We've slipped to page 2. Guess all the watch collectors are taking a break. more watch shows this week to lure those CC out of hiding.

Got my gt pinkie Pro Diver sized & then, tried to register the Shop 5 year warranty on it & had trouble again with Invicta's website. It said I was logged in & was redirecting me & then, nothing, it just sat there. Tried on 3 different browsers for several days with the same result, so tried to call their CS phone number & got nothing but an all circuits busy signal. I gave up & am mailing it off to them via snail mail, but will remember this hassle the next time I'm tempted to buy an Invicta again! Grrrr......

Aub, lately I have been registering through the Shop site, scroll down to the end of the watch description of your watch and it says either first timers or others just click here and it takes you to the Invicta site. I've had no problem that way. I have problems with the Invicta site. Maybe you have already done that. I just usually forget to register before the 30 days. To register that now make it easy enough if it works. ....we are having a tornado watch here, and the storms that go along with it. I don't like summer for this reason. (

aubnwa01, I feel your pain! I just returned the Invicta Angel mosaic 626-037. It was DOA - most likely a dead battery. Too bad, as it was a pretty watch. I haven't had lots of luck with Invictas. Also, I returned the new Renato beauty petite 626-851 two-tone interchangeable. It is not designed like the old interchangeable, but has the new push in pins that are impossible to push in. I do think either LJ or jena warned about this, and I should have followed their sage advice. I could not switch the bands. I did request that CS refund the S & H charges and the Smartlabel fee, so that lessens the pain a bit. I think I'll just enjoy reading about everyone's purchases for a while and enjoy my current collection of way-too-many watches Although I was tempted by the Versace, java, but you were correct that it was a bit too plain for the money, equss.

I hope everyone is well and enjoying the soon-to-begin summer!

Jena, first off, stay safe!

Thanks, I'll have to check on registering thru Shop's site when/if I buy another Invicta from them. I had trouble a few months back getting on their site & then, I finally magically was able to log in & register a warranty & thought the problems with their site was fixed, but I guess not. The warranty stuff already went out with the mail, or I'd go to Shop's site & try. It shouldn't be this hard to get on their website or simply call them, but I guess this isn't a priority for them, to get it fixed.

My Android Horizon is due to arrive tomorrow, I think. I've never had trouble registering an Android warranty, but Wing seems more customer focused than EL.

Aub, I'd just register it on Shops site and be done with it. How will you ever know that they'd ever got it? You going to keep on checking? JMHO. )

That's true, Jena & since their site & CS is so hinky to begin with, it's a good idea to just go ahead & make sure it's registered.

ETA: Well, Jena, that just takes me to the same place with the same result when I try to log in & when I try it as a "first-timer" it says I already have an existing account. :: sigh ::

It is a really pretty bronzo italia with a curved rectangular face, Roman numerals and a second hand dial. item number J 280444 LTS price $66, clearance price now $79. I bought the set of 3 straps J 313890. Really pretty watch and straps...there is a link for the MANY sets of 3 straps, must be more than a dozen. When I got it there was a cream strap option which I got, but it doesn't matter, since there are so many extra straps.

Hi Nikalette!

I am sure you got a great deal if your watch was an LTS. If you can swap out the straps, so much the better! Not sure which watch you mean, since I don't always check LTS. Sounds like a winner. Enjoy your new watch!

[Lavenderjunkie]

Nikalette: glad your new Bronzo watch is a winner. I hope you enjoy wearing it. I loved the design when you first posted about it. Please let us know how the watch hold up. We are always on the look out for 'new' watches to buy.

TGTBT: sorry you had a problem with your 2 newest watches. Did you like the Invicta well enough to re-order? There is a 3 hour show tonight... Women of the Hour, and the 38mm mosaic mop is in the show. They haven't dropped the price yet... but I'm guessing they will drop it back to around $70, where it was before. I originally bought the SS and I love it. I caved and also go the GT, which is also very lovely.

Disappointing about the Renato. Thanks for alerting us so that we will all know for the future.

aubnwa: I have problems registering, off and on. No rhyme or reason. I just mail it in when there is a problem. And I don't follow up to see if they got it. Waste of time.

I've never registered an Android. Is that something we are supposed to do?

I need help trying to identify the model and putting a value on an old’ish Bulova skeleton watch. I bought this watch while I was in the military – I think I bought it in the US but I’m not sure.

It is a standard 17 jewel wind up movement – Roman numerals on a silver background ring around an open face. The rear cover is also clear with the following markings:

Front – 12 o’clock position: BULOVA

Front - 6 o’clock position: Japan 92P43

Back – 12 o’clock position: BULOVA

Back – 1 o’clock position: T2 (I know this means it was made in 1992)

Back – 3 o’clock position: C877340

Back – 6 o’clock position: Base Metal Bezel

Back - 9 o’clock position: JAPAN

Back of main gear:
