The Russian Diver Watch by Invicta is a powerful black and silver timepiece done in a canteen style with a screw-cap crown and chain. The luminous hands and indexes make it easy to read the time, and the adjustable buckle on the comfy band make for a good fit. Featuring large Arabic numbers and a convenient date display just under 12 o'clock, the grand 52 millimeter stainless steel case frames the black dial with the notable Russian Diver logo in place of 12 o'clock. Water resistant to 330 feet, this eye-catcher will have people noticing, especially when paired with jeans and a t-shirt.

This watch is awesome. Even though I knew what the dimensions were when I bought, it is still amazing how big it really is when you put it on. It's a little awkward at first when you start wearing it and then you get used to it and it is awesome. It is amazing how much attention it gets from other people when they see it. I have been only swimming with it so far and it is perfect. This watch works great.

Very nice watch, big and bold, fits very comfortably on my 8" wrist. Very bright illumination, great value for the price I am quite satisfied.

The Invicta Russian Diver is a very solid watch. Well built and hefty. Very legible dial, which should be expected at 52 mm. The Diver does not have a seconds hand, which does not seem to be a big deal for this watch. All printing on the dial is lumed and it shows up brightly.
Without a doubt, the Russian Diver is a big watch, but it wears smaller than one might imagine. It sits well with a relatively low profile and is comfortable on my 6¼-inch wrist. The rubber strap has a wide footprint. That said, I own several big watches and my wrist is accustomed to hauling around big iron. The canteen and my wrist are getting along fine so far.
Two caveats:
1) Strictly speaking, the Russian Diver is not a Swiss watch. The legend below the 6 o'clock on my watch says "Swiss Movt." Research reveals "Swiss Movt" means some movement parts are manufactured in Switzerland. Other movement parts and the casework may have been manufactured elsewhere, with the watch being assembled and cased elsewhere.
2) Unscrewing the canteen reveals a smaller than expected crown. A larger crown would be easier to manipulate and improve the Russian Diver. Don't let this criticism stop you from considering this watch.
Photos don't do the Russian Diver justice. It presents much better in person. Consider a Diver if you want a cool watch that makes a statement. For the low prices that Divers are selling for these days, the Invicta Russian Diver is a good value.
