“Great watch, amazing value and has everything I needed. I switched out the bracelet for a silicone strap and it’s great. I love the dial and the sapphire is so clear. I’m based in the UK so had to pay 20% VAT which I didn’t realise (first order from the US) but now know for future purchases. Marc helped me with quick responses via email for queries. His tip to take the crown sticker off was life changing (tooth pick). Thanks”
“I could not be more pleased with my purchase of the Islander Dive Watch. It represents amazing quality and value for the price point.
Service from Marc at LIW cannot be faulted. Fast and efficient. Marc is very responsive. I have subsequently purchased some additional accessories from LIW and the items were delivered to my home in the northern suburbs of Sydney, Australia in record time.”
“My wife bought me this watch in October, as a Christmas present - so I’m not allowed to size the bracelet or wear it yet. I go and “visit” it about every second day.
Looking forward very much to wearing it.”
“I love the concept of the watch and am pleased with the execution. They got it right, this is the 007 you wish Seiko would have made. I particularly like the almost minimalist dial. Very uncluttered. I do wish the lume under the bezel was a bit brighter but that's really nit picking; I mean you couldn't source all the parts to put into an SKX case for what the watch costs.”
“Thrilled with this watch and can't stop looking at it. Great 3-dimensional depth, accurate timekeeping - 7 seconds fast per day.
Love all the upgrades: sapphire, AR, ceramic bezel, screw links. Swapped to black rubber strap and Nato, but keep returning to the bracelet it came with.
Nitpicks: Crown is slightly awkward to access between crown guards and screwing down is fiddly, bezel has slight backplay, LIW box it came in was unremarkable. Wears smallish for a 43mm but most will find that a plus.
Overall, definitely recommended, and feels good to buy from Marc who through his videos has taught me so much.”
