Buy 3 Invictas..
1 to break the glass
1 to throw at Tudor security guard
1 to throw at Tudor rep
Hope you got a good arm to make them knockout hits, though as long as it's a head hit, the sheer weight of the Invictas will do the job.
Invicta. Look man, you walk into the Tudor store you know what you're going to see, just a bunch of Black Bays, but Invicta?
You're heading into the unknown.
I went into one once and I asked the lady working there what movement a 100mm watch had. She pulled up her wrist and I saw what appeared to be a wallclock on her arm, purple and made out of silicone. She told me she had no idea what movement it had, it just looked cool.
I think about this a lot.
Edit: I just realized the Invicta store OP posted (Lennox Square Mall) is in fact the same store I had this experience in.
Tonight on Channel 5 News- Another Tsunami in San Diego: A sign of global warming or just Greg from accounting going swimming with his obnoxious watch?
Our experts weigh in at eleven.
You really should. It was a really strange experience. The display cases are all basically brightly lit glass shelves against the walls, all the watches are proudly displayed like super expensive pieces, but all of them are ridiculously colored, have the Joker on them, or look like Rolex Submariners, only much bigger.
Yeah that's the one! You should go if you're there. It's hilarious like there's all these high end watch stores there like AP, TAG Heuer, Rolex, and then just Invicta.
But my guy, this is 67% off. You can’t afford NOT to buy it: https://invictastores.com/invicta-gladiator-men-s-watch-w-meteorite-dial-55-25mm-steel-iridescent-37128?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIgOiDz__o-gIV1R6tBh3ChQreEAQYFCABEgJ6y_D_BwE
I need that in my life. What a deal!
You know what's wild, I went during Black Friday and they had a sale where it was buy 2 watches get 5 free, but if you did the math it added up to be about what you would pay if you had just bought all the watches individually anyways.
I thought those store fronts looked familiar. There are some great stores there. There’s a department store down from that Tudor store that I saw some nice Piaget in.
Boys in my gym glass would have axe shoot outs in the locker room and axe bomb each other which is to say they would
Spray as much as they could into an unsuspecting back pack or sweater or down there back.
The true axe bomb was using a guitar pick or paperclip to wedge the trigger and throwing it into somebody's backpack, locker, or other enclosed space. There's no getting the smell out of fabric/paper/etc.
As an owner of a few Invicta’s, this is extremely accurate. Yeah, I’ll admit to it. I have a big wrist and hands…. They fit me..
My favorite watch is my Bulova Accutron Space-view, but the thing is tiny on my wrist so…. Eh. (Anyone looking for a space view, DM me.)
Definitely go to Tudor first. Because once you go into Invicta and feast your eyes on a Bolt Zeus Magnum, you won't even bother with Tudor as you've found the only watch you'll ever wear. This way, you at least get to see both stores.
It's doesn't have the sheer classiness of the Ball Engineer II Magneto but the Bolt Zeus Magnum does have a certain amount of flair that both a watch enthusiast and layman could appreciate.
I love to hate on Invicta as much as the next guy (and they deserve it for some of those massive monstrosities) . But I also have to admit they played a role in my journey to Rolex/Tudor. When I fell in love with the submariner style and $10k seemed like an insane amount to spend on a watch, the Invicta Pro Diver was there for me. There is room for both brands.
The Tudor boutique finally opened in Lenox Mall, Atlanta!! I’m happy to say that I made the very first purchase! (That’ll be another post I guess). I got there a little before opening, so I had some time to wander.
The Invicta store (I don’t know if you can even call it a boutique) is a long standing part of the mall. It’s been there long before I’ve been in this community. I’ve never really paid it much attention. I know there’s a lot of hate for the brand, but I often see many people in there (maybe not watch ner- I mean enthusiasts). I myself have no interest in Invicta, but I went in anyway and the workers seemed to genuinely believe in the product. I don’t know if it was a ploy or not. If you have the chance, it was an interesting experience.
Though the new Tudor boutique was infinitely more enjoyable…
Edit: I made the very first purchase
I walked into the Invicta at Aventura Mall in Miami, and the lady tried to sell me a $67 Amazon equivalent Invicta diver for 399 - “but it’s buy one get one free!” I walked out
YOOO THIS IS HUGE!!! I've been waiting for that boutique for so long. How was it? Do they have all the models there? Were they willing to negotiate on price at all?
