Here are pics of a Subaqua Noma II (3-hand) that I received in trade.

It's a 47mm with an ETA 2824-2, sapphire crystals, 500M WR and is just gorgeous!

I feel grateful to snag this watch as they are harder to find. I do wish that Invicta used the gas tubes as they did with the prototypes. Still . . . the lume is just fantastic!

[ Link To Jim S. review of the SAII Prototype. This is a great review on what they "thought" was to be the final execution of the SAII.]


I am now on the look for the 7750 version, preferably with a Meteorite dial.

In any event . . . I've been wearing it all day, and just love it!

ENJOY!

great watch...........but im pretty sure this model was never made with a meteorite dial..........only the 3 hand and the chrono and the both had the golf ball dimple dial.....i could be wrong, but i followed this model pretty closley and dont ever remember seeing a meteorite version of the sa11..........

Beautiful watch. Enjoy it.

I saw the tubes prototype thread you shared. Too bad the tubes never made it to production. That would have put this way ahead of everything else out there. Still a great piece.

I agree . . . the tubes would have made this watch, damn near the "perfect" Invicta timepiece for me! In any event . . . Invicta made the lume incredibly bright on this model!

Regards, Brian.
