“What a watch! I have been looking for something stunning and reasonable priced. I can wear this with dress shirts, casual or even a t-shirt. Sizing was unbelievable easy, the micro adjustments made the fit perfect. If your are looking for something stunning that doesn't require a second mortgage then this is the one.”
“I have been impressed with the value on all the Islander watches i won, but this one is the jewel of them all, in my opinion. A beautiful watch that is slim enough to fit under shirt cuffs for formal occasions, yet tough enough to wear everyday without worrying about damage, and it has the classic look that everyone knows. This one attracts attention from people when I wear it.”
“Truly a beautiful watch. I'm amazed at the quality in general, but especially at this price point. I love the blue dial – it's more subtle and muted than other blue dials I've seen, but I think that's appropriate for a dressier watch, and it makes it a little more unique. As others have mentioned, it's very comfortable to wear. I also appreciate the low profile that this movement allows. So far, it's keeping great time. The jubilee bracelet is beautiful too. This was my first Islander watch, but it will not be my last!”
“Having grown on Long Island, I appreciate this wonderful source of great watches for great prices. Long Island Watch has a wonderful inventory of excellent current value added watch brands, particularly their own customized Islander brand. I am amazed at the great quality of the blue dial dress watch which I purchased this February. It is the perfect size and could easily pass for that very sought after unmentioned brand which everyone wants to buy however their watches are extremely unavailable. I am on the list for one but decided to get the ISLANDER HI-BEAT AUTOMATIC DRESS WATCH WITH BLUE DIAL, AR SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL #ISL-38 instead so I can wear it now and not wait 5 to 10 years, if I am lucky. And it did not cost over 5,000 dollars! Marc does a great job in innovating and producing and making available his Islander brand as well as the other great watch brands he sells. I have purchased several great watches from him in the past and will continue to check Long Island Watch for future purchases. Thanks Marc and Long Island watch.”
“When you buy a watch, you are really buying the brand. What it stands for and what's the design philosophy. I don't really need another daily wearer, but I'm deeply attracted by Marc's genuine attitude and the crowd sourced design of islander watches. I know I have to get one.
Back to ISL-38, it's a great watch. Well built, beautiful and light-weight comfortable to wear. Coming from Rolex Date 1500 and Tudor Black Bay 36. ISL-38 doesn't feel any less and it stands on its own. I don't have trouble putting this next to those watches. It's easy to size which is important for a 6 inch wrist like myself. So this is a god sent for smaller wrist wearer.
If you are on the fence, buy it. It went out of stock unfortunately and I'm really excited for the grey one.
Good job on another excellent piece!
The only minor thing to improve is the clasp being too big for the watch's design, and the finish is a little rough. Not a deal breaker at all.”
“For $350 you get a smooth high beat miyota movement that is extremely quiet, a sapphire crystal with a beautiful blue dial, and a shiny fluted bezel. Also, comes with a nice strapcode quality bracelet with simple to size screws!
Anyone who is into dress watches or wants a cool homage to a Datejust, this is your watch. Best deal I've ever seen!”
“This is an extremely nice watch. I've owned a few Rolex Datejust's and this watch stacks up. No bull. A beautifully designed and built watch. It's crazy. But true.”
“Just received 2 days ago and it's a great watch.
It's my fist jubilee bracelet and it feet perfectly with the watch. The only trouble now is that when other colors will follow i will have to buy an other islander watch like a salmon or purple one !”
