In the quest to streamline my collection, I'm selling my triple black combat Invicta Ocean Speedway. I hope someone enjoys it. It simply wasn't getting enough wrist time. Bezel is 47mm.

I bought this on the Sunday Run a couple months ago. I really like it, although the lack of lume is a bit of a bummer. I'm hoping to pick up a 10588, which is the silver band with blue face and black bezel. The Ocean Speedways are the perfect size for my 7.5" wrist - they are big without being ridiculous; I wish Invicta would make more in the 45-49mm range, especially the Specialty Reserves and Leviathans (Junior Leviathans?).

I find myself drawn more to my silver dial version with the gunmetal bezel and silver bracelet. The black one isn't getting enough wrist time so on the sales block it goes.

Yeah, I like the silver one too, maybe more, but it isn't quite in my "Inner Circle Wishlist" as I describe on my blog, although the 10588 is.
Do you own any midsize Specialty Reserves? I'm really digging those, big or midsize. I just got 0507 which is a lovely piece; I think I like it even more than the 6903.
By the way, how heavy are the metal bracelet Specialty Reserves? Are they comparable to the Leviathans?
