Good Watch - Very Pleased
While I saw a good number of negative reviews of this watch, I liked the idea of a Swiss movement and the Quartz mechanism. I saw more negative reviews of the automatic clone of this watch. I have been very pleased with the watch so far (that time has been short). I do not see any loss of time and have not experienced any popping out of the stem. I guess those people have problems with everything that they buy.I like the size of the watch. It is perfect for my wrist. It was very easy to adjust to my wrist size. I see no reason to take it to a jeweler to get this adjusted. Anybody with minimal aptitude should be able to adjust the band.I love the appearance of the watch. I do not give a crap if it looks like a Rolex. It is an attractive watch. It does not bother me that the second hand falls between some of the second markers; it hits about 90% of them right on. Big Deal!The watch is light and the band is quite sturdy. I find it equal in quality to Seiko watches that I have owned. I suppose the watch could die in a few weeks, but it satisfies my needs now.The price was a good price. I do not like Invicta's sales strategy by marking up the retail value. It is a $100 watch not a $300 watch. I think it was a good bargain at $69. I have seen it on Amazon recently for $59 and that is an even better value. I am happy with my purchase.It was delivered quickly and packaged very securely. I would recommend this watch to anyone. I am sure some people have received a defective watch. My experience has been great. I would buy another Invicta watch. Do your homework and check the reviews before you buy. I did and I am happy with my choice.

Nice watch!
I was helping a friend look for a new watch. I stumbled upon this Invicta 40mm quartz watch.It looked good in pics on Amazon….. it was priced at $64 and free returns. How could I go wrong?I received it promptly. Immediately, I was impressed with the quality of the finish and the weight of the watch.I have been wearing this watch for a week now…..I took the watch to the local battery replacement kiosk at the mall and changed to green nylon strap instead of the bracelet that comes with the Invicta 9307 quartz watch.I got the exact watch/ look that I wanted for under $100. The finish is excellent. The hands and dial and bezel are beautifully produced. I especially like the magnifier over the date! The watch has been keeping good time within few seconds over the last week…The 9307 is quartz so should run trouble free for years. It’s thinner that a 40mm automatic and I like that too!Crown feels good, but it’s not screw down soWaterproof will be tried while swimming.This model has scalloped bezel which I prefer over coin edge, but the coin edge is probably easier to rotate.A very nice timepiece especially for the price. Everytime I look at it, I swear it says Rolex (Submariner). 👍🏼

Good quartz counterpart to the 8926
This watch is the quartz movement equivalent to Invicta's 8926, which I also recently purchased. (See review) I decided to buy the quartz model not only for the great price, but also to save time constantly setting and winding the automatic 8926. I'm a collector and have over twenty timepieces.The 9307 has the same solid feel of the 8926, which is a mainstay of the Invicta brand. It's a bit lighter and thinner due to the smaller size and weight of the quartz movement compared to the automatic model. Case diameter is the same, which was important to me as I can't wear most Invicta watches; they're way too large for my wrist. (I'm not a large man.)Compared to the 8926, I found my complaints regarding the bezel and clasp remedied on this model. The bezel is more easily turned, and the clasp is much easier to open on the 9307.Two big deficiencies, depending on your point of view:1. No screwdown crown. (No, it is not advertised as having one, either, so for once, an Invicta description is accurate, for those of you who have experienced "false advertising" with this brand.) I won't dive or snorkel with a watch without a screwdown crown. Too much risk. In my book, any 200m watch should have this feature. The 8926 has it, and I feel more comfortable diving with that one. But for casual swimming, the 9307 should probably be okay--stay tuned.2. The lume on this watch is extremely insufficient. While the minute and hour hands are fine, as is the top dot on the bezel, the hour markers are pretty much illegible in the dark. If you want better luminosity, you're probably better off with a Seiko or Citizen, or one of the tritium gas watches. Of course, you won't pay just $80 for those as you do for the Invicta. Tradeoff.In summary, this is an attractive, functional watch. I'll edit this review as needed, but based on previous Invictas, expect this one to be reliable. It's a nice pseudo-Submariner (Rolex) watch in appearance, for a tenth of the cost.
