Horological Meandering

All things horology rather its a $10 Timex or a $1,000,000 Richard Mille.  The whole point of watch collecting isn't about who has the most Subs or who got what first it should be more about the passion of enjoying what you have and believe me I'm not ashamed to say this but I happen to be a big fan of Invicta there I said it. for yrs, I've always felt embarrassed just like I've always felt like I had to always hide the fact I'm a register republican but thats a whole other topic lol.  Anyways what I'm trying to say is don't feel ashamed/embarrassed for what you like if you get the same amount of joy out of a $10 Timex the same way someone gets out of a million-dollar RM, by all means, go for it. OK, enough of my 2 cents on too my 1 yr review. I bought this Invicta Akula Prestige Sports Watch around late July or early August of 2019 once I saw it I had to have it and I was going through that Blue dial SS spots watch craze you know the one. Since I couldn't drop $60K on a PP Nautilus I, decided to give this model a try and I must say I have 0 regrets for the price I have to give Invicta major props there's something you don't hear every day. Sure it's big but its also rather comfortable now I'm gonna give you my pros. cons and score of what I think of this poor man's PP Nautilus.
