“The fit and finish are top notch, right where they should be.
Wish the purple color was a tad more deeper but non the less this is a rare color in the world of monster watches and a must have.”
“I am really happy with everything on this watch. The Monster design plus unique colors combine very well on the beach and work, if you wanna be yourself and have lots of fun!”
“Let me start by thanking Marc and crew for the included screwdriver for sizing. I left my watch tools at work and had accepted that I would not be able to actually wear this watch until I sized it the following day. I was thrilled to see the included screw driver and was able to size it perfectly and immediately. Totally unnecessary and cool.
The watch itself is great. Maybe better than great. I love the bold choice of color (PURPLE!!!) and throwback design (Monster). The bezel action is very, very good. The crown action is just as good. The case finishing is perfect. The lume is great. The bracelet is very solid and fits the watch perfectly. It looks like the watch will be running about +8 seconds/day which is perfectly acceptable for an automatic in this price range (imho). I think this dial and hand combo would look good with the black bezel as well, especially if the black bezel had lumed markers. I think the only down side here is that there is no dive extension in the bracelet. I would also prefer a bracelet with more taper to it, but that is a personal preference and I totally understand that this style of watch has never had a tapering bracelet.
I am so happy that Marc and his team of watch wizards are making these bold choices in design. This is a pretty competitive price bracket, but the ability to really get something that feels this special and unique while also being tried and true (NH36 movement) makes Islander watches the brand I have been recommending to friends and family.
Marc, as a fellow business owner and entrepreneur I applaud your bravery and boldness to bring your dreams to fruition. Well done friend. You are an inspiration. I mean, you did not exactly launch your personal car to Mars in a rocket, but, dude… a Purple Monster… sweeeeet!”
