“Thank you Marc the watch arrived safely packed and in perfect condition. Some people have been very critical of the strap on this watch I have so far found it to be fine maybe when its showing signs of use I will change it in the future. This watch just oozes quality, I have worn the watch and it does not feel like a burden to wear, its not too heavy it just feels and looks right, there are many reviews on youtube to see I recommend The Urban Gentry channel, The Governor will tell you in depth everything you need to know about this watch and its all true. I highly recommend Island Watches and this Seiko.”
“I had heard good things about Marc. I enjoy his videos and wanted to get myself a Seiko SARB017 Alpinist. This is my first automatic time peice and I absolutely love it. Glad to own it as I would be dissapointed if it had been discontinued. I emailed Marc and he replied very quickly and was happy to help. Delivery was quick taking roughly 4 days to get from the US to the UK and roughly 4 days passing through customs. I am very pleased with the watch and Marc's customer service. I would recommend Long Island Watches and will certainly be buying from Marc again. Thanks!”
“Mine is a bit slow (-10) and the internal bezel rattles a bit but it makes up for it with its good looks and good size. The hands, dial and date window are all A+. This is not a small watch though—it wears more like a 40mm than a 38, so be aware of that if you prefer smaller watches.”
“Received my Seiko Alpinist today in the post. Less than a week after ordering, it's on my wrist in the UK.
The watch is absolutely stunning. Shame about the strap it comes on but everyone says that's a negative. Quickly put it on a nice Nato and pre-ordered a strapcode bracelet.
Marc, thank you so much for the great service, I will most certainly be back in the future!”
“It's a great watch! The size is great, the build quality is excellent and service from Long Island watch is always top notch. The only weak bit is the watch strap, but I always replace them with natos anyway.”
