The International is really nice in the two-tone blue option. I still think it a good deal at $129, Not much of a "special price." You know what will happen: they'll be clearanced at a higher price.
It always alnnoys me, because some of the men's auto prices can be had for as little as $79.
Raising the issue of the "Malaysia movement" in a $100 watch, is a nonissue. (this is for those lurkers out there. Invicta is really great at doing the Pro Diver./Grand Diver.
The women's Gen II pieces, aren't such a good deal at evine, however.

Well what can I say. I looked into my collection and right away I found a close substitute for what I was contemplating buying. I guess I'll be happy with what I have. Note to self: must get the automatics out and wind them....

Ah yes, the Abyss! Isn't that the Abyss MOP auto that we had a buying frenzy over a couple of years ago? Shop had accidentally marked them down to near $60 and we snapped them up!

aprimo: Yes, I still really like the Abyss too. I wear mine relatively often.
Jena: I used to wind my automatics every month. Then it went to every 3 months. Now I'm lucky to get to them every 6 months.

@You have a great memory, Aprimo. Yes I paid $69.34 + shpg and I find they still sell it only in my TT for $92.01 @ 38mm. (628-670) Really a beautiful watch but doesn't look like it on their photo. And it comes in a one slot box.. Yippee!
Yes we got ourselves a great deal here. We have the neatest watches sitting in our collection and they don't see the light of day. Then I keep looking for more. Crazy.
Gee LJ, I don't feel so bad now, I thought you were religiously winding your automatics monthly.

I really had to talk myself down from that Puppy Bolt Zeus when it went on Once Only. I managed it only because I kept telling myself that in those colors I just wouldn't wear it often enough to justify it. But I gotta tell you, if the price had been $199 instead of $299, it might have been a different story. And yet, I have watches in my collection that haven't been worn yet. I need to keep reminding myself of that.

The Abyss was a ncei one and they didn't bring it back. If you have that, you don't need the GD auto. Jena, I am glad you have the watch to enjoy. You've done your share of heavy lifting when it come to watch buying. So you should have quite a few gems there to enjoy!
I sold my Abyss to a Geek. I had never gotten around to sizing it. Would I like to kick myself? Probably. At the time I also needed to raise quick cash. I think at the time I noticed that a few shiny/white dial watches and it seemed redundant.
I didn't watch this event. Much too busy and I didn't want to be tempted.
For those who never picked up on a 34mm auto, I would love to see Invicta bring that back. Now 34mm is a very nice size, not too big. Not too small. I had started wearing my three 34mm PDs just to switch it up a little. and I had forgotten what a nice size that really is.

Java, the only watch I've added lately is a Citizen Eco-Drive two-tone 34mm that I got from Costco on sale & used Costco cash cards that I got as holiday & birthday gifts & my Costco rebate checks to pay for it, so it didn't really cost me anyhting out of my own pocket. It's a nice watch, with a sapphire crystal & it will never need a battery, which is a plus for me. I still have a bunch of dead soldiers that I need to take for batteries. The 34mm case on the Citizen is a nice size, too.

LJ, Aprimo..or anyone else. Did you buy this TT Abyss? I love this watch. It's keeping great time and for the money I think it's a real sleeper deal. JMHO.
