This is a very attractive watch. I do think the rose color is a little on the odd side, but I'm sure I'd get used to it.

On the functional side, I liked the idea of the diver's gauge quite a lot. That is a dial around the entire watch circumference with a 60 minute set of markings on it. If you want to know how much time you are spending on something, you spin the diver's gauge to place zero at the spot your minute hand is pointing to. Then you can simply read the minute hand against the gauge to see how much time has passed since you set the dial. Very convenient way to time things without having to worry with stopwatch type features.

Mentioning stopwatch type features, that was the drawback to this watch. The buttons which control the stopwatch timers were somewhat stiff, and a bit narrow. Pressing and holding those buttons actually hurt my fingers as they dug into them. Since this is not something I'd probably actually be using the watch for outside of playing with the functions after receiving the watch, it would not impact me whatsoever. However, someone who might actually select this watch with that feature in mind might want to take this into account. I have another Invicta with an almost identical set of stopwatch dials controlled by two buttons just as this one is, and I didn't notice any discomfort when using the buttons on that watch.

On the other hand, the watch's stem functions better than the one on my other Invicta. On that one, it was very tricky to pull the stem to the correct position to set the watch's time and/or date. This watch did not have that issue. The stem behaved very well and I had no trouble with setting either. Not that I really needed to. The watch arrived set to the correct date and even set to EDT. I only needed to play with the settings using the stem to verify that I could acceptably use it to correct them if needed.

As with pretty much all watches now, the band has the maximum links in it, and only would fit on a giant sized wrist. You'll need to either take it to a jewelry counter to have links removed, or if you are adventurous and handy, buy one of the little kits here on Amazon that will allow you to remove links yourself. They only cost a few dollars, so that is a realistic alternative. In the past I've had jewelers want me to leave a watch with them for a band adjustment. When that happens and you have to make two trips, that becomes somewhat of an inconvenience.

The issue of the stopwatch control buttons aside, I have no trouble recommending this watch if you are OK with the color.
