Great for 3 years.
Wonderful watch while it lasted. I have heard that my experience was shorter than most Miyota movements. I wore it every day and was incredibly pleased with the look and heft. With only slight abuse the crystal got one small scratch and a tiny chip. It always gained about 15seconds a day, but such is the life of automatics. Three years to the month it started running down overnight, and a month later won't stay running at all. Setting the time manually, it feels as though there are "rough spots" in the geartrain occasionally. Probably not worth the price for only three years, but assuming it should last longer, I would have to recommend it.

Outstanding Price for Outstanding Quality!
I've long lusted after this watch because it closely resembles my Rolex Submariner, black on black. The pictures do it no justice, as this watch is an excellent copy of my Rolex -- except the luminous hour markers are small on this Invicta than my Submariner. This Invicta Pro Diver Collection Coin-Edge Automatic Watch (#8926c) has the weight,feel, and look of the genuine article, overall. It has nicely brushed links, with highly polished center links; the black dial, with black bezel, has a fine visual appeal; the bezel works smoothly. The sweep of the seconds hand is steady, but perhaps not as smooth as the real Mccoy; still, I'm very satisfied with it and am glad to have "given in" to my lusting for it. I wanted a look-alike to wear daily so I can minimze risk of losing or damaging my original. This watch fits the bill. I firmly believe this is an excellent buy for a very reasonable price. As usual, Amazon.com's shipping are outstanding: the watch came in its signature canary yellow box. Amazon's customer service is a model of what it should be. It's why I've been a faithful customer for the past several years.

Great value for the cost on close examination
I've had my Pro Diver 8926C for about 3 months now, wear it every day, and have had absolutely no real problems with it. Since I wear it every day, I don't have to wind it, and in the last 3 months, as far as I can tell, it hasn't gained or lost ANY time whatsoever - it is extremely accurate. Maybe I just got lucky, but if my watch is any indication, the 8926C series watch seems pretty reliable and high quality.

I have worn it swimming in the ocean with no problems at all, and although I'm not terribly careful with it, there are no scratches at all on the face, so it seems fairly scratch resistant, but the metal watch band does appear to pick up scratches easier than I would have expected, although they are not really noticeable. The automatic winding mechanism is fairly quiet - I had one watch that really made a distracting cranking sound when I moved around, so this quiet mechanism is a nice change. The second hand has a nice sweep, you can see it tick, but it isn't as jerky as some other watches I've seen.

My only real "complaint" is the glow in the dark hour markers and dial - it honestly doesn't last more than about 5 minutes in the dark - basically you notice it is glowing brightly, but in a few mere minutes, the face is dark and can't be read. I had the same problem with my Citizen watch as well, while on the other hand my Tag Heuer glows in the dark for over an hour. My other only complaint is based on my own personal preference - this watch is not as wide as I'd like, I prefer watches to be around 42-44mm, so this watch feels small to me.

All in all, the watch is very accurate, looks good, very durable in any conditions - water, heat, or activity, and considering the price, is a tremendous deal. High quality for an almost ridiculously low price.
