New Invicta Bolt 23855
Watches from the company Invicta today is a pure Fashion style. Here they balance very well on the verges: design-quality-price. Given such a huge number of models, which not every watch brand can boast of, of course, there were some lurid watches, but this story is definitely not about the hero of our day Invicta 23855 Bolt.
The model first appeared about 1.5 years ago and it was immediately clear that this was some kind of design admixture from the shark and reserve bolt collections. From the first, the model took the idea of fitting the strap on the case, and from the second - a metal cord.
In general, the design turned out to be very interesting. The model is really good. It is large (50 mm diameter, 19 mm thick, 194 grams weight), but nevertheless very comfortable and a big plus is that this design looks good on both small and very large hands.
The build quality is excellent. Invicta is good in details. Initially, there were some worries about the strength of the strap, and even more worries about the fact that these straps were not released separately at the start of the release of the model. Still, the mount is very specific, and only the original will get off here. So far, there have not been any requests for these belts, and invicta began to produce belts, so the initial fears about the problem of the belt have not yet materialized.
Let's go through the features!
First of all, I would like to note the carbon dial. Readability is very good. Clear separation of colors, no need to peer at anything. Good light fixtures. Shine in the dark is not super bright, but readability remains for a long time, albeit very, very faded.
Although the glass is ordinary, mineral, it is located deep under the rubber inserts and it will be very problematic to hit it. I think for this reason they did not bother with Flame Fusion branded glass. Justified savings.
The mechanism is Japanese, from the company seiko. Now Invicta is using it to the fullest in their models.
And of course, water protection ... In this model, it is professional 200 meters. At the same time, the crown is screwed down for better tightness of the case + the watch has a helium valve to stabilize the pressure when you emerge from a great depth to the surface. This is necessary so that the glass does not simply burst.
Let's summarize:
The combination of quality, design and price in this model is excellent. As a result, you get more than you pay. The only pity is that Invicta is moving further and further away from the "Swiss Made" inscription on the dial. Although this does not affect the quality, but still ...
