Pros: Ultra-sharp style, excellent battery life, easy to read, comfy for its size.
Cons: Wish a 52mm size exact copy existed
The Bottom Line: Serious looking, very easy to read in the dark, sturdily built.

| reginaldperrin's Full Review: Invicta Force Lefty Collection #3332 Watch for Men |
I have owned the black-on-black 46mm Invicta 3332 Terra Lefty quartz chronograph watch (aka IN3332) for about 2 years now, and it is still going with its original battery. Other military style Invicta Terra Lefty's I own are the 52mm 4538 quartz, the 52mm 4539 quartz, and the 46mm 3392 automatic. Please see my individual reviews for each of them for unique details.
The all-black 46mm Invicta 3332 Lefty Chronograph is the sharpest looking of the large and impressive Invicta Lefty line. The 3332 lefty chronograph has yellow accents which gives it a more sporty appearance. But what makes it stand out the most is that the hour & minute hands, as well as the main 12-hour numbers, are all solid white over the black dial. This is unique because the other generations of Invicta Terra Lefty's have some sort of outline on both hands and numbers. Such outlines give off a less-than-serious appearance -- more decoration and less utility. However, the solid white hands and markings of the 3332 make for a real no-nonsense military look. All-in-all, this is my favorite Invicta Lefty of the four that I own. It is disappointing that the new 52mm Invicta 4538 that seems to be the 3332's replacement went more for a slightly softer dial presentation along with its increased size.
For people choosing between silver and black case versions, black dial watches with black cases appear bigger than the same sized black dial watch with a silver steel case. I wear my Invictas while performing physical labor and I have not created a noticeable scratch yet -- that is a nice plus. However, the glow-in-the-dark abilities of all of my Invicta military-style lefty's are only average.
