FOR CHOOSING AN INVICTA TIMEPIECE

IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW

Long ago, we set out to continue Invicta’s original 1837 mission – to offer
magnificent Swiss timepieces at modest prices. In doing so, we gave birth
to a movement in the watch industry that is turning the balance of power
over to the consumer.

We hope you enjoy your new timepiece and carefully read the easy-to-use
instructions pertaining to it. By doing so, you will help give it a long life and
keep it operating at the high quality standards by which it was crafted.

These timepieces have been tested for water resistance. In order to maintain
the water resistance, be sure to always close the crown tightly after setting.

We also recommend having your timepiece checked every year by a certified
watchmaker to ensure the gaskets are in proper condition. This will help to
assure the precise operation and longevity of the piece. Please refer to our
Service Center information on our web site www.invictawatch.com.

Screw Down Crowns: Many Invicta watches are equipped with a screw
down crown to help prevent water infiltration. This is most common on our
Diver models. In order to adjust the date and/or time on such a watch,
you must first unscrew the crown before you can gently pull it out to its
first or second click stop position (page 3). To do this, simply rotate the
crown counterclockwise until it springs open. When you have finished
setting the watch, the crown must then be pushed in and screwed back
in tightly. Not doing so will cancel the water resistance of the watch
and will void all warranties from the manufacturer. Overall, this process
should not require a lot of effort or force.

Tritnite® Luminous Markers: Tritnite® is an environmentally friendly
luminous material used exclusively by Invicta. Tritnite® requires 4 –5 hours
of exposure to light for it to glow brightly in the dark. It will continue to
perform with regular exposure to light.

AND MANUAL WIND WATCHES

A Quartz Watch is battery powered and does not require winding.
Eventually the batter y will need to be replaced.

An Automatic Watch is a mechanical watch that winds itself and does
not require a battery. When worn daily, the movement of your wrist causes
the mainspring to wind progressively, eliminating the need for additional
winding. To start your automatic, you can hand wind it by rotating the
crown clockwise a number of turns while in its normal operating position
(screw down crowns will need to be unscrewed first), or by swinging it side
to side for 30 seconds. We recommend housing an automatic in a watch
winder box.

A Manual Wind Watch is a mechanical watch that does not require a
battery, but can only be wound by hand. To wind it, turn the crown clock­wise while it is in its normal operating position until you feel resistance.
This type of watch should be wound daily.

WHAT DOES THIS INDICATE?

WHAT DOES THIS INDICATE?

Many Invicta watches are equipped with features that go beyond the
telling of time and date. These functions are displayed on what are called
subdials, indicators, counters or zones. Your watch may have one or more
of these. Knowing them will be useful when identifying which instructions
pertain to your watch.

! PLEASE NOTE . Since dial designs and shapes var y, not all subdials
are perfectly round, or positioned in the same place.

Small Seconds: an alternate to the sweeping center

second hand, this counter makes a continuous rotation,

measuring out 60-seconds.

Hours: a chronograph function that displays

hours elapsed, often in 12 one-hour intervals.

Minutes: a chronograph function that displays minutes

elapsed, often in 30 one-minute intervals (sometimes 60).

Tenths of a Second: a chronograph function

that displays tenths of a second elapsed.

WHAT DOES THIS

INDICATE?

24-Hour : often called a GMT or second time zone indicator,

the hand of this counter makes a full rotation in a 24-hour

period, thereby also indicating whether it is a.m. or p.m.

It is often coupled with a Sun/Moon display.

Sun/Moon: indicates a.m. or p.m. through the

display of the sun or moon. It is often coupled

with a 24-hour indicator.

Moonphase: this display assures near perfect

synchronization with the lunation period, and only

needs adjusting every two and a half years, should

the watch never stop in that time.

Power Reserve: found on automatic watches,

this zone displays the hours of autonomy

remaining of a movement after it has reached

its winding peak.

WHAT DOES THIS INDICATE?

Diver’s Scale:

mainly found on the

turning bezel of a diver

watch, it allows a diver to

preset the time submerged in
minutes. It is sometimes found
beneath the watch cr ystal, and

can be turned by a pusher

at the 9 o’clock

position.

Tachymeter:

also called a

tachometer, it allows to

measure the speed of travel

over a given distance.

It is frequently used to

determine the speed of a

car over a measured

distance.
