“Been looking at LIW for a while. I like Marc's presence on YouTube and his attitude toward his business. Ordered on Black Friday and it arrived in less than a week. It is a beautiful watch and the finish (very un-Seiko alignment) is excellent. I look forward to seeing what LIW offers in the future and will buy again.”

“I’ve owned this watch for almost 6 months and I use this watch for work as a paramedic, lifeguard/ scuba diver and fire academy instructor. You cannot find a scratch on the crystal, bezel or bezel insert. The wear on the case almost can’t be seen with the naked eye. It houses a great and reliable movement. Additionally, there is a huge selection of aftermarket products for it. I don’t think there’s a better watch on the market for the money. Whether you want this watch for leisurely off days or for a rugged job you’ll be happy.”

“I love it. Swapped out the NATO strap for a black CB10 rubber strap with the metal keeper and it looks even better. Very slight alignment issues on the chapter ring, bezel and hour markers but not enough to be concerned with, it's a matter of microns. I'm thrilled with this watch. It looks very striking and provides much more presence on the wrist than its price tag would suggest. Took about 11 days to arrive in Ireland. Very pleased.”

“This watch is the perfect replacement for my broken SKX 007. It's the SKX all grown up and refined; elegant in a way. It is spectacular in person. The combination of attributes makes it a very solid choice for those looking for something esthetically different and more appealing than the usual dive watches being offered today. I realize that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but this one spends little time off my wrist. The nylon strap looks good with it, but due to it's thickness, it raises the watch too far off the wrist for me. Looks and wears great on a thinner black nato. a black silicone, and the BRAC-06. The silver chapter ring is the clencher. Thank you Marc for offering this watch. It's a great partner for my ISL-18.”

“This watch is great! I have worn it exclusively for one month, and I can honestly say that it has not gained or lost one second. My only complaint would be that there was a slight dent on the back, but I did not even notice it until I took off the NATO strap for inspection. It has not affected the performance of the watch. Five stars!”

“Owned almost everything at this point. Omega, Breitling, Longines, Sinn, Seiko, Phoibos, Hamilton, just to name a few. This watch punches well above it's weight. The finishing, design, and quality of this watch are stellar. Everything the SKX should've been. Solid piece that'll stay in the collection. Thank you for the stellar service, Marc and LIW staff! Was already a lifetime customer, but you've just cemented that yet again!”
