The first thing my family and I noticed when I opened the box of this watch is that "Objects on the Amazon page are larger than they appear." The Invicta is BIG! In one way this is good; the display is BIG and easily readable. Other than that, unless you have a big wrist, this seems out of scale. The band is rubber elastic with no adjustment. You stretch it (in my case, not very much) over your hand like a giant rubber band. Then, it flops around because it's BIG. Since the display is LED (Light Emitting Diode - an older digital display technology), it has a retro technical look that is part of the design intent. However, this means the display cannot be on all the time because it would drain the battery fast. As a result, you must push a button in order to see the time. I found this, inconvenient. Another slight inconvenience is that at the push of the button, the time does not immediately flash on. Instead, it does a short light show of bits coalescing into the time reading. Not horrible, but also not like you can just pull the watch up and know the time, either.

A positive is that since this watch has very minimal functions (12 hour or 24 hour time, no date or chrono), it is very easy to set - no instructions required for most of us.

Now, although I found the styling and functionality to be not to my liking, others (mostly younger, hipper) liked it a lot more. It is well made and probably works well as a conversation piece in some circles.

If you want a watch as a watch instead of a fashion piece, however, you may want to get something smaller, adjustable, and with more functionality.
