Is the Invicta Speedway worth it?

If you want a big steel chronograph with 200 m water resistance and don't mind quartz, it is good value. If you want a slim everyday watch or a mechanical movement, look elsewhere.

Yes. It is rated to 200 m, which covers swimming and snorkeling. Have the crown and pushers checked after any hard knocks, and avoid pressing the chronograph buttons underwater.

Invicta Speedway models are typically in the 45–50 mm range and weigh around 0.8 lb. That is large; try one on if your wrist is under about 7 inches.

Does it need a battery?

Yes. It runs on a quartz battery, so expect a battery change every couple of years. Any jeweler can do it.

Typically the watch, a presentation box and paperwork. Check the listing for the exact contents before buying.

Invicta watches are discounted heavily and often, especially around major sales events. Compare the current price with its price history before buying.
