“Recently had the opportunity to handle a Grand Seiko with an almost identical face. I was really struck by the similarities, the quality of the polishing & overall attention to detail was remarkable, and, really comparable. This SARB035 is just a stunner, even the bracelet was a pleasant surprise. The feel on my 7" wrist is very comfortable, the 38mm size just fits perfectly. The detailing on the cream-face dial is exquisite. This is a very complimentary piece for my Alpinist, same size & feel, but a completely different look. This is a mid-priced watch with a distinctly high-end feel. Can't end this review without noting the excellent and quick customer service Marc provides, any problem or questions are immediately addressed.”
“Simply the perfect every day watch; somewhat understated on the wrist, but when you look closely, is really something special. From the elegant multi-layered case design, to the subtle sunburst nature of the creamy pearlescent dial, the more you wear the watch, the more you love it.
Fast shipping to Australia (~2 weeks). Many thanks Marc - very happy overall and glad to be able to support Long Island Watch!”
“I wanted a Japan made Japan market watch from a reputable seller. Because I knew the warranty may not be good in this country I thought it might be tricky. Marc’s name and reputation came up stellar on several aficionado websites. I was a little concerned that phone contact wasn’t possible but true to expectations my inquiry was answered promptly by Marc. The watch is a gift to my son and was a level above my budget and I was made comfortable with the stretch without feeling “sold”. Marc also directed me to a repair restoration facility for an old watch I had. You may or may not find a better price, however, comfort with the sale is priceless. LIWatch will be my go to source for anything horological! Oh yeah, the watch is beautiful. Perfect size and a great band (better than domestically available Seiko I believe.”
“Really nice watch. Perfect size for dressy apparel. And in a world of black and white-dial watches, cream is a great alternative.
Always great dealing with Marc at Long Island Watch. None of the anxiety I feel when purchasing on eBay.”
“Beautiful watch .....take your chances online? Or maybe pay a couple dollars more to get the excellent service and AWSOME reputation Marc has worked to achieve.
I know where I’m spending my money.”
“Buying from LongIslandWatch for the first time, I was a tad hesitant, but with the online outpouring of positive reviews, I felt confident in my purchase. Marc did not let me down. Fast delivery and great communication. Watch is lovely and is exactly what I was seeking. I'll surely shop with LongIsland again. Thanks for a great experience.”
