“I bought the Black colorway and the blue was a no-brainer. I've dubbed it the "Planet Islander" myself, as I get a Planet Ocean vibe from it but better than that underwhelming bloated piece in every way, including accuracy, lume and a bezel insert that is actually visible. Try it on a rubber waffle strap...perfect 60s tool watch vibe. Put it on a Nato, again perfect. Dive with it.....absolutely tool useful and incredibly visible at depth....over a Drysuit......at altitude (6400 ft), in a reservoir...in the winter(5 degrees)...in Wyoming 10 feet visibility. It just works. Wear it with a suit, perfect. This is the most adaptable watch in my collection, and if you pair it with the islander ratcheting divers' clasp as I have with both my Southolds...it completes the package. Marc, maybe make a Ratcheting divers clasp with the islander logo? Or a Scuba-themed logo with the last air bubble being the islander logo? Seriously folks, this watch is just the best...BUY IT!”
“I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my son. I have to say it exceeds my expectations. The fit and finish are very good, particularly for the price point. I'm not sure I would say this is a spec monster, but if it isn't it's darn close. It has a rock solid movement, a sapphire crystal and great lume. The case and bracelet are well done. I would recommend this watch.”
“The Islander Southold is a fantastic value for money spent. The build quality is amazing and attention was given to every single detail in the design. The band is extremely comfortable and fits like a glove. I highly recommend not only this model, but Long Island Watch. This company is making incredible watches for a great price. Marc has created a wonderful line of very affordable watches with amazing styles that rival the major brands at a fraction of the price.”
