The Miyota 8215
The Miyota 8215 is the Japanese made automatic movement used in many of Invicta's most popular models, including the 8926. The Miyota 8215 has a well-deserved reputation for accuracy and reliability. Unlike the Seiko 7S26 automatic, it can be manually wound - which is very convenient when you are not wearing it all the time.
There are a number of reviews of the Invicta 8926 and the 8215 movement on other forums on the internet. If you do a Google search for Invicta + 8926
+ Review you whould be able to find some reviews of this remarkable
watch (I also have done an 8926 review which can be found on this site).
