Real vs. Copy
The Invicta 2248 on the right was my first automatic watch. It was cool because it looked like a Omega Seamaster -- it was a weird mash-up of an Omega Seamaster (blue color, scalloped bezel, background) with a Rolex Submariner (hands, markers, bracelet, size, magnification lens). Now, it just looks cheesy next to the real deal.
Invicta Model #2470
This watch was left/stolen at the bennigans on I-drive and westwood blvd near sea world in Orlando FL, had the yellow/tan band on at the time.
