    You have to read this watch review for a Panerai

    [​IMG] Do what I bought you for, June 4, 2011

    This review is from: Panerai Radiomir 8 Days Mens Watch PAM00197 (Watch)
    The case is elegant -- no doubt about it. Unfortunately, it's a mechanical movement. It ran 20 seconds slow, so last Tuesday I walked into a meeting that had started 20 seconds before I sat down. I'm not the boss, so it's not OK. I got the stink eye from the boss and everyone else at the table. If I get fired, I'm blaming this watch.

    ill just talk some nonsense...

    Sorry but the Omega watch that was in the James Bond 007 Spectr movie was a Seamaster with a Black dial, pale orange hour markers and a fabric strap with black and grey stripes. This is a James Bond Watch but I believe this is the one from the GoldenEye Movie or another older one.

    There is always the classic reviews on the Nataf-era Zeniths - these are pure gold:

    At least you get free shipping! You know at least 2-3 people actually purchased this.

    i too have been doing this for a while mostly on ebay to "random" purchases i think my best (and only one that still makes me laugh) was the review for a Haier fridge... on Argos ebay,

    "My fridge is so cold its singing let it go.." *****

    i hope someone somewhere read that and it made them happy inside.

    I love wacky reviews i dont think one should review without a little humor..

    "I was able to make protected storage for 16 large Invicta watches"

    he has 16 of them shit if he's buying them in "new" he could buy a single absolute top tier omega like the best of the best. those invicta monstrosities are not cheap...

    Not working
    The watch was a Christmas present and wasn't working when the box was opened. I'm hoping t just needs a new battery, but if that is the case... why is a brand new watch coming with a dead battery? Very disappointing :(

    Poor Kevin of Havertown PA

    150 invictas and not happy


    https://www.consumeraffairs.com/retail/invicta-watches.html


    If I could rate Invicta lower than 1 star, I would. I'm embarrassed to say I have been an Invicta collector for 10 years with about 150 watches, but no longer. They appear to be a great value with heavy build quality and great style... But God help you if you need service. Their service has got to be the worst of any consumer goods company, from my experience. But the real purpose of this review is to warn you to NEVER buy an Invicta watch with a polyurethane or rubber strap. It will last you 3 yrs average. The bands dry rot and crumble into pieces sometimes when you're wearing them... Talk about embarrassing!!! It took me a few years to find this out and now I have at least 12 of these watches with rotted out bands with more surely to follow. But don't fear because Invicta will be happy to replace them for you for an average price of $150 as they are not covered under warranty which doesnt matter anyway because Invicta warranties are worthless.
