“Pictures of this watch do not do it justice. The watch just looks "right" in a timeless manner. The fit and finish are well above the price. I bought the standard 38mm sized sapphire model and fits my large 8 inch wrist nicely.
It shipped and arrived quickly during Christmas holiday. Marc quickly replied my question Christmas eve.”
“Love it. Very accurate and pleasurable to look at, clean.
Perhaps if I had any input, I'd want a slightly fatter hour hand, larger crown and a choice of original band or other. Great watch, anyway.”
“After reading numerous reviews, I chose the 1963 Seagull. It did not disappoint. Beautifully crafted vintage look that has been super reliable. I chose Longisland because of their stellar reputation. The watch came well within a reasonable time frame and was well-packaged. Updates came to me regarding transit and the service was highly professional.”
“This watch is a deal that can't be beat. A stainless steel case, signed crown, double chronograph for the price of a much lesser watch. Too bad it does not have a screw-down crown and hacking.
Only complaint is that the web site offered 5% off if you signed up for thier emails. Which I did, but got no discount. They did, however, provide quick delivery.”
“After some lengthy pondering, I decided on the sapphire crystal over the acrylic on the basis of past experience. My only acrylic crystal watch is a Vostok Amphibia; despite being very careful, it still ended up with scratches after only a few days of wearing. Though not as close to the original version as the acrylic, the Seagull 1963 Sapphire is still stunning. At 38mm, it's a bit small for my wrist but it does look very good and captivating. I waited 16 days for it to arrive in Canberra (Australia) from Long Island, New York. At a very reasonable US$5 for freight, the wait was well worth it. Thank you very much, Marc.”
