Finally a moderately sensible-looking Invicta. (48MM diameter, though). (Vendor image) Invictas like Swiss Legends tend to run 45MM or larger.

The one thing I don't like about large watches with subdials is that they invariably have regular sized movements that put the subdials all too close together on the dial. This one is no exception and Zeke has been PM'd laugh1.gif

This one is no exception and Zeke has been PM'd laugh1.gif No one ever accused Invicta of being a "design genius". Zeke will be pleased to make room for it in the Invictanator, and Ed Rader, with his hammer, may agree to be his backup. (But let's not lean too heavily on Invicta since Selym appears to not be here to defend it.)

Hate it.
I do not like watches with subdials unless it is a chronograph or a sub seconds hand model with 1 subdial.
This layout or trick is used on so many $3 no name POS watches on EBAY to fool people into thinking it is a chronograph or mobile frontin' that they have a chronograph.

For a true chrono with NO subdials, find a Seiko 6M25/26. (And the $3 no names not only are not chronos, but the subdials are, usually properly disclosed by the vendors as, "for decoration only".)