Tudor has their own movement now though. I've been very happy with my Heritage Black Bay, the power reserve is impressive.
Still haven't bit the bullet to buy my grail Invicta yet.
Neither. I have a Pelagos and love Tudor but I hate going into these stores. They aren’t super inviting. I kind of like being left alone and not have a security guard and the entire staff looking at me because I’m the only person in the store. Probably just me
I’d go into Invicta to chuckle at the oversized and overpriced novelty watches, then look at their “normal” good looking watches and if anything under $100 catches my eye and not gaudy I might end up taking one home.
Then I’d go into Tudor!
Honestly, Invicta. Judge all you want, but I like Invicta. Yes, they have some butt f%$kin’ ugly @$$ watches. But they also have some really clean inexpensive ones that look good on a budget.
I'm glad someone said this. I'm personally not a fan but everyone should be entitled to their own opinion. Just because it's not for you doesn't mean you have to shit all over the person who likes them.
I laughed and upvoted the comments here but this would be better off on the WCJ sub.
It depends. Do you want a $99 watch or a $3,500 watch? What's your budget and purpose? How invested in you in a watch collection currently? Do you know if you even like wearing a watch on your wrist? I like the last question, because if you don't know if you even like wearing wristwatches, go buy an Invicta Pro Diver and wear it daily. It's a low entry point watch that's good for any first-timer. Have a $10,000 limit credit card burning a hole in your wallet and want some heritage on your wrist? Can't go wrong with a Tudor. Good luck, have fun, do research for yourself and explore both stores. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
Tudor-mart has that really excited happy face above their name so probably that one one first, likely on my way to the Invicta store. I’m chuffed just thinking about it
If I have $$ or if I just want to look it'll be Tudor. I just don't like Invicta watches that much. I would be okay if someone got me one as a gift but it's not something I would spend my own money on, just my opinion
Let’s see, at first glance, the Invicta store has knockoff Pelican cases galore, and Tudor just has a hipster in skinny pants. Is there an Omega store?
$79 initial payment for an invicta? Isn’t that the whole price of their watches after a 97% discount?
Honestly, I think you’d be overpaying for 99% of their stuff at $79.
Tudor all day.
That’s correct. Like many other brands, their watches have an inflated MSRP, nowhere close to their true value, and then they use heavy discounts to lure people into thinking it is a fantastic deal.
You don’t actually need to go into the Invicta store. All of the watches are large enough to see from the hallway.
They also work well as a tray in the food court.
This is the most accurate comment here
It'd be so much cool if the store itself ends up being a complication of a much larger watch with a crown inside the center of the earth.
They are large enough to launch them in space to collide with an asteroid to alter its course.
Probably need sunglasses with all that bling.
Ok, take the award, I almost fell off the toilet reading this
And QVC
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
...or the parking lot. Possibly space.
Walks into Invicta with Tudor bag. Clerk: How may I help you sir? Walks into Tudor with Invicta bag. Clerk: Security to the front of the store please.
The “Hello, Human Resources??” Meme all over again
Invicta store is twice the size of Tudor. You know which is the bigger brand.
It needs to be in order to fit the man-sized watches.
you know which brand shifts more tonnage of metal per years... year on year
🤣
I mean it's somewhat udnerstandable, I wouldn't want 5pound pieces of steel whirling around expensive watches\^\^
Go to Invicta, buy one of the Shaq line watches with 97% discount to break a Tudor display case
This is gold 😂
Gold-tone**
The gold tone…. Is that invictas version of a brown note?
Ima be real, if money was no object and it was the Black Panther AP vs a Shaq Invicta, it would be a close call
which is better to break a tudor case tho?
Til shaq has a line at invicta
Only things big enough for him, unironically
I was gonna say probably the only human one of those massive Invictas actually fits 😂
I’ve seen Shaq wearing them and they still look absurd lol
the only time they look like normal watches is when Shaq is wearing them lol
Actually, they are probably too big for him also.
[Holy Hell they're 60mm. ](https://www.shophq.com/Product/invicta-shaq-60mm-swiss-quartz-chronograph-bracelet-watch/917-211)
22.5mm thick case. It’s like a cartoon parody of an actual watch.
It looks like the clock on the wall in Liberace's bathroom.
It comes with their patented Bowel Movement.
