“I've been wanting a field watch. I considered a bunch from Vaer, Hamilton, Citizen and some other offbeat brands. I couldn't find one with the value / quality / features as the Islander. You really cannot beat it for the dollar. If I have one quibble it's the strap, but that's easily remedied. In my opinion, this is a watch for people who love watches.”
“All you could ask for of a daily wear watch. I needed something for work that I wouldn’t have to baby, but was a step up from some of my “yardwork” watches. This ticks all of the boxes: lightweight, sapphire crystal, hardened casing, and solar to boot. I opted for the grey dial since that’s something I’m lacking. Looks stellar with a NATO strap, and is everything I need for a daily workhorse.”
“What you get with this watch for this price is pretty fantastic. Coated titanium case, solar powered, anti-reflective sapphire, what else could you want. It wears very light on the wrist (thank you titanium) and has kept accurate time so far. The strap is a bit stiff at first, but with time should soften/break in.”
“Love the watch, I like the simplicity of solar and no date, planned use is for everyday once I get a band that I like. the band with the watch is comfortable but has a rough outer texture, I prefer leather anyway. The lume is strong and legible as are the numerals. Once I got it fully charged, it has kept perfect time. Overall a good product.”
“I have been looking for a lightweight watch for everyday wear because of a wrist injury. I own several automatic Islanders and other heavier watches, but they are now uncomfortable after a couple of hours. This titanium watch has a sapphire crystal, good lume, and is easy to read day and night. It is exactly what I was looking for.”
