I've had 5 or 6 Invicta Venoms. Amazing look. But I sold all of them. They pinch the wrist bone. I hear the newer version, the Venom II, has corrected that problem, but I'm not sure if the Venom II looks as compelling.

I never thought I'd get a Venom until I saw the IIs, especially this one:

That's a thing of beauty. I also really like the blue dial 1519.
I too have a relatively puny 7.5" wrist and am mildly embarrassed at the size of some of my watches, like the Leviathan or 6903, although I'm about a decade behind you so I guess have some leeway in terms of what's age appropriate. I just ordered a 0524, which is a mid-sized Specialty Reserve (44mm case, which is pretty big for most brands). I've seen some dealers call it a women's watch but Invicta considers it unisex. Hey, there are numerous ways to save your manhood!
p.s. Hope I'm not clogging your comments fields too much - I dig your blog.

I wish Invictas had more sapphire crystal models. I'm getting away from their flame fusion.
