“This watch comes with all the most important features - screw down crown, a 24-hour dial, sapphire crystal, and hacking with a very competitive price. After changing out the strap to a brown leather and white stitching makes it a perfect match with the white dial. I have been wearing this since I received it and enjoying it. Keep up the good work.

“Had the watch for a cpl months now and I'd give it a 4.8 of 5. Just as advertised and I love it. Watch is super durable and comfortable after breaking in the strap. The straight forward looks and design are perfect for a field watch despite clearly borrowing elements from another watch(s). The lume on this thing is awesome! The only minor gripe is the nylon outer piece of the strap. It seems pretty durable and adds a tough layer of protection for the softer leather underneath..but..the nylon also frays constantly. Its frustrating trying to find a field watch with 100m water resistance so this is a great choice esp as its under $200. If your on the fence id say get it as it checks all the boxes for a field watch.”

“Only knocking one star for the strap... it was fraying a bit by the end of the first day and was not very comfortable or easy to put on. I'll definitely be replacing it. The watch, however, is fantastic. Easy to ready, lightweight, and interesting (yet simple) enough to keep me looking at it all day. If this was changed to NATO or leather strap for $10 more, it'd be a 5-star for me. Great job with the watch nonetheless, it will be my daily driver and replacing my tiny Seiko 5.”

“Great value and outstanding service! After purchasing several other models from Marc over the past couple years (ISL63,53,36,34) and an SKX009 I am consistently impressed with the quality of the watches he brings to the market.”

“I'm very pleased with this watch. It's been hard to find white dial watches that are simple, but elegant. This fits the bill for me on both accounts. It would have been even more awesome if I could have chosen a different strap, but that is by no means a deal breaker. I definitely recommend this watch if you are in the market for a white dial field watch.”

“This is a very well made field watch. For a watch with sapphire crystals on front and back and a screw down crown, the price is amazing. Also, containing an automatic movement that's easy to repair or replace is another plus. Island Watch was prompt in sending the ISL-40 after my order was placed and it was quickly delivered. Again, a very good wristwatch and a very good buying experience.”

“This was my first purchase of an Islander watch, but it will not be my last. This has become my go to watch in the last month since I purchased it. The quality is outstanding. My only complaint is the band that it comes with, but that is more of a style choice and not anything to do with the band itself.”
