I saw this dial and my first thought was "now that is tough to read". This is one of the more busy dials that I have seen lately...what do you guys think?

Busy dial... S110

I actually think that the movement is pretty cool, but the way that it was displayed on this dial is sort of nuts!

I agree-way too busy.
I'm also not a fan of the way the strap is incorporated into the case.
Once the strap goes the watch is useless.

BTW-must ALL Invicta related threads be posted in the MO section??
Very odd.

Settle down pal...I was in the MO section when I remembered that I saw it last night. I hit the new thread, added the content and hit send. Very little thinking involved...no hidden intent.

5 Silver hands on a single dial does not a good combination make.

I did own that model. The dial looks busy but is easier to read than many busy dial chronos around.

Aside from the dial I don't like the case design either.

Dial looks too small for the case. If the dial was bigger, it wouldn't be so crowded. How do the subdials work? Does the large seconds hand only sweep through the bottom half of the dial?

Yes on the large seconds hand movement.

It's an ETA retrograde chrono movement introduced a couple of years ago but never really caught on.

Tissot was the first to use it,and as is evident by the photo,it doesn't have to be so confusing.
Invictas "attention to detail" shines through yet again!!

Like fog said what use the watch if you need to replace the strap. Can you? The dial is busy but the strap issue is makes me wonder.
