watch I have not had cause to test this.  All that said, I suppose a battery powered watch does have 1 advantage: it is always ready.  I do have a solar watch which I seldom wear, and consequently can not wear.  It needs a certain number of hours of sunlight to charge, and if you don't wear it it does not keep good time.  The same can be said of automatic movement (though those are easier to get restarted, and there are watch winders which solve that problem).  So, I guess it is a matter of personal preference.  I am moving towards doing away with battery powered watches (though I do have a few).  I do, however, feel that it is more of a liability in a diver's watch than other types because it tends to compromise the water resistance.
