“Very pleased with my 1521 sunburst Squale -- original one I ordered was defective and Marc was very professional when I contacted him and replaced it with the current watch, runs and looks great placed on a rubber strap (also from Island Watch). Will definitely be buying from them again.”
“I'm extremely happy with my new 1521. Great design, great fit, incredible build quality for the price (rivaling more expensive Swiss dive watches). Mine is also running within COSC spec, despite not being the explicit COSC model 1521. In the past week I've worn it while hiking, road cycling, working on my motorcycle... all very happily. Thanks, Island Watch!”
“The Squale 1521 has quickly become my go-to watch this summer. Comfort and fit are fantastic, even on my relatively small wrist. I've yet to see a photo that comes close to capturing how it plays with the light - the polished case and chapter ring, aluminum bezel insert, and especially the sunburst dial make this a stunner in sunlight. However, if it's subtlety you're after, the blasted case or ombre dial versions of the 1521 might be more your style.
If I had a complaint, it's that I ordered too soon. The leather strap isn't for me, and Squale announced the new 1521 bracelet within a week of the watch arriving. I usually wear this on a black sailcloth strap (pictured) or a an orange tropic strap, which nicely complements the minute hand but really throws understatement out the window.”
“The 1521 has a beautiful dial! I love this watch and as always, doing business with Marc is fantastic. Delivery is very fast and the product is always perfect. I highly recommend longislandwatch.com.”
