picked this one up for a song tonight................white dial 45mm cushion case which was a draw for me, and ETA 2824-2 movement. I included a pic of the black dial version to show the unique bracelet which looks solid and well made but we will see how the lug configuration works in real life:D Should ship tomorrow and will post Camera_photos.gi's when it arrives.

Nice one, TonyD. hand6.gif I like the way the indeces are formed and made. I've never sen this watch before but it looks like a keeper to me. Bracelet links are also uncommon, I think. Wear it in good health.:)

Thanks again everyone for the kind replies:)

Cfoster this one is a post Invicta, they have been around for a few years and sold out via ShopNBC.

SCoifman if I remember is either the parent company of Invicta or an off shoot. Either way they are IMHO a notch up on Invicta, all are Swiss Made.

Great looking watch Tony, the dial and bezel look very classy.  The lug design is unique in design but I like it, enjoy your new watch.  hand6.gif

Tony,

I own the black dial version of that watch and I guarantee that you will love it. With the lugs set the way they are, the watch looks about a mile thick, yet it will easily fit under a dress shirt cuff. The dial looks to me to be ceramic with the indices actually embedded in the dial material, not just laid on top. Bracelet is very comfortable and the watch is a real presence on your wrist.

If I remember correctly, Coifman is Eyal Lalo's grandmother's name. This is one of Invicta's high end brands, but you can sometimes find great deals on them. BTW, the crystal is sapphire and the case back is impressively decorated, too.

Enjoy yours!

Steve
