Everyday is 8926 Day! I've had mine for more than ten years and it still runs/looks like new. Did I mention the hacking / winding automatic Seiko movement? Lately I went looking for the next size up (8926s are 40mm at the bezel, but only 30mm wide at the crystal, with a 20mm lug width, making them "read" smaller than they look). What did I find? Invicta's new-ish 3044 Grand Diver. Looks okay from afar until you discover it's about the size of a medium pizza (actually 47mm) and is even more resplendent in the embellishments Invicta haters love to hate (the three little hardhat diver emblems will make them especially crazy). Sans the emblems and after letting some of the air out of the tire (down to say a reasonable 42-44mm case size) it wouldn't be a bad upgrade. Unfortunately for 8926 lovers, Invicta still seems hell bent on pushing the limits of TOO DAMN BIG!

RayFHaha, yeah I hear you: if you like smaller and less conspicuous Invicta usually takes a hard turn in a direction you don't like.
