“The concept, case, dial, and bracelet are all standouts on this beautiful and unique watch. I am excited to see an American-made movement and the display back is a welcome addition. It is important to note the pushers do not “click” in the same tactile way as other chronographs and the timing second hand does not return to 0 (even after resetting it manually with the crown pulled out). Marc has a winning design here that commemorates a landmark achievement for our country — Grumman’s LEM — and I have no doubt he will continue to refine the watch over time.”
“GOOD LOOKING WATCH; VERY LEGIBLE.LIKE THE CONTINUOUS RUNNING CENTRAL SECONDS HAND.
ONLY BEEF IS THAT THE PUSHERS HAVE ZERO FEEDBACK AND NOT SATISFYING TO THE TOUCH.WILL BE GIVING THIS TO MY GRANDSON & HOPE HE LIKES IT.”
“Love the watch! Looks awesome in person and to showcase the movement with the display case back is a sight to see. Bracelet is comfortable. I have it on a vintage bond nylon strap [pictured] and looks great!”
“I am very surprised at how well made every piece of this watch is. If the Bethpage cost three times as much, it would still feel right. Well done Islander! I will definitely buy another Islander watch.”
