“Not only am I completely happy with my Seiko SKX, but I'm also impressed with personal service I received from Island Watch on my first order.
I will certainly make another purchase when I'm looking for my next watch.”
“Late to the game, I wanted to try one of these iconic, "end of an era" watches. I totally get why they are so popular. Good time-keeping, great bezel action, superb lume, and spectacular looks. It came with the rubber strap, and I also ordered the OEM bracelet--both work great. I splurged on the Made-in-Japan model, even if there is no proof they are better. Don't miss hand-winding or hacking of the 7S26 movement, as my OCD is somewhat under control.”
“Very please with the quality and workmanship of he addition of the double domed sapphire crystal and ceramic bezel insert to my new Seiko SKX007J. Would recommend the 'have it your way' program to upgrade to scratch resistance.”
“I customized the Hardlex crystal to AR Double Domed Sapphire, chapter ring to white with black markers, oem bezel to ceramic limes bezel. I didn’t order a custom bracelet but should have. I keep the original rubber strap on this order. Pleasant surprise was that all the oem parts I had swapped out also came with the order packed in baggies, if I ever wanted to swap parts back. I will definitely buy a strap code bracelet to put on at some point. After wearing the skx for a few weeks, I have received plenty of compliments and I love the fit and feel of the watch. Ceramic Bezel Lume looks fantastic. Customized chapter ring also lines up perfectly so no rolling the dice on Seiko qc on chapter ring alignment. No complaints at all. I swapped Original rubber Strap to NATO and it feels much better. I will definitely buy from Marc agin. Will definitely buy an Islander watch or three from Marc’s New line”
“an avid diver and active person so the watch has had extremely rough use (almost abusive, even some weld spatter). It finally bit the dust, explaining the recent purchase. I know there are newer models available and they look great but the SKX007 has served me well and I will stick with it. With the purchase of the new watch, I was brave enough to dig into the old one and repair it. So now I have two.”
