Most of these DD movements were purchased on the black market,hence the cheep price. Many of these movements failed because of the questionable origins. DD when contacted said they knew very little about Invicta and did not have any kind of relationship with the company. I would normally jump at the chance to have a DD/2892 combo at under $1000.00,but this company Is well known for there embellishing. I tell people If they need a beater they may want to try a Invicta,say for under $150.00. I can think of much nicer and well made watches when approaching the $1000.00 threshold. Imo Invictas are nothing more than a glorified rep. I do agree with you Chief,not a bad looking watch. But all things considered,no thanks.
