In 1837, Raphael Picard was the founder of the "Invicta Watch Group". The company was originally founded in La Chaux-de-fonds, Switzerland. "Invicta" is the Latin expression for "Invincible". In the early decades of its existence, Invicta rapidly becomes famous for its elegantly designed and functionally manufactured watches.
The company was owned by Picards family for a very long time until 1991. Then Invicta was acquired by an investment company settled in the United States and their headquarter moved to Hollywood, Florida. The chief executive officer of Invicta is named Eyal Lalo. He often appears in television shows on the channel NBC.
