“Don't let the smaller case size fool you, this has so much wrist presence it speaks for itself. One of Seiko's best efforts and easily my favourite watch.”
“I am using the ALPINIST right now. The well proportionate green dial, which seemed unusual is, in reality, beautiful. All my friends like the watch. The precision is awesome (2-3 seconds p/day), the power reserve also. The compass usage a boy scouts trick may be used with any watch; but with the ALPINIST it is more fun and makes the watch more interesting (atch Mark's video on YouTube about it). The delivery was fast and the watch came in pristine! Thanks Island Watch”
“Exceeded my expectations. What a gorgeous watch.
Island Watch you came through with extremely fast shipping and delivery once again. I will no doubt continue to shop here”
“Never seen the watch in the metal but heard a lot about it on Youtube. It is beautiful. A field watch with class. The band sucks but I change bands on all watches I own. I wish it was a little bit bigger, if it was 40mm it would be perfect.”
“I'm in love with this watch, and am going to wear it everywhere. To work no matter how badly it clashes? Yup. Backpacking in the High Sierra? Yup. A's games? Obviously. I ordered a Perlon strap for when it's time to get wet and dirty, but I plan on sticking with the much-derided strap to see if it ever breaks in. She's only lost 20 seconds after a week out of the box. Bury me in it.”
“Fantastic great looking watch, and you get a lot of watch for your money, specially the 200m water resistance with screw down crown. I recommend changing to a lighter golden brown distressed leather strap, as the standard strap that comes with the watch feels a bit cheap. But I bought the case and movement, not the strap :). Great experience with Long Island watch. Quick dispatch and delivery to the UK.”
