“This is my first Islander watch and I love it. The fit and finish is perfect and I love the classic Yachtmaster look. I was on the fence about buying an Islander until I saw this one. The embossed ceramic insert and double domed sapphire crystal sealed the deal for me. I have an SKX that I wear as well but this piece is head and shoulders above the SKX in that it is more accurate, has drilled logs which makes bracelet/strap changes effortless, hand winds and hacks, and has the double domed sapphire. 10/10 would buy another Islander.”
“Well made, good value, solid build and specifications. There is something about it that puts a smile on my face every time i look at it. Recommended!”
“My first Island watch. I must say I am very impressed at the quality of watch I received vs the price point.
The watch looks amazing in person. Feels great to wear. Bezel, chapter ring alignment is great (better than some of my more expensive seikos). Bezel has almost zero back play, and turns smooth and quiet, no weird tight zones when turning.
Great watch!”
“Beautiful execution, this model should definitely be considered in more colors and matching bezel options, perhaps with a polished center link on the bracelet, or even a two tone option as i see none are available in an islander. I also purchased the ISL 19 and in my opinion is nice but not the same wow factor that the ISL18 has.”
“Simply a phenomenal watch from a phenomenal staff. Mark, I don't know if you read these, but congratulations and thank you for making a great product at such a competitive price. Keep it up!”
