Invicta Presents Reserve Specialty Limited Edition Mechanical Tourbillon Watches
Posted in articles&news on Feb 16th, 2012 No Comments »
Invicta Reserve Specialty Limited Edition 1574 Watch
Invicta Watch Group reached a landmark in its watchmaking history in December 2011 with the launch of the Reserve Specialty Limited Edition Mechanical Tourbillon Watches. This line signified Invicta’s foray into their first mechanical models in combination with the tourbillon movement. Consisting of three timepieces of different colors, this collection is truly limited edition as each color comes in only 200 pieces.
This limited edition line is part of the Reserve collection, a completely hand-made series that tends to exhibit a pattern of round and chunky steel watches with the chronograph feature. The Reserve collection also tends to include bigger watches, and takes the title of the Invicta collection with most watches measuring 50 mm or larger in diameter. The Specialty Mechanical Tourbillon Watch follows this formula quite faithfully, with a casing of 52 mm diameter and 21 mm thickness. These types of large watches tend to aim towards the male audience, although the Reserve collection also has oversized watches for women.
The Seagull TY800 is a mechanical, Chinese-made automatic movement that powers the tourbillon, set in the case of the watch with 27 jewels. With a power reserve of about 40 hours, the mechanisms gleams with 27 jewels as it runs on 21,600 vibrations per hour. A Cote de Genève motif peeks out through the case back to adorn the Seagull TY800. These “Geneva Stripes” or Fausses Côtes are created by a special type of geometric lathe to achieve a result similar to a spirograph engraving.
Sophistication and innovation come together in the design of the Specialty Mechanical Tourbillon Watch, with a beautiful case made up of more than 48 parts. A screw-down crown and a fixed bezel emphasize the hard work put into the model’s construction, and the trademark Invicta flame-fusion crystal grips the dial of the piece. A spider-shaped decoration lies in the background, with the tourbillon cage representing its body and the metal detailing depicting its legs. The tourbillon mechanism rotates once a minute and functions as a display of seconds.
Sold at $ 2,715 for each lustrously colored model, the only difference between the pieces lie within the dial hue. The 1574 model shines with red gold, as does gun metal for model 1573, and blue achieves a cooler effect in model 1684. The tips of the hands for both hours and minutes gleam to ensure maximum legibility. The carefully built watch can withstand up to 500 meters of water pressure and is enclosed in a stainless steel, 31 mm wide bracelet.

Invicta Care Foundation donates funds to charitable causes
Posted in articles&news on Feb 12th, 2012 No Comments »
With the help of the Invicta Watch Group, the non-profit Invicta Care Foundation strives to aid overlooked areas and charitable causes by providing financial support.
The mission of the Invicta Care Foundation is to improve the life of less fortunate, overlooked and otherwise neglected areas by donating funds to pioneering organizations that work to help charitable causes. The Invicta Watch Group fully supports the efforts made by the foundation, enabling Invicta Care to donate 100 percent of all donations and sales to the organizations that aim to help areas in need. The Invicta Watch Group also pays for the foundation’s operational, marketing, production and managerial costs.
The Invicta Care Foundation has financially supported numerous multinational causes in recent years.
When Hurricane Katrina – one of the most deadly and destructive hurricanes in the history of the U.S. – hit the Gulf Coast, the Invicta Care Foundation raised $ 127,846 to support disaster relief causes. The donation was given to the Red Cross to help those in need after the hurricane wreaked havoc in several areas.
The foundation has also partnered up with Red Wing Shoes and the Nashville-based Soles4Souls, donating tens of thousands of pairs of shoes to those who were in need of them. The footwear was sent overseas to multiple countries.
The Invicta Care Foundation financially supported the Emmaus Medical Mission in helping the poverty stricken community of Mindo, Ecuador.
In 2010, the Invicta Care Foundation donated $ 15,000 in one day – during Invicta’s Sunday Run – to the Emmaus Medical Mission, an organization that serves to provide medical care and supplies to those people in need of urgent help and attention in the impoverished community of Mindo, Ecuador. The organization provides care to treat conditions and diseases such as malnutrition, diabetes and asthma. Supplies, including toothbrushes and vitamins, are also given to the community to help control personal hygiene and prevent further medical measures.
During the Sunday Run, subscribers to “The Movement” newsletter get the chance – for 24 hours – to purchase a featured luxury watch model from the Invicta collections. Since the Invicta Watch Group fully supports the foundation, 100 percent of sales from that one particular Sunday was donated to the Emmaus Medical Mission.
In another instance, the Invicta Care Foundation was able to raise $ 30,000 during a one day run event. 100 percent of those proceeds was donated to the Hetrick-Martin Institute, a New York City based non-profit organization that serves to provide social support and programming for at-risk youth. The organization particularly focuses on the needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning youth.
The Invicta Care Foundation continually seeks to support charity-based causes.

Invicta Introduces a Contemporary Art Series of Watches in 2012
Posted in articles&news on Jan 15th, 2012 No Comments »
Written by: Michael Arnold
New year, very new watches. Invicta‘s 2012 series watches are breaking the mold with designs quite like no other.
As a part of the Russian Diver Collection, Invicta has partnered with contemporary artists to design watch faces.
Native New Yorker, Erni Vales, and British artist, Nick Gentry, are commandeering this limited edition series by introducing a wave of novel looks for the watch company. These two artists collaborated in 2011, creating designs that are trendy and appealing to a younger audience.
Vales created 3 of his own timepieces for the 2012 series. All three watches have a colorful retro look, and a similar cartoon bear design on the watch dial.
Invicta's Panda Suit timepiece.
They are called Lace Twin, Leather Twin and Panda Suit; and they are certainly not “suit and tie” watches. These contemporary timepieces have industrial-looking straps that are juxtaposed by their brightly colored watch faces and cartoon bears.
Lace Twin, Leather Twin and Panda Suit take a new spin on watches. They give them a third meaning. Not only can watches be for telling time or looking nice, but they can also have an artistic appeal. They can tell a story, or be a conversation piece.
Erni Vales’ timepieces are not made for the mundane businessman. They’re made for the skateboarder, rave-goer and modern art junkie. A whole new concept in watches.
Breaking the mold, so to speak, comes with no surprise from an artist who started out tagging on the subway cars of NYC. His work, now based out of Miami, is called “Evil World.”
Nick Gentry provides an equally novel contribution to Invicta’s contemporary art series.
Gentry is fascinated with the cyber culture of the 21st Century. He is well known in the contemporary art world for his floppy disk art – creating human faces out of a compilation of floppy disks. His bold artistic messages have gained Gentry the highest level of respect in the United Kingdom’s urban art scene.
Gentry designed one very sleek watch for Invicta. Taking the namesake of one of his paintings, The Secret Key Invicta watch is super classy and unusual.
Nick Gentry – Floppy Disk Art.
Its watch dial is an interesting piece of art, and its case is rectangular and slightly arched.
The combination of its sleek leather strap and artistic interior will, perhaps, give this timepiece a broader audience.
Invicta’s art series introduces an exciting and refreshing look at watches, just in time for 2012.
