the picture looks more pale and thinner, which i liked better; be warned the watch is quite thick actually~
the picture does not show the subtlety of the mop dial. :)
it's not a large watch, the size is ok. i have very slim wrist yet i wouldn't call it a boyfriend style chronograph. :)
generally it's a nice and solid one.

i tried the buttons and the functions according to the manual and so far it's ok (did not find the manual very hard to follow). another thing is that since this is my first watch with a date, i didn't realized i'll have to adjust the date every month because it's on a 31-day base. T_T

the diamonds are tiny but i don't care at this price~~

now my biggest concern is the quality, invicta does not seem to have very good reputation on this... so, only time can tell~

update, it's been a year now, i'm still very happy! very little scratch with everyday wear. still looks new~ :)
i got quite a lot compliments from *especially* male friends; although one of them complained it is very similar to a boluva model, but boluva is not a big brand either. so...
