Post subject:	New 52mm Monster!
I have been looking at these for some time and finally bought one...for anyone that loves a really, really large watch, this is for you! I am a big fan of Invicta Watches anyway, and when I read the history of the Russian Diver on their website (http://www.invictawatch.com/reviews/review1.html), I had to have one. I opted for the white face with GMT additional hand. Very striking watch and you definitely know it is on your wrist at 52mm...some other stats: Invicta Model: 7003 Crystal: Anti-Refelctive Mineral Crystal Case material: Polished 316L Surgical Grade Stainless Steel Case diameter: 52 millimeters Case Thickness: 15 millimeters Band: Genuine Leather Band at 26mm Date and GMT complications Movement: Swiss Ronda 515 Quartz Movement Water resistant: 100 Meters The illum at night is also very impressive...just like the photos in the link.

It is a huge watch...a few folks here at work were gawking at me today. When I tell them the story about the watch and its history, they all want one...so far so good.

Yeah, talk about gym clocks! I won't wear it a lot, maybe once a month...it is more of a conversation piece but makes a nice addition to my collection.

They sell Invicta at our local TJ Maxx store. If you like that style of watch, you need to check out U-Boat timepieces. Especially U-Boat's Flightdeck CAB/CAS model. They produce a 43, 50, and 55mm. It's a monster! ~Brian

I live overseas, so I haven't been to a TJ Maxx - didn't know they sold Invicta there, as I have a few that were all purchased online. Thanks for the info on U-Boat...I will check it out!

I actually wanted to get a U-Boat until I saw the price! The SA I ended up purchasing was cheaper and way better quality, in my opinion.

The U-Boat isn't that expensive actually. It's much cheaper than the Super Avenger. You can own a 55mm UBoat for $2900. Only thing negative about UBoat is they are all on straps. Bummer. ~Brian
