“I've only had this for 2 weeks, but so far I love it. This time I wanted something with much less frequent sending it away for battery changes and pressure testing (yes, my previous were also quartz). The black ion case finish is not jet black; it is a little lighter shade, with a hint of brown. Looks great with black or khaki (nylon) straps. The included rubber strap seems excellent, including a metal black ion treated keeper loop. I just prefer nylon for everyday wear due to vapor permeability and the rapid no-tool changeability. Marc from Long Island Watch was very responsive in replying to my email questions to help me narrow my choices. I would definitely not hesitate to do business with him again -- responsive, knowledgeable, passionate about watches, and certain to be selling only genuine products.”
“When I wanted to get a particular Seiko watch, I wanted to be sure I was getting the genuine article from a retailer I could trust. I chose Island Watch because of Marc Frankel's "Watch and Learn" videos on You Tube. Here's a guy that loves watches, knows watches, and takes the time and effort to effectively share that knowledge with others. This is NOT a guy that would sell a knock-off Seiko. To paraphrase Marc himself, first you buy the seller, then you buy the product. By the way, this Seiko is a beauty, I've got it on a black-and-grey "Bond" Zulu band. Very happy with the watch, and thank-you Marc for the great educational videos.”
“Excellent watch meeting all my expectations. I was very pleased with the information and service I received from IslandWatch. Very good price for a legitimate product from a factory authorized dealer.”
“First of all, thank you Marc for answering my unending queries about which watch to buy, and your recommendation has been spot on! Despite all horror stories associated with different reviews elsewhere, bezel sits right on the dot, the strap on the SNE441 is brilliant. And the lume, my personal must have requirement, is more the met by the legend seiko Lume. Again, thanks Marc, Long Island Watches, you have some more purchases coming your way from a very satisfied user.
Ps... I wish I knew how could upload some reference pics for other potential buyers help, but have tagged them on the long island watches instagram feed.”
“Watch is just stunning, very nicely finished by Seiko, theyve improved the rubber straps these days too, very soft and supple.
Black metalwork on the buckle and metal keeper to watch the watch, nice touch”
