I bought the 4043 with the last posted "SharkBite" deal, and it ended up having a very small defect with the winding crown. But please don't get me wrong, I am very happy with this company - DiamondShark. My rep (not sure of his status in the company, but he seems to possibly be the owner) was very interested in making my transaction successful. My PayPal credit card had some kind of issue getting approval with this company (PayPal can't say where the problem comes in), but the rep made sure I could provide another form of payment, even though it caused a delay. This company has been concerned with my defect, giving me the option to just return it for a replacement - no problem. They've allowed me to take it to a local jeweler (my decision) to see if it can be repaired inexpensively before I decide if I want to return it for replacement. VERY conscientious sales staff. Although this rep has been very professional, he is very personable and informal, not fake, and he talks to you like a person, not like a lowly "customer." I'm actually contemplating buying this 4044, too. FYI... the trademark color for this watch is a really bright, ugly yellow, so the box and any Invicta-branded paraphernalia are all in this ugly yellow color, and my box has a tacky design to it. But the watch is very nice, a little bigger and heavier than what I am used to, but I attribute that to its quality.
Just my experience, but I suppose YMMV with this company.
