To each his own, but the people that bought 'em will have a much better resale upside than the average Invicta.

You can quote me on that.

Same movement, btw as the Omega...

(I thought you meant the SANiii)

I know NOTHING about the Renato.

It's an ETA E20.321.

TAG uses it in the CAF1010.BA0821 TAG HEUER Aquaracer Chronotimer Mens Watch

Accutron has it in the Telluride 26C07 Multi-function

Here's what I found on the Omega X-33 and the earlier Seamaster multifunction. It appears to have used a modified version of the ETA E20.321 (the X-33 doesn't):

The X-33 features the in-house developed and unique to Omega 9-jewel quartz crystal controlled calibre 1666 movement, manufactured by Swatch Group cousin ETA (ETA designation E20.321). The movement was designed especially for the X-33 and has never been used in any other model despite continuing contentions to the contrary. Though various brands like Breitling, Bell & Ross and others have used ETA-made multifunction movements similar to those in the earlier Seamaster Multifunction, the 4-pusher cal.1666 and its unique digital display layout and half-step minute hand remain exclusive to the Omega X-33. The cal. 1666 is a non-thermocompensated movement. In a temperature compensated movement, the frequency of oscillation (pulses per second in this case) stays practically the same at whatever temperature the quartz crystal is subjected to [within limits]. A typical watch crystal tends to operate at 32,768Hz with a frequency period of 30.52uS, however regular watch crystals will dedward wrote: [/b]
none of these use the omega movement.Where did that come from?the omega is a 1660 caliber, highly jeweled and finished movement. none of those has the dial layout to support that movement.Also, that movement costs more than any invicta or renato

I got the vulcan ani-digi and it just arrived yesterday. I also have the Subaqua Noma III ani-digi. It's the only vulcan and the only SANIII that I have and I love them both.

I really love the vulcan, and it may be because it's my first vulcan. Anyway, I'm glad I got them. The SANIII is a little heavy, and I hope to get one of their rubber straps for it. :c

I hope to learn how to post pictures on here and I'll show them to you.
Congrats on BOTH, Suz! Enjoy 'em.

I still think the ETA E20.321 makes the SANIII, with only 250 made, one of the "safer-bets" (value-wise) in the current Invicta line up, but I bought a Reserve Lupah, so what do I know, LOL.
