“This is a great watch!!! It looks beautiful with the ceramic "Pepsi" bezel and a more matching blue colored dial than the dark navy blue found on the SKX009. For the price and all of the upgrades, this Islander is the way to go rather than modding an SKX and spending lots of money. Oh, and the drilled lugs, hacking, and winding movement...finally what we all wanted!!”
“So, what else do you say when Christmas comes in November? After a long, drawn out Thanksgiving weekend with some family members I can barely tolerate, the mailman brought me something way better than an electric bill.
This version of the Islander is my first acquisition of many more to come. I am sure Marc and his team will keep raising their own bar.
For me, this watch has: Sapphire crystal, case diameter greater than 40mm, luminous bezel insert, solid link bracelet w/ screws instead of pins, hacking and the outline of my beloved Long Island on the case back. The only thing LIW could add is the winning Lotto numbers stapled to the warranty card.
Well done and thank you!”
