Greetings and welcome to the Original Invicta Forum!
The Original Invicta Forum is a moderated discussion forum for topics related to Invicta watches.
It is hoped that all discussions will be friendly, light, cheerful, helpful, and informative. All members are expected to conduct themselves accordingly.
Expressing your opinion openly in a discussion forum means that you are inviting people to both agree and disagree with you. Sometimes differences of opinion can cause tempers to flare in all of us. All members are required to discuss the points we both agree and disagree on respectfully, and with out undue anger and hostility. Name calling, profanity, antagonistic, insulting (veiled or overt) posts will be subject to moderator intervention which can include editing or deleting your posts.
Sales posts will be considered "off topic" and innapropriate in the Invicta Forum. Please do not post any messages containing references to items for sale, or messages with a commercial interest. All sales related posts belong in the Sales Forum

WHY IS THIS FORUM CALLED THE ORIGINAL INVICTA FORUM?[/b] ISN'T THERE ANOTHER INVICTA FORUM THAT'S BEEN AROUND LONGER?
Good question! Three years ago, I wanted to create an Invicta discussion Forum, as I was very passionate at that time about the young "rebel" watch company. I brought my idea to the owner of WatchUSeek.com, and asked if he would be interested in hosting my Invicta forum, to which he immediately and enthusiastically agreed. For over a year afterwards, I continued to moderate and develop the forum which I had created. It quickly became the most active, highest traffic discussion forum on all of WatchUSeek.com, and remains so to this day. I also created relationships with both Invicta and dealer sponsors to help support The Invicta Forums pressence on WatchUSeek.com. Eventually, the owner of WatchUSeek.com began interfering in how I ran my forum to the point it was clear we could no longer partner together. I resigned from WatchUSeek, and requested that the owner remove The Invicta Forum from his site. Given the popularity and revenue being generated by the Invicta Forum, the owner of WatchUSeek opted to assume control of my forum, all my ideas, and all my hard word for himself. Now, three years later, I'm starting fresh with a brand new Invicta Forum on my own site, Watch Talk Forums. But it isn't really brand new, it's the re-birth of the forum I started, the Original Invicta Forum - the way it was meant to be. A place for Invicta Fans to come together and discuss Invicta watches, and support the Invicta Watch Company.
NOTE: In the summer of 2005, WATCHUSEEK did away with their Invicta Forum.
WAS THE WUS INVICTA FORUM "ESTABLISHED IN 2000" ?
No. I didn't purchase my first Invicta (an 8926) until 2001. I didn't approach WUS about hosting an Invicta Forum until 2002. Why they claim the forum was established in 2000 is a mystery. As noted above, WUS decided to remove their Invicta Forum for unknown reasons, so now the WTF Invicta Forum is the only Invicta Forum.
