Question about some dial
Got my dials today with the one of the Endicott I was waitin for. There is also another interesting enemal dial in the package but I am not sure which watch it was used for. Does someone know more about it and in wich watch it was used? I believe it could be a O124 (thanks to Tom's dial gallery) and it measures 26 mm in height and 22 mm in width.

A short story of my 1st Divers watch, and how this journey started for me....

I wondered if they were right - even though I didn't think so.My analysis, based on the admittedly limited number of responses, is Invicta is accepted - if not respected - here at WTF. After all 65% of the folks who responded to the survey own them!While there is much negative chatter about Invicta's customer service, quality control and fearless leader, which many - including me - feel is deserved, I would say the general perception is positive.And I honestly don't think anyone here looks down their nose at Invicta ownership. Many of us who own Invictas also own luxury brands - and enjoy them all equally.So with that, I would like to pronounce the concept of Second Clas
