“Everything is good except the weight. Too heavy to wear. I got close to 7-inch wrist and it hurts after wearing it for an hour or so. No return accepted so have to sell it back with a loss.”
“This watch has a hefty elegance to it. I really enjoy wearing it. I am impressed with the quality, especially for the price. Definitely it is the favourite watch in my collection.”
“I guess it is the season for red dials.
I was looking at the Orient products until I saw the ISL-66.
This is a watch that pops!
So I went for the "gusto".
Mark has done a fantastic job on value for the price.
But let's start from the dial.
It is not red, it is Merlot or Burgundy.
RICH!
It IS an attention getter but has class!
The color is rich AND captivating.
The rest of the watch is fantastic as well.
Excellent fit and finish, FANTASTIC lume, (the whole thing glows without been charged, indices and bezel), ceramic bezel, sapphire crystal, excellent bracelet, (proper screws, easy to remove links).
The watch LOOKS chunky, but is is not, due to short lug to lug "across" dimensions.
Currently it is the most INTERESTING looking watch that I own.
My wife and daughter fell in love with it immediately and everyone else that has seen it.
My suggestion? GO FOR IT!
You will own a very! unique watch.”
“I received this Red beauty as a gift for my 62 birthday. Very special watch for many reasons. This watch looks so great and the specs are off the chart for this price. I do collect on a small scale but so far this watch has not left my wrist since I received it. Can's say enough about the quality and style of My islander ISL 66”
“This watch has it all for me. 205gms after 7" wrist sizing, double dome Sapphire crystal, sunburst deep red dial, ceramic bezel insert, NH36 day/date movement, great bracelet and case style, solid end links and milled scissor clasp.
You can't buy anything from Seiko with these features for anywhere near this price, I will be back to get at least one more of this style diver.”
“I love watches under $500... Seiko Divers, Hamilton Khaki, etc. This Islander is great. Nice bracelet with screws for adjustment (which are appreciated as they are easy to take out). I usually mod Seiko's with Sapphire double-domes so it's nice that this came stock with a sapphire crystal. The red is a beautiful deep wine color. I might mod it with a cream colored bezel. 4.5 stars for one issue: the black bezel does not perfectly line up with the 12. It's very subtle but worth mentioning. That's the only flaw I found. I'm very happy with my purchase. Marc and Long Island Watch are always easy to deal with. Recommended.”
“There are easily a dozen of the Islander range that I want. For my first I went for the stunning red dial of the #ISL-66.
Received in the UK only 2 weeks after order. Had to pay UK VAT & customs (which I was expecting) and still the watch is excellent value. The finish and quality is of a high standard which any name brand would charge twice as much for. I've been wearing it constantly and love just looking at the dial.
All in all a first rate watch and first rate service.”
