Zodiac is a brand that many adventurists hold in high regard. Similar to Breitling, Zodiac embodies the features anyone rugged would find useful in a watch. With price points at an attainable $ 700-900, Zodiac watches are the best choice for timepieces that can survive just about anything.

Zodiac collections

Faces of Zodiac's Collection of Rugged Watches

 

The popular Racer collection of Swiss-made Zodiac watches features a variety of chronographs with exposed lugs, oversized faces, and stopwatch pushers that resemble the pedals of a car. Popular in racing circuits, the Zodiac Racer offers 7 different styles of ion-plated grey, black or silver stainless steel and titanium cases contained by either rubber or stainless steel wrist bands.

Made with similar materials, rugged styling, and with surprisingly fewer standard features, the Breitling Colt Chronograph (below, right) and the Breitling SuperOcean Heritage Chronograph range from $ 3850-$ 5650. Neither Brietling uses titanium or any precious metal and neither chronographs are standard so if you find those features useful for whatever you do, you’d have to pay extra for it.

Zodiac’s Special Ops collection has illuminating LED backlight around the dial and behind each accent so you can even see your watch in the dark, perfect for those Swiss-timed stealth missions. Besides the price, the only stark difference between the Zodiac and the Breitling is certification. Breitling’s self-winding movement is officially chronometer-certified by the COSC, which is the French acronym for the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute. Breitling is also water-resistant up to 660 feet. Zodiac’s Diver collection features 16 styles that all get 20 ATM or better.

Now if you’re after something a bit more stylish, Emporio Armani timepieces offer the name brand, some decent features all at a price below Zodiac. The Emporio Armani Sportivo watch offers 20 different styles ranging from ion-plated stainless steel to an array of colors matched with silicone or steel bands. Two silicone-banded models are water-resistant up to 20 ATM–yes, the same 660 feet Breitlings get. From $ 300-475 the Sportivo Emporio Armani watches rely more on the brand’s namesake than anything else and is more fashion-focused. While the silicone bands and designs are sports-inspired, the Sportivo line only offers two models that have water-resistance that many adventurists look for and none of them have chronographs.

Emporio Armani Sportivo

Sportivo handles 660 feet depth and flaunts the Armani label too.

Of the three sports watches, Zodiac combines fashion and function with chronographs fitted with unique pushers, LED backlighting, rugged appeal and a water resistance that can take you beyond all human limits. The Breitling does the same thing, but is water resistant up to 660 feet and is COSC-certified. But all that comes at a hefty $ 5000 price tag and again, you’ll have to pay extra for the chronograph that comes on all but a few Zodiacs. COSC-certified or not, the Swiss-made Zodiac is the best buy that boasts it’s own unique style and rugged construction that can take it as you take on the elements.

The Royal Oak comes in many different shapes and sizes, and this year, we saw two completely new sizes – both 41mm and 37mm.  We’ve shown you the Jumbo, the watch the harkens back to 1972, but in this post we explain you the other Royal Oaks that you need to know.  These are the watches that, in most cases, one will be buying. These two watches feature AP’s excellent 3120 in-house movement and are absolutely perfect for daily wear.  Below, we show you live pictures of all the new releases, show you how they compare to the Jumbo, and how they differ from the previous 15300 Royal Oak that is now discontinued.  We also give you pricing on the entire Royal Oak line. 

This is a good one, people.

Question by Joe A

Does anyone know the best place to purchase a movado watch. I know there are alot of people on the internet selling fake movado watches. I just want to be sure before i shell out 1000 dollars on a watch that its real and its new.

Best answer:

Answer by misss.
Why don’t you try going to a movado outlet store? i know they exist because my dad actually goes to one. I guess it depends where you live- but most likely you’ll fine movado outlets at outlet malls/centers. For example, my family lives in Illinois, so we go to a place named Gurnee Mills- and there’s a Movado Outlet there. There’s other places around here too, but like I said- it all depends where you live. If there’s no places around your state/ home then you should wait until a jewelry store or a watch place has some on sale. If you want to buy one off the internet, make sure that they give you a valid certificate of authenticity and that you contact the seller before buying anything.

Question by rl

What tips are there for getting the best deal? I’m assuming buying luxury watches are like buying cars, which means there is much flexibility in pricing. However, there are so many variables to consider. I’ve heard that certain brands have limitations due to contract with the manufacturer, and then it depends on the store. And then it also depends on if the watch model is new or not…

Also, does the current economy give me the leverage to negotiate harder, such as possibly 35% discount versus 25%? Luxury watches are discretionary purchases after all so I would think the retailers are hurting…

Best answer:

Answer by Gabriela
Hello,

You will be able to negotiate. You can negotiate pretty much everywhere these days, even in shopping malls buying a TV, so you will surely be able to negotiate at authorized dealer.

