Reserve Speedway Dubois

My TTV Invicta Reserve Speedway Elite Swiss Dubois is back from repair. Only 6 weeks.
I just love this watch and would have waited a life time for it. Invicta did what they said, the
repair seams great.
I wear 15 SAIII's as work watchs ( most SW200 and 7750's and 4 high end quartz), so you
will understand how I feel about Invicta.. This watch , I sent in for repairs on day "one". Boy
am I glad that I kept this watch.

Received my DD Speedway too!

Congrats on getting your DD Speedway back Forehire!!

I also sent mine in on day one (case opened 6/1) and received it yesterday (7/14) from
Invicta. Mine was returned Fed Ex one day, and included a letter of apology from Invicta
Customer Service.
The watch is operating perfectly, its running "spot-on" against a satellite controlled clock I
have and the hand calibration and chronograph are also "spot-on"...the six weeks went by in
the blink of an eye.
I also feel that I made the right decision.

To further put everyone who ordered this timepiece at ease...In the June 2010 Edition of
Watch Time, p. 93-94 they did a lab review on the Raymond Weil Don Giovanni Cosi Grande
Jumping Hour. It is relevant to you because the movement that is used by them is the
Dubois Depraz module on top of the ETA 2892 having a power reserve of 42 hours. The price
of this watch is $3,750.00.
The takeaway for all of you DD Speedway owners, is that you got a hell of a deal and a very
good timpepiece to boot. I hope this information will kill a lot of the angst and put a lot of
you at ease knowing that the movements are legit and that you are not alone in getting this
combination.
Well done Eyal and INVICTA

I'm VERY glad to see folks are happy with their Speedway DD's.
This is a VERY nice watch, with a MUCH sought after movement.
I knew the problem could be fixed (quite easily, in fact), and am VERY glad you all are
enjoying your purchases.

Patience is a virtue, and it's good that we have some, from time to time.
Nothing is always perfect, and so we have to accept what comes.
But, from where I stand, you are not alone.
I am so very pleased that you are happy with your watch!
