“Love the blue dial version of this watch. It is a wonderful everyday watch, that still provides wonderful details with its date and 24hr subdials. Very pleased to have added this one to my collection.”
“This Orient watch is the best deal on the market, fine in every way, fit, finish, and a nice movement with sub dials, an amazing deal for under $150, destined to become a collectors level watch as time keeps ticking, buy one now from Marc at Island Watch or miss the time boat.”
“The Defender really doesn’t feel or look like a watch selling for less than $200. Orient puts department store watches selling at a similar price point to shame. The real test will be how this watch holds up over the next few years, but as it stands this watch is my new go to recommendation to anyone looking for a daily wearer under $200. And that’s not mentioning the level of service you get with Mark. The reviews of Island Watch seem too good to be true, but buying here really has been a great experience. I won’t buy a watch anywhere else if Mark carries it.”
“The quality of the watch is great. The face is crisp and easy to read, everything is centered well. The case and bracelet are good too. Happy daily wearer. Feels like a more expensive watch. It's a mystery why I don't see more of these around.”
“I had been researching the Defender for a while and recently purchased the blue dial (ET0N001D) Defender from Island Watch. The Defender lives up to the accolades it receives. For the money, this is a quality timepiece and an excellent value. The blue dial with white indices looks sharp and is paired with a quality bracelet.
Island Watch service was great too. Questions were answered promptly and the Defender arrived within three days of shipment. Thanks Island Watch/Marc.”
