“The watch is really nice. The quality for the price is great. The clasp on the band is a bit tight but I think that will loosen up over time. The bracelet is otherwise top notch. I really appreciate the screw pins and the overall quality.
I'd buy again.”
“It's a perfect size watch. Great looking well made nice movement. It's the perfect package. It's a little more of a dress watch as far as looks with fluted bezel but a great everyday wear. When mark comes out with spare parts like solid bracelet and smooth bezel. ill probably buy bracelet but the bezel is growing on me. I'll probably buy the next highbeat watch mark comes out with that has black dail smooth bezel. It also keeps great time. Mark has a great collection of islanders and this is another home run.”
“Its a nice looking watch. Well built with a sweet movement And the perfect size. Everything I want in a Everyday wear. More on the dress side with fluted bezel but mark makes another watch with it. I also heard he's coming out with parts for it and I'll be definitely buying the bracelet. And when the black dial with smooth bezel comes out I'll definitely buy it. The lume is fine for the price of watch. lume is expensive so I'm happy with what its got. Mark makes great watches for the money you get more then what other companies do...like seiko lol. Another home run from islander.”
“This is a great watch and a great value from Island Watch. The grey dial looks fantastic especially outdoor, the 38mm size is perfect for me, the bracelet & clasp are also solidly built, very easy to adjust and also look great. The crown is also nicely done in term of size (not too small, not too big) and is easy to use. But what astonish me is the accuracy of the movement, I've been wearing this watch 24/7 since I received it about three weeks ago and I'm getting roughly one second fast per day. I know Miyota 9015s are accurate but this is COSC level accuracy. So all in all a great watch and a great value and in my case it's my chronometer watch.”
“First of all, I think this is a great watch, perfect size, great finish and keeps very accurate time. Absolutely looks like a particular watch by a brand whose name begins with an R. The main opportunity I feel Mark could consider for improvement of this specific color-way would be to increase the contrast between the handset and the gray dial used.
Partly because I am middle aged, In certain conditions, and especially with all the reflection coming from the fluted bezel, I was not able to easily read the time because the thin, silver hands, blended in with the gray dial. Perhaps a solid white hand or other more contrasting color than silver would have made it easier to read the time in all lighting conditions.”
“This watch is a really nice time piece. The gray sunburst dial is beautiful and the sweeping of the hands is fantastic.. The 38mm size is perfect for my wrist, and I honestly believe all dress watches should be 38mm. Quality glass and movement. I'm really please with my purchase. Also I want to mention that Mark, the owner, is a class act.”
“This watch looks absolutely beautiful, even nicer than what it appears in video or pictures. Sunburst grey dial is stunning and 38mm case is perfect size for my wrist. Fluted Bezel, Sapphire crystal, Exhibition case back, SuperLuminova filled hands & markers are my favorite features. I found this watch to be very comfortable to wear. I just started wearing the watch so I don't have much feedback on timekeeping accuracy, but I expect it to be excellent due to the Miyota 9015 movement. The package included a screwdriver for sizing the bracelet. I only wish they had added an Islander logo on the Clasp. Other than that I love my first Islander watch. I would definitely recommend this watch to anyone looking for a Datejust style watch on a reasonable price.”
“+1 to Mark's review. this is my fourth watch with the Myota high-beat movement, (the first from Long Island watch), but it is the only one running at +1 second fast per day. The others are all running between 10 and 20 seconds fast per day. Also the bracelet is like wearing silk. I couldn't be more pleased with the watch.”
