I love this watch!!!  I get compliments on it every day. Looks like a very very expensive watch. And it's strong. Just go try one on and make sure its the MK5261. People should not review low because they had trouble with a seller.  They should review the watch only!!  But I have had this watch for 2 months and I have had offers from people to buy it directly off of my wrist!  lol!  I have not and will not sell it.  Yes, it's not cheap but it's worth every dime.  I have a white diamond ceramic watch from an other company and this one stands out more.  Keep in mind the other watch was $1500!!!

This watch took a little while to get here, but it was worth the wait. Very nice watch for the price. So far, mine has kept great time. Yes you have to wind it, but that is exactly what I wanted. No battery to worry about. I've had many compliments on this watch. If you have to set the time after it's wound, DO NOT move the hour and minute hands counter clockwise. It seems to jam the 'second' hand and cant be good for the mechanical gears of the watch. But with that said; this is my favorite watch. I wear mine everyday.

I love this watch!!! Yes it's true as the other reviews mention, the leather bands are a bit tough but with time they will soften up. (I wish they were softer) But the face of the watch is beautiful. The band colors are cool. I wear it with dress and casual wear...goes great with both.

Beautiful watch, dosnt feel heavy on my wrist at all, the silicone wrist band is soft but rugged looking. I looked at a lot of watches before buying the Seastar. I compared the size and weight to my Casio G100 and my Tag Heuer 2000 Submariner. And the Seastar is lighter, prettier, and more comfortable. Excellent every day watch for the price.
**UPDATE** Wow cant believe its been a year since i bought this watch. Time flys!! I am field tech and im always out doors and working with tools. Ive slammed this watch into all kinds of objects and still not a scratch on the face or bezel. Great watch for the price.

This watch is more than I expected. It's very well made, heavy yet the band supports it on your wrist very well - wrist size dependent. The glass is incredibly think, seems to magnify the face when viewed from an angle. Masculine and ruggedly sophisticated.  Exactly what I was looking for.

I bought this for myself for Christmas as I've needed a watch for some time. I wanted one for less than $100 and two-tone with silver and gold so I could wear it with both silver and gold toned jewelry. The face of the watch is super pretty in person. The images don't do it justice. I don't know much about watch engineering but I can tell you it works well. I set it to match the time on my cell phone and so far, it's still keeping the same time.

Very happy with my purchase. Worth every penny... and more.

I picked the Invicta 5070 up for my girlfriend during a recent Amazon sale.

The watch arrived within 2 days of ordering, and it has exceeded expectations.

It is solid, stylish, and my girlfriend has stated that it is "...as nice as any watch I've ever owned."  For the price `$80.00, it's tough to beat this watch.  The mother of pearl face is accented by the brown stripe in the bracelet, and the bracelet itself is very nice.  The latch mechanism is positive, the timekeeping thus far is exemplary, and overall she couldn't be happier (unless the Invicta box actually contained an engagement ring....)

She's gotten a ton of complements on this watch.  I rate it 5/5 stars.

I bought this because of the reviews  and the price point. Also, there are only 2 manufacturers of swiss automatic movements so I felt the movement would be reliable.  I have worn it daily for over a year and I could not be more pleased.  I literally never take it off, including in the shower.  It has held up nicely and still looks great. I often get compliments on the watch and I work in the business world where Rolex DateJust is basically the uniform. Up close the craftsmanship is quite nice ad on par with Tissot.  I would highly recommend this watch at twice the price point. The only downside is that no one has heard of the brand...  Update: (1/25/2018)  I continue to wear this watch every day without exception. It keeps perfect time and still looks absolutely great. It is not showing  wear because of a design aspect I did not appreciate at first. The gold plated parts of the band are recessed with the stainless parts protecting them so the gold plating is not prone to wearing off as with so many other bands that are not solid gold.  This may be the best value in a quality mans watch that I have ever experienced!

I absolutely love this watch. I was incredibly surprised by its size when I received it in the mail. The strap and the head are very lady-like and small. It looks so nice that I don't even worry about taking it off when I dress up. I bought this watch in early April and it has been through a lot, I wear it every day and took it to Air Force Field Training, its traveled with me through Europe. I love it. Something did however happen to it yesterday when I was swimming in the ocean (which I have done plenty of times before). Somehow water did get in and now the numbers are slowly fading away. BUT I like the watch so much, that even with that malfunction I am buying another one.

I purchased this watch about 3 months ago for 29.99, I has very skeptical because of the low price.  The watch has been great!  I was able to resize the band myself easily, and after that, I have not taken it off.  I wear it 24/7, shower and all.  The reason I decided to write a review today is because I am back to order a 2nd one for my son.  Both my son an me are very hard on watches, we usually buy the $10 type from Target because we break expensive watches or get water in them about once per year.  But this Casio is tough, water tight and very comfortable.  This watch is worth every penny, excellent time keeper, execellent looking and I have recieved many compliments about the styling and yellow face.  I hope you are as happy with yours as I am with mine.  I would have easily paid $99 for this watch now that I have had it and know how execellent a product it is.

