“Simple, with great functional design elements.
Nice chunky watch with a super strong bracelet and clasp. Solid.
Really well thought out!
Looking forward to the Islander field watch arriving.”
“I have seen these "wave dials" on seiko mods but none at this level of execution. This watch checks off a lot of boxes in what I have wanted in watches. Luminous dial ✔ï¸, Samurai style case ✔ï¸, quality bracelet ✔ï¸, and as a bonus a conversation piece. Love it.
This is my second Islander Watch, I also own the ISL 54.
I must also compliment customer service at Long Island Watch. I had an issue and they stepped up and took care of the problem. I will definitely be a returning customer.”
“Hokusai's iconic design on a quality mechanical watch. Looks great and is such a joy to wear. I regretted missing the first drop, but I caught the second drop as quick as I could and I am so glad that I did.”
“I tried to buy this watch after I saw it reviewed on Long Island watch but unfortunately it had sold out. But I left my address anyway in the hope there would be a reissue. What do you know? Against expectation, I WAS notified a couple months later. A nice surprise. I ordered one and I'm pleased it arrived ontime and was as advertised. Great service. Since then I have ordered a blue leather watch strap and expect it any day. I hope it will look good with that dial as I am a fan of Uki Oe wood block prints ,as well as Mark's show.”
“When I first seen this "The Great Wave off Kanagawa" dial on Marc's YouTube channel, I had to have it. I waited several months before it was back in stock. It does not disappoint. I have seen this dial on other watches, but on the ISL-62, the dial remains pure, no date, no hour markers and no logo, leaving the artwork unspoiled. A friend of mine told me it was nice watch but it seemed like a "niche" watch. With over 20 watches in my modest collection, I have room for a niche or two. Living on Long Island Sound, I'll get great use for this watch when warmer weather rolls around. This watch and doing business with Long Island Watch are both amazing.”
“You won't find a better watch for the price. Everything is great, the fit and finish is great, the bezel action is really good, the case finish is outstanding and the bracelet feels amazingly solid. The milled clasp closes very confidently, the screws are very solid and it comes with a small screw driver to adjust the bracelet (very easy to do compared to a push pin bracelet) and it has proper solid end links. The dial is amazing, looks great in and out of light plus the blue hand set is a perfect shade of blue.”