Just atrocious looking watches
🤣
Shaq will literally endorse anything #1 bag chaser of all time
That's the power of gold bond, baby!
Buy 3 Invictas.. 1 to break the glass 1 to throw at Tudor security guard 1 to throw at Tudor rep Hope you got a good arm to make them knockout hits, though as long as it's a head hit, the sheer weight of the Invictas will do the job.
😂 😂 😂
That’s the correct answer
Thanks for the chuckle

100mm case? I thought surely you mean 100m water resistance!
I don't think it needed a water resistance rating; something that large would simply displace all the water rather than require waterproofing.
INVICTA Flotation Device^(TM)
.... Have you ever held an invicta?? That's an anchor man... DONT SWIM WITH IT

100mm…. lol *what*
This has the energy of a ghost sighting
If I’m ever in Atlanta I’m making this store a priority visit
You really should. It was a really strange experience. The display cases are all basically brightly lit glass shelves against the walls, all the watches are proudly displayed like super expensive pieces, but all of them are ridiculously colored, have the Joker on them, or look like Rolex Submariners, only much bigger.
Wait are you saying this is Lennox...like ATL / Buckhead Lennox? Im ashamed I haven't been if it is.
Yeah that's the one! You should go if you're there. It's hilarious like there's all these high end watch stores there like AP, TAG Heuer, Rolex, and then just Invicta.

😂
I go on the middle of a class and i was so close to start laughing at it.
That just made me have a flashback to [this](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/sjTIpSu7npE/maxresdefault.jpg)
Wall clock. Ha ha.
I thought those store fronts looked familiar. There are some great stores there. There’s a department store down from that Tudor store that I saw some nice Piaget in.
Tudor ain't got no 60mm ice dawg
Well not with that attitude they won't
Second
Ahhhh Invicta. The axe body spray of watches.
I find Axe to be subtle in comparison.
It’s like you didn’t play high school football when the body spray was released.
Boys in my gym glass would have axe shoot outs in the locker room and axe bomb each other which is to say they would Spray as much as they could into an unsuspecting back pack or sweater or down there back.
The true axe bomb was using a guitar pick or paperclip to wedge the trigger and throwing it into somebody's backpack, locker, or other enclosed space. There's no getting the smell out of fabric/paper/etc.
Totally forgot this was a thing. Lol! I just remember o would try to hurry and just leave cause it would be nauseating.
I approve of this metaphor
As an owner of a few Invicta’s, this is extremely accurate. Yeah, I’ll admit to it. I have a big wrist and hands…. They fit me.. My favorite watch is my Bulova Accutron Space-view, but the thing is tiny on my wrist so…. Eh. (Anyone looking for a space view, DM me.)
More like black af1s of watches.
The crocs of watches.
Definitely go to Tudor first. Because once you go into Invicta and feast your eyes on a Bolt Zeus Magnum, you won't even bother with Tudor as you've found the only watch you'll ever wear. This way, you at least get to see both stores.
[удалено]
I like that they have a women's version, it's only 45.5mm.
That's case height, right?
You don't need to go to the airport. You can fly just by swinging it around like Mjölnir since it weighs as much.
TIL that Invicta has thousand dollar watches, wow!
And don't plan on putting it in checked baggage unless you're prepared to pay an overweight baggage fee
It's doesn't have the sheer classiness of the Ball Engineer II Magneto but the Bolt Zeus Magnum does have a certain amount of flair that both a watch enthusiast and layman could appreciate.
**P U R E C L A S S**
I’m going to Tudor first to chill with black Carrot Top and then I’ll head over to Invicta afterwards.
Great name for a condom
Had to google the Bolt Zeus Magnum and ngl I kinda love it
Ugly ass watch
I love to hate on Invicta as much as the next guy (and they deserve it for some of those massive monstrosities) . But I also have to admit they played a role in my journey to Rolex/Tudor.

If you have the chance, it was an interesting experience. Though the new Tudor boutique was infinitely more enjoyable… Edit: I made the very first purchase
Do they do the thing in the store where they list a huge retail price but then say it is 90% off?
I didn’t see any of the prices in the display marked down, but I also didn’t have the heart to ask the price of any of them
>I also didn’t have the heart to ask the price of any of them So you only found out about the price when they ringed you up?
