“Everything about the watch is perfect except for the bezel that can be rotated the wrong way with just a little force. Also the lume on the insert is a litte uevenly applied in the triangle at the 12 O´ Clock mark.
The bracelet has a good quality feel to it and the movement keeps very good time.”
“Mark's 38mm Islander dive watch is my ultimate tool watch. If you got run over by a truck this watch would survive. It's tough. Keeps time like it's supposed to (most important), but shine a light on it, lay back in bed holding the watch at arms length out in front of you , in the dark, and just try to take your eyes away. It shines like a diamond in the night. How fun is that!. It's a joy to own and Mark has the ultimate support if help is needed. I know from experience. Thank you Mark!”
“Well-executed, professional SKX mod with thoughtful, tasteful design. I LOVE the fit and finish of this little diver. Perfect size for my 6.5 inch wrist. This is the upgraded, custom-modded SKX013 you are looking for. Looks amazing, feels amazing, IS amazing. BRAVO Marc and team! It's almost perfect, biggest downside is the included bracelet (pins are impossible to remove) but at the unbelievable bargain price of 299 I can't complain. Easy enough to fix: I threw it on a strapcode jubilee and it's gorgeous. I also dislike crown-guards but hey, what can you do, that's the SKX case for you. Having drilled lugholes, a beautiful flat AR sapphire crystal, nice dial, and premium ceramic lumed bezel more than make up for it. The bezel action is smooth, satisfying, and lume is luscious. Movement upgrade was a great choice. I find my watch running roughly +9 spd, pretty good in this range.
I highly recommend this product. Pepsi version looks good, too. Hope to see more 38mm options soon.”
“Just what I was looking for, perfect watch. Sapphire Crystal, hacking, winding, ceramic bazel insert, and 200m water resistance. Can't wait to see more of the mid size.”
“Bracelet was underwhelming should have come with screw endlinks and oyster style, I replaced it with a strapcode. Great watch overall. The crown is VERY tight to turn down, I have to use the finger nails on both thumbs to tighten or loosen it. It seems to be getting a bit better with time. I put a coinedge bezel and strapcode oyster on mine and it is a winner.”
“Top-quality diver on a budget. This watch sits perfectly on my 6.75-inch wrist with comfort. Excellent workmanship all around. An only minor inconvenience was resizing the bracelet. It was virtually impossible to remove the pins. I had to seek help from a local watchmaker for an adjustment. Nothing more needs to be said on this watch. Paid budget price for a premium product. Extremely happy with service, communication, and delivery. I will not hesitate to deal with Long Island Watch again in the near future.”
“The islander 38mm dove watch is a great product and does not disappoint. Comfortable bracelet, lots of attention to detail in the dial and good polishing.”
