“I received the first watch and wore it for a couple of days then it stopped. Reset it wouldn't it a bit and wore it a couple more days it stopped. Informed Marc about the problem he sent a new one out and took care of the problem. Phoibos I'll give 4 stars Long Island Watch customer service get's 5.”
“My 1st watch from LIW. Thank you Marc and team for excellent service! Ordered May 26th Sunday; Shipped May 29th; Recd June 5th in Toronto in excellent condition. Charged tax 13% (ON) on the CDN converted price, plus $9.95 handling fee by CBSA. After one week of daily use, my findings so far: everything works & looks great; incredible lume on dial & bezel; nice heft and height; incredible kracken engraving (etches are sharp to the feel!) on caseback; on the slightly minus side, the bracelet edge has a sharpness to it making it uncomfortable over long duration (can leave marks on wrist); when screwing in the crown ensure to take care, otherwise unscrewing action later may cause unwanted slip into date change mode. Timing accuracy still under observation.”
“The Wave Master is a solid design with great finish work for the price. The coin edge bezel has a very satisfying action but does have a slight bit of back play. The lume is striking and the case back is an interesting design with the incorporation of the King Octopus logo. The engineer bracelet sets the watch off well but does not feel quite as finely finished as a StrapCode design. The only issue I have had with the watch is that the outer clip of the clasp comes undone with a moderate amount of pressure, such as when the wearer bends his wrist back when pushing up from a table or desk. After working with the links and micro adjustments I was able to minimize the issue. I prefer a snug fitting bracelet and this may contribute to problem”
“I’m new to the watch collecting arena, and for me, finding a safe and awesome place to purchase watches is a big deal for me. Thank you for making my purchase painless! I have a few watches in my wish list that I will be buying soon. Oh — and the YouTube videos are how I found you. Very informative. Thanks again!”
“I got this watch not just because I don't have to mod anything out of the box but because it checks everything off my list. AR Sapphire crystal, Ceramic Bezel with Blue Lume everything etc etc you get the point. The bezel action is great. Its easy to turn and grip and it locks in place quite well. Despite there being back play by almost a full second, it turns back into place like an elastic band after you release grip from the bezel. The bracelet, if you have the right screwdriver for it, is actually super easy to size. What does bother me quite a bit is that the bezel up at 12 lines up at either 59.5 minutes (to the left) or 0.5 minute (to the right) and its super obvious. Really ruins the whole watch face for me especially at night with that clear BGW9 lume because it makes the off alignment pop even more. I really want to love this watch and make it my daily but that bezel just kills it for me.”
“I love all the extras you get with long island watch. Video reviews and comparisons by Marc and a great website that has all the info you could want. I would rather buy from them than Amazon any day. Keep up the great work.”
“Love the watch! Love the features -ceramic bezel insert, excellent movement, sapphire crystal, etc., at this price point are fantastic! Feels well made. Love the look. Only a few drawbacks. It is a very heavy watch, and it wears that way. Also, the etching and milling on the back and the bracelet could have been polished a bit better - the edges feel "scratchy". I would still buy this watch again, though - and I highly recommend it!”
