The Invicta Luminary Sport Watch is another prime example of the ingenuity and class that is demonstrated in all Invicta Watches. It is a part of the amazing Luminary collection that features an external glow, which reflects its internal brilliance. This superb wristwatch for men, otherwise known as the Invicta II Collection Stainless Steel Chronograph Watch, is a dynamic timepiece offers layers of intricate timekeeping, supplemented with incandescent illumination. It is a representation of the brightest technology associated with the Luminary series.
This dynamic watch includes a large surgical grade stainless steel case, which is 52 mm wide and 16 mm thick. It also includes a stainless steel screw down case back. The face of the watch is safely guarded with a tough flame-fusion crystal, which is surrounded with a unidirectional rotating bezel with Roman numerals and mb-Microtec luminous tubes.
Luminous Tubes for Optimal Readability
Underneath the flame-fusion crystal lays an intricate Sunray-patterned dial. The hour markers and hands are also equipped with mb-Mivrotec H3 (luminous tubes), which guarantees an exceptional readability in all situations. The visibility is additionally improved with the mere size of the dial that sports Arabic numerals at the 12 and six o’clock positions and stick markers at the other positions. The dial also includes two chronograph sub dials, (60 second and 30 minute displays) as well as the third sub dial that indicates day-of-the-week and a neat date display at the four o’clock position.
To secure the suitability of this active-styled Invicta chronograph for various situations, the U.S. watchmaker has included a water resistance to 100 meters below the sea surface. Its precision is guaranteed with an accurate and reliable Swiss quartz movement. The Invicta Luminary Sport Chrono Watch also includes a surgical grade stainless steel bracelet, 28 mm wide and of standard men’s length. The bracelet of this Invicta chronograph from the Luminary collection fastens with a secure diver buckle and safety clasp.
There are three available versions of this exquisite timepiece for men we have reviewed. The excellent model 0356 with a black dial has a price of $340. Very similar is the next model 0357 that sports a blue dial and costs 10 dollars more ($350). There is also a very neat version with black-ionic plating on its case and bracelet and with a matching black dial. This lovely timepiece is also worth $350.
This watch has an attractive sporty design, but small water resistant. The absence of a chronograph function is a weak point of this model. I like the fact that it has a unidirectional bezel because I love sports activities under water.
Alan is right about the chronograph, but this watch has many useful functions and a very lovely design. The water resistance is adequate for the sports above and below water, but it isn’t for serious divers.
Alan and Lyman, if you want better water resistance, you must give more money for the watch. I like this watch because it has a primary performance and a pretty sporty design of the case.