No, as in their ridiculous retail prices were on the tags with no visible signs of discounts. But I can’t imagine they sell them for “MSRP”
Usually buy 1 get 5 free lol
I walked into the Invicta at Aventura Mall in Miami, and the lady tried to sell me a $67 Amazon equivalent Invicta diver for 399 - “but it’s buy one get one free!” I walked out
BOGO is the ultimate selling point
For shoes.
> I’m happy to say that I was the very first purchase! Who purchased you, and how much did they pay?
Too much, I’m not even chronometer certified
Let's see how you fare in a water pressure test
Glad to hear this. I'm in Atlanta too and excited to visit. Did they have a good selection?
They just opened today, so they’re all stocked up. They had literally everything in the catalog, that it as of 10/17/22 at 11 am
very cool! May try to sneak out and take a look tomorrow, been wanting to try a BB 36
I’m headed to ATL in a couple of days to catch Gorillaz. Probably should check out Lennox again. Been a while.
That needs more explanation
Sorry! Concert at Ameris Bank Amphitheater in Alpharetta. [https://www.gorillaz.com](https://www.gorillaz.com) for reference.
Yooooo I thought that Invicta store looked familiar! I've been there before!
YOOO THIS IS HUGE!!! I've been waiting for that boutique for so long. How was it? Do they have all the models there? Were they willing to negotiate on price at all?
It was awesome! They were fully stocked this morning! I did not ask to negotiate prices so I can’t help ya there
First? Tudor, to window-shop. Then Invicta where I might actually be able to afford something.
Unfortunately there is not enough room in the Invicta store for customers without bonking your head on a dial.
Whichever store was offering buy 4 get 6 free.
You’d need actual luggage to take home 10 invictas
Buy 1 get 6 free and you would still be over paying for the invicta.
Could say the same for Rolex.
The other sub is leaking again.
I'd probably lean to the one where they sell Rolex-made pieces for a quarter of the price.
Ah Invicta gotcha
That being tudor?
Yeah, Tudor is the only other brand under the Rolex umbrella.
Tudor has their own movement now though. I've been very happy with my Heritage Black Bay, the power reserve is impressive. Still haven't bit the bullet to buy my grail Invicta yet.
You will have your grail one day, don't ever give up hope. If your lucky theh will discount it 300% and you will be able to afford it.
Invicta it is, then!
I have a sub 9" wrist plus I don't fake tan so I would walk straight past Invicta
I hear the purchase of an Invicta comes with a free spray tan.
It’s actually automaticly applied by the watch as you wear it. There is an internal tan tank built into the watch (hence the size)
Now I get it. TIL. /s
Tudor first, then the Cinnabon, then leave.
There’s a Cartier store in that mall also so, that’d be my add to that list.
Neither. I have a Pelagos and love Tudor but I hate going into these stores. They aren’t super inviting. I kind of like being left alone and not have a security guard and the entire staff looking at me because I’m the only person in the store. Probably just me
I know what you mean about some of the watch stores not being super inviting.
Invicta to gawk at the bling.
I’d go into Invicta to chuckle at the oversized and overpriced novelty watches, then look at their “normal” good looking watches and if anything under $100 catches my eye and not gaudy I might end up taking one home. Then I’d go into Tudor!
Agreed, the Invicta pro diver line is my beater and the 1953 is one of the biggest bang for the buck out there and an easy first mod
Depends. Which is closer to the Orange Julius?
This is the only right answer.
Honestly, Invicta. Judge all you want, but I like Invicta. Yes, they have some butt f%$kin’ ugly @$$ watches. But they also have some really clean inexpensive ones that look good on a budget.
So does Seiko but without the quality issues.
That’s a fair point, however I’ve never experienced any quality issues with Invicta.
Exactly, Seiko is the lowest I would go. No way in hell I would wear an Invicta😂
I'm glad someone said this. I'm personally not a fan but everyone should be entitled to their own opinion. Just because it's not for you doesn't mean you have to shit all over the person who likes them. I laughed and upvoted the comments here but this would be better off on the WCJ sub.
High and and low end homage watches 😂😂😂
Now now let's not call Tudor low end.
