“First off, Longislandwatch.com provided great service. The Mako II with blue dial looked great on my wrist the first day lounging around the house, the second day I noticed a light scratch on the face of the watch. It was either there and I didn't notice it when I received it or the "strenuous" act of washing dishes the night before put a scratch on the Mineral Crystal. My other complaint with it is that the bezel is horribly hard to turn, not much use as a dive watch other than water proofing. I'm wishing I had gone with the Seiko SKX007. It didn't help when all the Orient Mako II's went on sale for $159 after I paid $180 the week before. It does keep really good time and self winds much better than my Seiko Orange Monster.
After two weeks of wrist time I've noticed one of the false lugs is loose near the bezel and rattles when I move my arm.”
“The Orient Mako II Blue Dial Automatic Dive Watch is a very welcome addition to my collection. I particularly like the dial, with the subtle sunburst design, legible markers, hands and indices and red-tipped second hand. It is precisely the right size for my 6 inch wrist - not too large as is the case with many contemporary watches. As always, the service from Long Island Watches was superb. My shipment was received on time and the product exceeds my expectations. This was my fifth purchase from Island Watch and I will return.”
“Superb communication to me in the UK. Questions answered super quick. Very happy with my Mako II. The YouTube videos guided me through sizing the bracelet perfectly. Thanks Mark, I will call again.

“Fast shipping to me in western Canada. The watch looks really sharp and I am very happy with it. At this price point I am very impressed with the quality of the dial and the bracelet.”
“The first watch I ordered was a H.S. graduation present for my son. I wanted him to have an attractive, functional (yet not too expensive) watch to wear as he stepped out into the world. Though the price of the watch was very reasonable, we were exceedingly pleased with the quality, look, and design of the Orient Mako II. After seeing my son wear his for a while, I decided that I needed to have one as well. So for Christmas I bought one for myself. As with the first, I couldn't be happier! On both orders, shipping was lightning fast and the watch came packed carefully and securely. As I look to add other quality timepieces to my wardrobe in the near future, Island Watch, with their great prices and selection, will be my go-to source.”
“I purchased this watch for my son. It arrived when promised and was boxed well. He was very pleased with the watch. I think it is very well made both the band and the case. I'm very pleased with my first purchase from Island Watch and will consider them in the future.”
“The watch is nice but the best part about this purchase was how easy it was to buy from Long Island watch. The whole process was simple, quick and utterly painless. I was given a tracking number as soon as it shipped, it arrived very quickly. I live in the Middle East and it only took 4 days to get here from ordering and there were no customs charges or waiting at customs. The packaging was excellent and the Orient box arrived with no damage whatsoever which is not always the case with other companies. I am currently looking at another Orient watch and will purchase only from Long Island Watch.”
