Invicta Men's Dragon Lupah Swiss Quartz Chronograph Lorica Strap Watch

Ah the Lupah. Some say this is what put Invicta into the game. I am not sure about that but i sure do like it. Lupah is Latin for magnify and it sure does manage to do that. For so long I resisted the Lupah and told myself it was ugly. That I did not want a Tonneu shaped case. That it was to small. But then the more I saw it on TV being presented and the more I looked at pictures the more I was drawn to it. When I saw World of Watches having a time bomb special on it for a cost of 79.99 I thought why not.

I ordered and had it in my hands within 5 days. I opened the box and as warmth came over me. What people say about the beauty and magnificence of the Lupah not coming thru in pictures and on TV are true. The crystal just brings your gaze into the face of the watch.

I will try to give a description of it for you but will fail to do it justice. The face of the Lupah has a spirograph-like Guilloche curved pattern, large numbers and a chronograph that resembles a smiling face, kind of like Willie Wonka if he would have designed a watch while smoking meth. It has Invicta's "special" Tritnite luminous hands, and the patented by Invicta padded Italian Lorica strap that's made from a special microfiber blend. The Lupah is also water-resistant to 100 meters. That is 330 feet to us Americans.

The watch wears very nice. I must say of all the watches I have I get the most looks from this one. Guys if you are a conversation piece this is the watch for you. I have had several complete strangers walk up to me and start talking about my watch.
