“Just received last week. Took 10 minutes to fit bracelet. Wound it a few times and have been wearing since. 2-3 seconds a day seems the norm and the watch is very nice to look at. Totally as advertised. Great SKX upgrade and good value.”
“I am very pleased with my diver watch purchase. The quality is exceptional and keeps good time. The fit is good although I had to remove 4 links which was made easy with the screw pins.”
“This was the second islander I have bought and just like the first (38mm) I was blown away with the value in the 42mm. When it comes to bang for the buck this is the best there is. I had a minor issue with the second purchase still I emailed Mark and everything was taken care of with no problem at all. I would recommend island watch to everyone and anyone who wants to purchase a great watch and support small businesses. Thanks again for the great experience!”
“Overall the watch is ok. However the pins to adjust the bracelet are of inferior quality. They sheared off at the end of the threads when the pin was removed”
“I decided to purchase one after seeing several reviews. The SKX has several followers, in this case you get all that, also a sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel and Seiko movement. It really is quite remarkable.
I need to spend some time with the watch to be able to comment fully, first impressions support all the claims. The fit and finish are spot on. A gorgeous watch. It is also nice to have something somewhat custom as opposed to the standard offerings.
A safe purchase in the sense they stand behind their products. Emails get a fast response, often from the owner Marc himself. It is just a safe place to buy from in case you ever have a problem. This is supported by all the online feedback.
I appreciate all of the videos online. Marc has made a bunch of videos to help buyers and collectors. These do not really benefit him but are a big help to those looking to buy their first watch, or add to the ones they have.”
