“For the price of this watch, you cannot beat the quality and presence it has. I own glycine and marathons, and was just as equally impressed with the quality of this watch when I held it in my hands. The quality is there: the dial, hands, case, crystal, etc. The attention to detail is obviously there, almost if I designed the watch myself lol. The screw down crown and case-back are greatly appreciated in the design. The sapphire crystal is obviously a higher quality one and appears to be a thicker one...people don't realize the difference, but synthetic sapphire varies in quality. I had a newer Hamilton khaki black PVD case sapphire crystal crack awhile ago from a slight bump! My older khaki has taken hard hits and is still intact...I think many companies are cheaping out on parts these days...I also had another newer khaki H50 movement (based on eta 2801) break! All of my seiko NH35 movements I've owned are robust and I've never had a problem with them, so I know for a fact I can trust this watch for the most part without hesitation. If you are hesitating on "pulling the trigger" on this watch...do it! No regrets here! Absolutely stunning!!! If I had to nitpick anything, I would have preferred the date at the 4.5 hour mark without a white box and even possibly a black date ring with white numbers. Also triangles at all hour indices...kinda like my glycine combat the 3, 6, 9 and 12 are larger triangles and every other is a smaller triangle...the 12 could be a rectangle or reversed triangle or something to make it obviously the 12. Long Island Watch hit the ball out of the park with this one!!!!”

“Watch arrived well packaged and about 2 weeks earlier than expected. Exactly as advertised and looks even better in the flesh. Running about 2 seconds fast so appears I got a good one and we'll regulated. Really good value for money. Very happy with purchase, highly recommend product and company”

“This is my first Islander Watch, but not my last. The brushed finishing of the case is beautiful and the overall look and feel of the watch is so well done I wear it nearly everyday. I am really glad Marc went with a date on this model. It is small and discreet and having a date is just more useful than not having one. I love this watch! Keep it up!”

“I like the watch! Good value so far. It is easy to read the time at a glance. I like that there is a mark for every minuet / second at all positions on the dial face. No guessing in certain areas like some watches. Easy to read at night if it was not covered by a sleeve while in the light.”

“Bang for buck? I keep saying it but its true. Long Island Watches delivers great quality and value and the ISL-41 Field Watch fits that perfectly. Simple yet functional and looks great too. I put mine on a two tone Nato strap that I purchaed from LIW as well and it has become a near daily wear as it is both rugged for an active life style yet nice enough for near formal events. I love Long Island Watch and the designs Mark pulls together.”
