It was between this watch and the Bulova Marine Star watch which is two and a half times more expensive.  I tried the Bulova watch on in a local jewelery store and was not impressed enough to spend the additional money.  I ordered the Invicta watch and was amazed.  It is, in my opinion, more impressive and beautiful than the Bulova watch.  The Invicta watch face is slightly larger and stands a bit taller off the wrist.  The Invicta watch has a dial which shows the day of the week (the Bulova does not) in addition to the date which I think is a neat feature.  Also, the Invicta watch has a beautiful blue crystal accent on the knob which is actually lighter in color than it appears in the photograph. I took it to my local jeweler and had 5 links removed.  Even the jeweler commented on what a beautiful time piece it is.  I feel like I got such a great deal on this watch and could not be more pleased.  I liked that a purchaser of the Bulova watch added pictures of it on her wrist and wished someone had done that with this watch before I purchased it so I added some pictures of this amazing watch on my wrist to help those of you that are on the fence.  You will not be disappointed with this watch!
