Thanks for the info, Derek.

Personally, I find all look-a-like watches to be a bit cheesy (I'd rather own, say, a Seiko Kinetic, that a Submariner or Seamaster wannabe for the same money), but these Invicta watches are interesting at the very least.

Joining the Omega "club" in the UK is easy anyway, with Omega-sponsored interest free credit deals everywhere. When I bought mine from Goldsmiths it only cost me eighty-five quid a month for ten months, which wasn't too painful.
