I've had my 8926C for at least 5 years now. I never take it off; I shower with it everyday; I do hard, physical, dirty, outside geology work with it; I beat the &#%$ out of this watch. It's all scratched up (if you look closely), but still looks great; it works perfectly and I LOVE IT! I get compliments on it all the time. After the first few months of resetting it now and then it's kept time to within about 1 minute every couple of months (about 1 second per day). I like watching the Japanese Miyota movement better than the Swiss Silleta movement because you can actually see the balance wheel spinning back and forth and the anchor lever and ruby (jewel) pallets ticking away on the escape wheel. You can only see the balance wheel on the 9937's Swiss movement. Several of the ruby (jewel) bearings area visible on both movements. Speaking of visible, the Tritnite glowing material glows brightly all night. The date window on the front crystal magnifies slightly, less than the 9937's, but the date is no more or less readable than on the 9937. My front crystal is slightly scratched, but it looks pretty good for all the abuse it's seen. The back crystal is perfect. If I could change one thing, I'd put solid end links on the bracelet and screw them to the case like the 9937. I break the spring bars (pins) about twice a year, but only because I'm very rough on the watch. I actually like the 8926's stamped clasp better than the 9937's "solid" clasp because the solid one actually has a very narrow connection to its stamped end piece which is no thicker than the wider stamped clasp on this watch. The 8926's clasp isn't as pretty as the 9937's, but I trust the 8926's more; and who sees the clasp anyway? All said, this watch is a very good-looking, bullet-proof, reliable workhorse. I just got a 9937, and although I love it because I'm turning into a Swiss movement geek, I appreciate the 8926C more than ever. It's a hell of a watch for a steal of a price! Buy one! You'll love it!Buy Invicta Men's Pro Diver Collection Coin-Edge Automatic Watch #8926C!
