The Invisibility Watch (also known as the Invis Watch) is a PDA weapon for the Spy. It is a piece of advanced technology embodied in a digital watch.
Using the alternate fire button with any other weapon equipped, the player can Cloak, blending in perfectly with his surroundings and effectively becoming invisible, allowing them to infiltrate enemy territory and stalk targets without being seen. The Spy cannot attack whilst cloaked, but will still be able to use his Disguise Kit. Decloaking requires the Spy to wait approximately 2 seconds, If the Saharan Spy item set bonus is active, there will be a reduced decloak sound.
The Cloak generated by the Watch has a limited duration, indicated by a bar on the HUD as well as a glowing meter on the watch face itself. The Cloak meter will automatically recharge when not in use. Resupply areas, Dispensers, and ammo can also replenish the Cloak meter, even when cloaked. A large ammo box will fully recharge the Cloak, medium boxes will restore 50% and small boxes 25%.

- The watch and the way the Spy looks at it are also a likely reference to the Nintendo 64 first-person shooter GoldenEye 007.