Remember to be firm in your negotiations but also fair and you can surely get a good deal.

Since its inception in 2001 WatchesOnNet has been thrilling consumers with incredible deals on watches.  Invicta watches are now available on WatchesOnNet at all time low prices.

Let’s face it, worldwide economic news is somewhat depressing, so when you hear of anyone that has a ‘Deal’ you approach with caution. This time rest assured, WatchesOnNet a Florida based online retailer is the ‘real deal.’

WatchesOnNet is featuring “Invicta Chronographs” in its popular Closeout section. They also list a diverse selection from top brand Swiss manufacturers like Hublot and Breitling to designer collections like Gucci or Michael Kors.

Ocean Reef Red Dial Chronograph

Watches from the “Invicta Reserve Collection” will also be made available. Look for one of their newer creations the ‘Ocean Reef Red Dial Chronograph’ which features a Flame Fusion Crystal, Water Resistant to 200m and a 5 year warranty. Other styles also available include oversized chronographs or ceramic watches.
WatchesOnNet makes it hard to resist frequenting their site since in addition to the Closeout Section they also offer a Sales Section and a Blowout Section. You can look forward to many more incentive based sales as 2012 takes the company to new heights within the E-Commerce community and Invicta rides along.

Invicta Venom Viper Chronograph

A visit to the Invicta company website is also recommended, since they offer the ‘Invicta Sunday Run.’ This special, can best be described as an overseas ‘Crate of Watches’ that happens to get lost on the way to the Invicta warehouse. It then becomes accessible to you for 24 hours and during this time you can get a great deal on a pre-selected watch. Subscribe to their newsletter online for complete details.

Crate of Invicta special cargo

Hey, buddy… Wanna buy a watch?

Subscribers to Invicta Watches’ “The Movement” e-newsletter are apprised of a very strange weekly phenomenon: every Sunday, a crate of Invicta’s timepieces falls out of a delivery van and its contents are made available at deeply discounted “street” prices! Although The Sunday Run is a weekly occurrence, it is not known in advance exactly which models will be jettisoned until the Sunday of the event, so subscribers must regularly check their newsletters for more information about the “accidents.”

On Sunday at midnight Eastern Standard Time, Invicta e-newsletter subscribers can purchase these “contraband” watches until 11:59pm or until the stock runs out. It is advisable for subscribers to check The Sunday Run site at midnight or as close to midnight as possible, as the timepieces have been known to sell out in as few as 10 minutes.

Typically, only one Invicta watch model is offered, but there have been occasions where multiple styles became available. Past styles offered during The Sunday Run have been:

  • The Reserve Excursion Flex Model 6266, a 53.5mm four jeweled professional Swiss made 1/10 second chronograph in a solid stainless steel case with 18 CT gold plating and water resistant to 200 meters. Usually sold for upwards of $ 400, it was offered on The Sunday Run for $ 79.

 

  • The Speedway Chronograph Model 3644, a 44mm professional quartz chronograph in a solid stainless steel case with 18 CT gold plating and water resistant to 200 meters. Retails at over $ 300, it was offered on The Sunday Run for $ 63.

 

  • The Pro Diver SCUBA Chronograph Model 0077, a professional chronograph 48mm in a surgical grade stainless steel case with 18 CT gold plating. Retails at approximately $ 600 and offered on The Sunday Run for $ 99.

Recently, the proceeds from The Sunday Run were donated to The Emmaus Medical Mission through The Invicta Care Foundation. With the help of the funds donated from organizations like The Invicta Care Foundation, The Mission provides desperately needed medical care and supplies to impoverished residents of Mindo, Ecuador. The operational expenses of Invicta Care are entirely paid for by The Invicta Watch Group, so that Invicta Care can use 100 percent of monies donated to aid philanthropic organizations in their efforts to create a better world.

The Sunday Run deals are only available to subscribers of “The Movement” e-newsletter. All watches come with a comprehensive 1-year warranty from the date of purchase, with repair and service information also provided. The Platinum Plan 4-year extended warranty is also available for purchase. The next Sunday Run is scheduled for January 1, 2012.

That’s pathetic that your advertising here.

If you guys had such good prices, then you must have good business, lots of people buying. But if you have to advertise here then that’s pretty cheap thing to do.
