Why the heck would anyone buy a watch with at cracked crystal (real or faked)?
A fool and his money . . . . . .

How do you know whether it was broke in shipping, or direct from the manufacturer? I can hear it now, "authentic damage verified by our certified watchmaker"

Stickers are a great idea. Can I get a spider web sticker for that "left in a drawer for 50 years" look?

Maybe some of these to make a Seiko 6119 SOG more "authentic"?

That's not Wabi, that's Smashi. Uncool in any case. Very sad.

Some might disagree, but I don't think there's a worse watch manufacturer than Invicta. Everything about them screams cheap & crappy.

To be fair, some of their watches do have good movements from Seiko and a few Swiss ones. They also have a couple of models with top end Chinese movements. That being said, the large majority of their offerings are hideous. Also Invicta has a reputation for incredibly bad customer service :-/

But a lot of the designs to seem to have been ripped off from other watchmakers.

I think it'd be fun trying to transplant it into a 6139 case. It'd result in a pretty badass mix of old and new, and it'd save that poor Seiko movement from spending the rest of it's life in an Invitation case.

I once bought an invicta, wore it for two years and sold it for more than I paid for it new. Not sure any of my Seiko's could do that.
