Invicta Pro Diver Stainless Steel Automatic Watch
Product Overview
The Invicta Pro Diver Stainless Steel Automatic Watch is a precision timepiece designed for men who value durability, style, and reliable performance. Built for everyday wear and capable of handling aquatic environments, this watch blends sporty functionality with a refined aesthetic. Its automatic movement eliminates the need for battery replacements, offering self-winding convenience powered by natural wrist motion. Ideal for divers, professionals, and watch enthusiasts alike, the Pro Diver delivers dependable timekeeping in a rugged yet elegant package. With a solid stainless steel construction and water resistance up to 200 meters, it’s suited for swimming, snorkeling, and other water-based activities. The 40mm case size provides a balanced presence on the wrist—substantial enough to make a statement, yet comfortable for daily wear across various wrist sizes.
Key Features
- Automatic Movement: Powered by kinetic energy from wrist movement, this self-winding mechanism ensures consistent accuracy without batteries. The movement winds itself as you wear it, making it ideal for those who prefer mechanical craftsmanship and want to avoid frequent battery changes. If worn regularly, it maintains optimal function without intervention.
- 200-Meter Water Resistance: Engineered for serious water exposure, the watch withstands depths suitable for recreational diving, swimming, and surface water sports. This level of protection means it can handle splashes, rain, showering, and extended submersion, making it a trustworthy companion in wet environments. However, it’s important to note that water resistance can degrade over time, so periodic testing is recommended for frequent divers.
- Stainless Steel Case and Band: Constructed entirely from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, both the case and bracelet offer exceptional strength and longevity. The polished finish resists tarnishing and maintains its appearance through daily wear, while the robust build protects the internal mechanics from impact and environmental stress.
- Unidirectional Rotating Bezel: Features a functional dive-ready bezel that allows divers to track elapsed time underwater safely. The bezel rotates only counterclockwise to prevent accidental overestimation of dive time—a critical safety feature. Clear, high-contrast markings ensure improved readability during submersion, even in low-visibility conditions.
- Scratch-Resistant Mineral Crystal: The dial is protected by a durable mineral crystal that resists everyday scratches and impacts. While not as hard as sapphire, it provides reliable protection for typical daily use and helps maintain clarity and appearance over time with proper care.
- Luminous Hands and Markers: Equipped with luminous elements on the hour markers and hands, the watch ensures visibility in low-light conditions or underwater environments. The glow allows for quick time checks in the dark, enhancing usability during night activities or dives.

Important Notes
This model is not discontinued and remains available for purchase. A manufacturer’s warranty is offered and can be requested directly through Invicta customer service. While the watch includes no batteries due to its automatic movement, users should ensure regular wear or use of a watch winder to maintain optimal function if not worn daily. Care should be taken to rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to preserve its finish and longevity. The mineral crystal, while scratch-resistant, is not as hard as sapphire and may show wear over time with heavy use. Proper maintenance, including periodic cleaning and servicing, will help extend the life and performance of the watch.
