Invicta Pro Diver Black Ion Plated Watch

Invicta Pro Diver Black Metal Band Watch – $59.99

There are two kinds of watch-wearing guys.  The shiny stainless steel wristband guys, and the subdued leather wrist band guys.  Most men turn to the shiny stainless steel wristbands when they’re looking to buy a new watch.  It’s almost like it’s a default setting that’s buried deep within the male subconscious.

If you’re looking for a durable metal-band watch, but also don’t want to risk blinding anyone in a 20 foot radius of you on a sunny day, then this might be a good pick.

The bezel allegedly bounces a bit more light than you’d think, so beware of that.  But… the flashiness of this watch is kept to a perfectly subdued minimum.  It’s a second-glancer.  At first glance someone won’t know what it is, but will be intrigued enough for a second glance.  And after the second glance, it’s doubtful they’ll
think it cost you less than $60.

There’s something to be said for purposely not standing out in the crowd, but yet at the same time, somehow still standing out in the crowd.  I realize that sounds like something Yogi Berra would have said, but… hopefully that made some kind of sense.  This watch does just that.
