“This is my second Islander watch and I'm happy to say not my last. Excellent value for the price. I highly recommend. My only issue I've had is the watch strap. If you have a larger wrist be forwarded you may need a bigger one. I'm one the next to last hole which makes it difficult to buckle.”
“Crazy to think this thing cost less than $200. If Marc keeps putting out watches like this for this price, why would anyone bother with Seiko anymore? Islanders offer so much more for the money.”
“Great looking watch and its keeping good time too...I think a sterile dial would look even better but that is me being picky!
The blue dial is understated and beautiful.”
“I've been eyeing the Islander watches since they debuted and finally pulled the trigger on this one as I don't have any field style watches in my small collection. The dial is super clear, has great lume, and I love the color even more in person. The strap is fantastic and goes well with the dial. I think I'll get a lot of wear from it before I want to change it. It's also a great value at the price, I think anyone who chooses this watch will be pleased”
“Marc you have done it again! I told myself one and done with Islanders, and here I am on my third personal one and fourth overall (gave one away that I totally regret). This field watch is by far the best, the dial is strikingly clear - everything you could possible want in a field watch. A perfect size, with great specs and at a very affordable price. Before this I had been saving my pennies for a Hamilton Field Khaki mechanical, although a fine piece, the Islander offers so much of the same feel with a bit more fun. You are totally right, this is a complete strap monster. The included grey strap is a perfect choice and already gotten compliments on it. I've got 3 more straps on the way and can't wait to share on Instagram the new looks. Kudos Sir - keep doing what you are doing! At the price I may have to pick up one more.”
