“I own a couple Seiko dive watches, a Bulova, a Citizen, I even bought a few top of the line” homage watches and the Islander 31 is my nicest watch. The finish is as nice as all of them, the movement is more accurate than all the others. Has not lost a whole minute since December when I got it, which comes out to LESS than half second per day. The bezel turns easier than my skx if I had to name a fault. I’d like it tighter. The lume is almost on par with my new seiko, better than all others. The band is better than all of them. I don’t care for the gmt bezel insert so I’m going to order a dive insert. Can’t say enough good things. Planning on another soon. Oh and I love that the AR coating isn’t obnoxious blue like all the other import homages. It’s clear or subtle blue. Very beautiful.”
“These watches are an awesome value for money. Marc and Island Watch do a great job bringing people the specs they want for a reasonable price. The compatibility with standard Seiko components is an excellent plus as well, for future modification.”
“Just received this and it's a better turtle than a Seiko turtle unless you spend twice as much. Awesome blue dial that pics don't capture. This goes along with my ISL-3. I may go rubber strap with this one. Not that bracelet is bad at all.
Thx, Marc!”
“I just got my watch today! The pictures just don't do the color of the dial justice. The shipping was fast and I couldn't be happier with the watch! Thanks”
“Didn't think I'd like this watch as much as I do. Thought it looked good and I'd enjoy it, but it's so much more stunning in person. Marc has a real eye for blue. My only request would be to add straps that will match the dial colors. Took me awhile to find a nice perlon to match.”
“Awesome Watch from an Awesome Company meeting the Requests of Customers with this Lineup and Series that continues to grow. Have a other Islander and Seiko Watches, and the ISL-31 is my favorite to date. Many complements from friends and family that have seen it. So much so that now wife if getting the ISL-52. And Customer Service is on top of things when needed. Refreshing to see in today's environment. Thanks Marc and Crew!!!”
