  A must-have!
Invicta Men's Stainless Steel Automatic COSC Bracelet Watch

A genuine COSC (translation: Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres) timepiece. In other words, a masterpiece, since COSC is the ultimate in Swiss watch certification. And the Admiral has earned it. Clean lines and sharp details make this understated timepiece as crisp as dress whites and sturdy as a steel hull. On watery expeditions large and small—to the beach, pool, or boat—rest assured this watch is as seaworthy as its name, with 100 meter water resistance and a screw-down solid stainless case that keeps moisture out. Twenty-six jewels, Tritnite® luminous hands and a black dial keep this watch firmly in the officer's club. Each Admiral comes with its own COSC certificate. We suggest you frame it.
This watch has a round stainless steel case with an exhibition back, allowing you to view the movement through a clear window. The round black dial is textured and houses a silver-tone "Invicta" and logo below the 12:00 position. "COSC Swiss Made" is written above the 6:00 position. Silver-tone applied Arabic numerals are also located at 12:00 and 6:00. Silver-tone applied stick markers are displayed at all remaining hours. The date window is located next to 3:00, and this timepiece has silver-tone luminous hour and minute hands, and a silver-tone second hand.
This watch features an officially certified chronometer. A chronometer is a watch that has passed a test given by the Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronometres, or COSC. The COSC is an official Swiss government agency that tests watches to ensure they fit within a narrow window of acceptable error. This watch is highly accurate and reliable.

    O,

    My thinking is the size. Tough to pull off 50mm. The dial design looks clean but the hands look a little short and the date window looks like its in the middle of the watch because of the dial size.

    I am still tempted as wellmistake.gif

    The SW200 26 jewel movement is the only question that I would ask about.  How much longer are they going to be able to buy ETA ebauches.  This is one of the modified ETA clones that they started to produce to respond to ETA closing the door.  They have been assembling the ebauches and modifying them but I do not know if the quality is there yet on there in house Sellita movement.
