“This purchase was a chance that paid off. I was familiar with the brand because I own one other Orient watch, but it's a smaller dress watch and I'd never handled one of their divers. There are so many great watches out there by Seiko, Citizen, Orient and other brands that I was overwhelmed with choices. Finally, I sat down and made a list of the things that I really wanted: a sapphire crystal, a hand winding and hacking movement, a signed crown, a watch that is ISO certified as a diver (this has 3 ISO certs!!!), a 120 click bezel (no play, perfect articulation), a full solid link bracelet and an in-house movement, all for under $400. That's a ton of features for even a $600 watch. I know that the price won't stay under $400 forever, but Long Island had the best price on it by far. This watch just pops on the wrist, especially the yellow accents, unique sword and arrow hands and the signed crown. The lume is excellent. The accuracy has been within 5 seconds a day. Thanks Marc!”
“I bought this as a replacement for a beaten up Mako II because I wanted sapphire Cristal. I am simply stunned by the quality of this watch and the price was a absolute bargain. Would recommend Island watch to my friends and in fact I did and they also recently purchased an Orient.
Than you”
“So far the watch meets or exceeds expectation. I have worn it a week and it has not lost or gained any time. So far the most accurate self-winding watch that I have. BUT. I need to have it a month or so to be sure. 7 days is not enough. I'm hoping that the accuracy will continue. Shipment arrived before the time promised. Very Happy about that. Thanks. Will update if given a chance in about a month.”
