The watch came with one hand missing. No item replacement available. I returned and still waiting for the refund.

I bought an Invicta 2903 from Amazon (2009) several months ago after seeing one in a Costco. I found the lowest price from Amazon. It is a large watch, not low and flat like most watches. I like it a lot. The quality is great. The Lorica band is fine -- no one has noticed is not leather (not even when I told my wife) and it is very comfortable. I have had no problems with it at all. I don't drop mine much, but am a fairly big guy (6'2", 230 lbs.) and ride the DC subway regularly. So, I have dropped it and knock it about some. It still works fine, and, no breaks or scratches. The chronograph works well. Unlike a couple other reviewers, I have not noticed myself having difficulty reading the time with this watch (I am 48). Oh yeah, my wife wants one now too.

This is definitely an attention-grabbing accessory. But, after owning it for a couple of months, I've decided that it's more a piece of jewelry than a functional watch. That's not to say it doesn't keep good time: it keeps excellent time. It's just that you can't easily tell what time it is by glancing at it.
The crown is a huge magnifying crystal. If you're looking straight down at the face of the watch, it does a great job magnifying the face. This would be super in a wall clock, which you often look at straight on. But on a watch, unless you twist your wrist so you're looking directly at the face, the crystal distorts the face sufficiently that it's hard to tell what time it is. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that the hands are white on off-white. (And they do not glow in the dark more than a few minutes.) So you really have to look to see what time it is. There's no discretely checking the time during long meetings or when someone's droning on relentlessly.
With regards to the chronograph: I had assumed that the sweep hand was a second hand, and the dials were for the chronograph. That's not the case: the top right dial is the second hand, and the sweep hand is part of the chronograph, measuring 10th's of a second. That's not a problem, but it is odd. Also, I find that I push the very large buttons without intending to or realizing that I've done so. This means I can't fully trust the chronograph for timing long-ish things like parking meters, as I may have stopped the chronograph for some indeterminate period of time by accidentally pushing the buttons. That reduces the chronograph's usefulness somewhat.
Finally, a word to the wise: if you're travelling or going to court, remove this watch before going through the metal detector. I got a very intimate inspection at the airport after trying twice to pass through the metal detectors, and beeping both times. On my return trip, I took off the watch and didn't beep at all.
It may sound like I don't like the watch. That's not true. I wear it most every day. But, by buying it online, I didn't find all this out until after I bought it, so I thought I'd let others know in advance what I would've preferred to know before I bought it.

I love Invictas, but have had some issues with the mineral crystal glass breaking. This watch can take rough use. I've dropped it on near every type of city surface with not problems and very few scratches. It still looks good as a classically styled timepiece.

Understand that when reviewers say this is big, they mean it. The picture on amazon reads very flat. This watch face really shines and the color is very rich looking. It's not the easiest thing to read in the beginning, but once you get used to it, it's fine. It truly is a handsome piece.
UPDATE: I purchased this watch in 2008, it was used very, very gently and now is no longer working in March of 2010. I'm disappointed that with all the hubbub about Invicta watches' quality, I should now be holding a bum example and will have to deal with getting it fixed.