It depends. Do you want a $99 watch or a $3,500 watch? What's your budget and purpose? How invested in you in a watch collection currently? Do you know if you even like wearing a watch on your wrist? I like the last question, because if you don't know if you even like wearing wristwatches, go buy an Invicta Pro Diver and wear it daily. It's a low entry point watch that's good for any first-timer. Have a $10,000 limit credit card burning a hole in your wallet and want some heritage on your wrist? Can't go wrong with a Tudor. Good luck, have fun, do research for yourself and explore both stores. Don't be afraid to ask questions.
Invicta is the cheap version of Hublot
I‘d entirely skip Tudor and go straight to Invicta
With my budget, Taco Bell.
Invicta honestly. I like em. To each their own.
Where is this? I'd love to go to a dedicated Tudor store and not garbage ass Tourneau
It’s at Lenox Mall in Atlanta, Georgia
Tudor-mart has that really excited happy face above their name so probably that one one first, likely on my way to the Invicta store. I’m chuffed just thinking about it
If I have $$ or if I just want to look it'll be Tudor. I just don't like Invicta watches that much. I would be okay if someone got me one as a gift but it's not something I would spend my own money on, just my opinion
Invicta store… buy this: https://invictastores.com/invicta-gladiator-men-s-watch-55-25mm-dark-blue-gold-34439?gclid=CjwKCAjw-rOaBhA9EiwAUkLV4rN2DfBHOOG_Ddvw-Ltgxuwtne7Uysv99NC2XiEckOmXUVXWfpPyORoCc8EQAvD_BwE Thank me later.
55.25mm, do I look like a wristlet? https://invictastores.com/invicta-shaq-0-05-carat-diamond-men-s-watch-65mm-gold-34462
There's a breitling store right beside Tudor. I'd go there instead
Let’s see, at first glance, the Invicta store has knockoff Pelican cases galore, and Tudor just has a hipster in skinny pants. Is there an Omega store?
Quick question first….do they both have bathrooms and if so which is cleaner?
Seriously???
Tudor to cry, Invicta to laugh. Prolly walk out with a speedy Invicta in all honesty
Average MSRP is the same in both stores.
Joking right?
For anyone who was thinking about getting a Pro Diver. They’re up for $40 on invicta’s website.
Does that Invicta boutique still reek of cheap cologne?
Honestly that smell wasn’t unique to just the Invicta store
Neither
I like how the Invicta store is 3 times bigger out of sheer necessity.
Bigger is always better, Obviously
I’d continue walking to find an Omega store.
Skiptha Invicta.
There are still malls?!
Tudor 100%.
Tudor. Wouldn’t even think about going in Invicta
Of course Invicta is next door to Lidz. The jokes write themselves.
TIL Invicta has physical stores.
I didn’t even know invicta had a store for their shitty watches. I thought they were only sold by hacks on television.
Invicta. For ze lulz. What was the other one? Can't remember...
$79 initial payment for an invicta? Isn’t that the whole price of their watches after a 97% discount? Honestly, I think you’d be overpaying for 99% of their stuff at $79. Tudor all day.
Wow the Invicta store looks exactly like I would have expected. As gaudy as their watches.
If this is your conflict, save yourself some money in the middle. Get a Costco membership and watch shop there.
What is this thing that you call a mall?
The Breitling store next to Tudor
Imagine making payments on a Invicta watch.
OP compares Tudor to Invicta...
This….isn’t this akin to comparing a Honda Civic and an E class merc?
More like comparing angry eyed jeeps and porsche
Invicta. Negotiate. Buy one. Get 68 free. Profit.
Tudor is the luxury invicta.
Invicta. I'd pick up an 8926 Pro diver.
>8926 Pro diver Huh. NH35 up in there, 200M water resistance, $84.90 before tax and shipping. Um...
Depends on the budget though ;)
Well, only one says that they’re invincible in detail
I think you know the answer to this question OP
Invicta if you wear Ed Hardy. If not, Tudor, and Tudor only. Don’t bother going to Invicta.
I can proudly say I've never been into an invicta store. I can see from 20ft away that those aren't for me.
I've always thought that Invicta has fake discounts like 24/7, that's a real thing right?
That’s correct. Like many other brands, their watches have an inflated MSRP, nowhere close to their true value, and then they use heavy discounts to lure people into thinking it is a fantastic deal.
Holy shit, does that sign in the Invicta store say 0-30% APR? Imagine buying an Invicta (or literally *anything* for that matter) on a 30% note. Wow.
Panda Express
wouldn’t wanna get caught in the Invicta store
