Sorry guys, T25 has a very mellow glow, and any ambient light at ALL in the room makes it impossible to see. PITA to shoot, not gonna do it. Especially because you guys wanted Tritium, you know exactly what to expect.... so we're all good. __________________

I love the caseback design. The strap is not very impressive. I was hoping for a SAN III or IV platform (case) for these tubes. But, maybe that would have brought the price point way too high. The dial design is OK, I guess. To be fair, tritium tubes limit what one can do with the dial design. I'm looking forward to what Android is going to do with their tritium tube lumed watch. However, again, that caseback design is pretty awesome.

"Swiss Movement" ... since it is not Swiss Made should make this watch affordable down well below $400. I like the dial/face but wish it was on a bracelet. The case back is interesting but ... but ... interesting is about all I can say about it I guess.


Not a bad overall watch but it will all depend on the strap/length and the bottom line cost. If its over $350 for a non Swiss made watch than its for surely a big no but if its under $350 it will have to be considered and if its under $300 it might just make it home depending on the strap/length but I was seriously hoping since it was an Selita movement that it would have been a Swiss Made watch. It is a very nice watch and something that Invicta has been mentioning for well over a year now but depending on the price at the time of airing there is a tubed DB that calls a little louder.

Pro's: Tritium Tubes Classic Case Size Killer Caseback!!!!!! 500m W/R Sellita SW200 26 Jewel Automatic Con's: Silicone Strap is OK, prefer SS Bracelet similiar to the Reserve Pro Diver Wimpy Second Hand, No Lum???? Scallop Bezel is OK, prefer Coin Edge Bezel Remove the Old School "Grand Diver" engraving on the case I'm on the fence with this GD, after waiting 8 month I'm just a little disappointed. Maybe I'll have to wait and see if Eyal puts a Selitta SW200 in the New 47mm Reserve Pro Diver case! __________________

If its over $350 for a non Swiss made watch than its for surely a big no but if its under $350 it will have to be considered and if its under $300 it might just make it home depending on the strap/length but I was seriously hoping since it was an Selita movement that it would have been a Swiss Made watch. It is a very nice watch and something that Invicta has been mentioning for well over a year now but depending on the price at the time of airing there is a tubed DB that calls a little louder. The problem is that you're assuming costs that you don't actually know. Prices of movements, construction, new tooling, plus all of the costs associated with using T25 (raw material, manufacture and dial-set, import costs and taxes, etc)... you can't just make up a price and justify it without knowing how much it really costs. That's like me saying that a Ferrari should cost $30,000 and making up a bunch of prices with no factual background... __________________

Sneak Peek threads are to show you exciting new items coming soon... not for debate, not for negativity ("Meh, I don't like it".... then simply don't post on this thread, easy enough), and are done as a favor to those who might need a longer heads-up in order to prioritize the $ or save up the $ to be able to buy what they are interested in. __________________
