“I have been using this for about 6 months now and its just amazing. Don't think there is any diver watch which offers more value than the orient ray 2. I got this for 159$ and it punches better than any of my other watches in the $500 range.
In my opinion its even better than the skx given the price, specs, features and design. The lume is out of this world and by far the most gorgeous one I have seen even in the $2000 range.
Though it is a divers watch, I can so easily carry it off as a formal watch for my office and its slim enough to slide under my short's collar.
I am very happy with also the service from longisland watches on my queries before buying the watch.”
“This is a great looking watch for the price. Mark was helpful on the phone giving me some advice about band options. My decision was between an Seiko SKX and the RayII. I gambled on the RayII because I did not like the bracelet on the SKX and I knew that it would entail another $55 to remedy that. The RayII bracelet is solid metal and feels nice. Gamble paid off. Since I'm not going scuba diving I think I got a better watch, for significantly less money.
I will say that the Orient packaging is not as nice as Seiko, so if you're giving it as a gift, you could be a little let down by the presentation. But if the person knows what they're getting, that should not be an issue.”
“Island Watch's customer service is outstanding. Had a problem with my 1st order so emailed Marc. He responded promptly and was able to rectify the problem. Will be ordering from them again. Best online watch service on the net.”
“Bought this one as a present for my dad, who was blown away by the heft and quality. Sure, the bracelet ain't the greatest - hollow end links and flimsy clasp - but it looks fantastic on a Bond NATO.
Service from Long Island Watch was on point. Marc does a fine job communicating with his customers. This is my first purchase from Long Island Watch but definitely won't be my last.”
“Another great watch from a great watch shop! Needed a black dial Ray II to add to my Ray collection. Put a NATO strap on it, as I am not fond of bracelets. Wouldn't purchase from anyone other than Island Watch, great selection, great service.”
