“The ISL-53 and 54 really stand out as Mark’s foray into original design. Could it be offered on a bracelet? Or have applied indices, a different case, or a different movement? Sure—but then it wouldn’t be the ISL-53, it’d be an homage. For all the Watchuseek lurkers asking for a watch with unrealistic parameters: here it is. Sapphire crystal, wearable proportions, gorgeous dial, at home in the board room or the beach, water resistant to 100m, nice finish, original design. This is as close to a one-watch collection watch in this price range as it gets!”
“The folks at Long Island Watch have really outdone themselves with this exceptional timepiece. The feel, look and quality are outstanding for the price point. My wife mistook it for a Bell & Ross at first! This piece has replaced my Longines as my daily wearer and will probably stay that way for awhile. Keep up the great work guys! :)”
“Fantastic watch, exceptional value and service from long Island watch.
I am very satisfied with this purchase and will be buying this brand again. I am happy to have it as a part of my collection.”
“This is an easy to read, comfortable to wear, and well made watch. It fits my 7 inch wrist great. It loses about 5 seconds a day which is better than I expected.”
“This is about as dressy as I get for work. I just received it and wore it for the first time today at work and I had a client think this was a Panerai watch. I don't personally see the resemblance to their pieces but the fact that he put it up at that level of fit and finish at $199 speaks volumes to what Mark is doing - bringing a lot to the table for your money.”