In love with this watch. Bought it as a gift and wanted to keep it for myself. Better than expected

I researched many watches looking for the features this watch has,in the $100 to $150 range....I wanted an easy to read dial, solar powered, with a black face. Never owned a solar watch, and have never owned an expansion band, (which I was a little apprehensive about) but decided on this one because of a great sale price, and it had all the features I was looking for. I am totally in love with this watch! For the money it is fantastic! A very nice looking and functioning watch. Quick easy to read dial, the solar function works perfectly (make sure you charge it up initially as they recommend)... this watch keeps perfect time. I have not had to adjust it since I purchased it. The expansion band was easy to adjust, looks great and is very comfortable. I don't understand why some reviewers had trouble sizing it, I found it very easy to adjust to my wrist. Great band. I really don't even know the watch is there. I agree with other reviewers the second hand is not really easy to see, but in the proper light I can see it fine when I need to. I don't really use the second hand much anyway so this was not a big deal to me. I can totally recommend this watch. If you are considering it, go for it, you shouldn't be
disappointed, I wasn't.

Overall, I'm very happy with this watch and would purchase it again (at the deep discount from the MSRP) without hesitation.

At 49 mm in diameter and 15 mm thick, this watch is pretty beefy, but not comically large.  The skeletonized, see-through case offers a unique a look at the inner workings of the watch and really sets this piece apart from the others in my collection. It keeps great time. I've had the watch for a month now and it's only lost about a minute as compared to the clock on my cell phone.  The crystal seems strong and scratch resistant as well.  No scratches, scuffs, or markings and I've surely banged it against a few things since purchase.

As a mechanical watch, it draws its power from daily winding.  One full wind lasts almost two days, but I make it a point to wind it daily, as recommended by Invicta.  For me, winding is a minor inconvenience in exchange for knowing that this will never end up in the battery-powered watch graveyard in my sock drawer.

I'm more than a little disappointed in the watch band through.  The polyurethane is basically just plastic, which limits how versatile the watch can be.  As it is, I'm comfortable wearing the watch in casual to business casual situations.  It might look silly in any classier situation than that though.  The band has also already begun getting scuffed.  There are black marks along areas that brush up against external objects.  I suspect they will not wash off.  It also required trips to several jewlers before finding one that could resize the band.  Apparently the pins in the band are a bit more difficult to remove and replace than a typical watch.

One other minor complaint is the instruction booklet that comes with the watch.  Apparently Invicta only has one booklet that it sends out with all of its products, so it does not offer instructions specific to each watch it sells.  This left me guessing at whether some of the warnings and instructions in the booklet applied to this watch.  For example, the booklet warns that if a watch features a "screw down" crown, simply pulling it out to set the time will diminish the watch's water resistance.  Nowhere did it say whether this watch features a screw down crown.  (Unless I'm performing the "unscrewing" incorrectly, the Sea Spider doesn't.  I just wish the booklet had at least listed which watches this instruction applied to).

From other reviews of this and other watches, Invicta customer service apparently leaves a lot to be desired.  I can't comment on this because I fortunately haven't had to deal with them yet.

*** UPDATE ***

Less than one week after my one-year warranty lapsed, the winding mechanism in the watch broke. I've dropped my review down to two stars to reflect the shoddy long-term quality of the piece. This will be the last Invicta watch I buy. Very disappointing.

I had been looking to replace a watch that broke a few weeks back.  I fly on a USAF surveillance aircraft and I am very picky about what type of watch I wear while flying.  It must be lightweight, easy to read, durable (since I'm always hitting it on something in the jet) and most of all it must have a world time function.  After looking intensely for a week or so I came across this watch and thought it might be the one.  After receiving the watch, let me tell you, it has exceeded expectations in a big way!  Not only does it perform all the functions I need it too flawlessly, it is also solar powered. This means that as long as it gets some sunshine (which it does at 30,000 feet) I don't have to worry that it might die on me at anytime!  My only gripe is the light, I wish it would light the entire face. But that is a minor issue compared to how great the watch feels and performs!

I received the watch about a month ago and have loved wearing it.

At first it was a challenge to adjust the titanium band.  My advice is to watch out when taking out the links that you don't misplace some very small tubular spacers that WILL come out when you remove the pins.

Everything works perfectly.  The time and date are easy to read.  The various modes are intuitive.  The watch is VERY functional.

Apparently casio solved the issue of making the watch smaller.  It fits perfectly and stylishly on my smaller than average wrist.  It looks like a normal, but very nice sports watch.  Thank goodness it doesn't look like a PDA strapped to your arm!  The discrete silver/black/grey finish matches my entire wardrobe.

I love that the watch is solar and will never run out of batteries in normal use.  I also like the way it will automatically synchronize with the atomic clock via radio signals without any prompting from me and it reports the time it last successfully did so.

The compass, barometer, and altimeter are great features to have, especially for the outdoorsman.  They seem to work well.  American wearers will need to figure out from the manual how to display the default metric units of meausure into feet, inches of mercury, etc.  But once you change the setting, you don't have to think about it.  Casio also made sure it's water resistant to 100M, which is an essential feature for a water-sports lover like me.

One thing I would like to have is the ability to have the light stay on as long as I hold the button.  Currently it will stay on for exactly 2 seconds per button press and then turn off.  However, there is an autolight feature that will turn it on momentarily when you raise your wrist to look at the watch (nifty).  Still, it would be nice to be able to use the watch as an mini flashlight of sorts when in a pinch (as I did occasionally with my previous watch) by holding down the light button.

Overall, this is my finest watch purchase yet and I can't think of any truly big negatives to mention.  My view of this watch is overwhelmingly positive.  I have really enjoyed wearing it so far.

Love this watch. Exceeded expectations. Makes me happy every day when I put it on.
