The History of Invicta Watches

Invicta, which is Latin for invincible, was established in the year 1837. Raphael Picard founded the company in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland founded the brand. One of the brands main ideas were to sell fine Swiss watches at reasonable prices. Their headquarters are currently in Hollywood, Florida.

Some of their history includes their Swiss made watch, which was exclusively made for the Naval Fleet officers. Invicta was commissioned by the USSR council of labor and defense to make these watches in 1959

The brands watches used manual winding pieces. However the brand was almost forgotten because of the quartz revolution in the 1970s when winding watches were no longer popular.

Electronic watches such as Casio and Timex brands were also pushing Invicta's manual watches out of the market.

In the 90s, Invicta beganto make automatic watches. In 1991, the brand was bought by an investment company based in the US. Up until then, the company was owned by the Picard family. In 2004 Invicta was renamed to Invicta Watch Group.

Eyal Lalo is currently the President and CEO of Invicta. He is also a third generation watchmaker. His family have been involved in Invicta for years prior. The Subaqua Noma V Reserve was produced by Lalo and even won the Reddot Design Award.

Invicta not only sells watches but they sell a range of products from clothing, pens, jewelry and more. Some of their watch lines even include watches inspired by Disney, Star Wars, The Muppets and Marvel.

Some popular Invicta watches include the Bolt and Venom collections.
