dleblancSorry mate, I'll have to respectfully disagree regarding your claim. The changes to the dial and logo were already in play before the sale to Invicta. Also have a closer look at the posts in the link you provided. The posts regarding the changes in that link is dated Feb '16. The sale to Invicta was only finalized and announced in the latter half of last year.
Now I'm not disputing that it *could* be Invicta era stock but more likely one of the later batch of the last pre-Invicta's.

sorry i dont agree with you too. as acquisition doesnt matter over night. discussion could have already taken place prior to feb last year. the change of logo is surely related to invicta acquisition

lohkhaipingYes, acquisition doesn't happen overnight and discussion of sale may or may not have been already underway way before Feb of last year but the acquiring company at that point would not have a say in any changes to the product direction till the final sale and transition of the company was complete.
Now this is all guess work and hearsay due to the fact we're all NOT on the exec board of Invicta or Glycine... I'm just looking forward to receiving a great watch at a preeetty decent price! :)

K-ManYeah I'm excited too! You're right that they had already changed the logo prior to the acquisition, but regardless, we're getting the new eagle logo, and one of the 3 models for sale here only came out after the invicta purchase, confirming these are invictas.
Again, it won't kill me, but I'm always informed

dleblancCurious... Which of the three??
EDIT: While I'm waiting for an answer, a quick google search shows that the Root Beer models came in both bracelet and leather using the older logo meaning it's pre '16. The Golden Eye came out in '12 so I'm a little confused as to which came out after the Invicta acquisition? (Like I mentioned... all of this "is it Invicta Glycine or not" rigmarole is all guess work and hearsay).
