“Beautiful timepiece... Great Value. Incredible price. If you're looking for an amazing watch with fantastic design and specs, I highly recommend this Seiko 5. Very well built and a treasure to behold”
“I was looking for an affordable but quality dress watch and the SNKL23J1 fit the bill! Beautiful watch, lightweight and comfortable. My second purchase from Island Watch, very happy.”
“Seiko is a brand long known for quality watches at affordable prices and this Seiko 5 is no exception. My first automatic, I've been wearing mine for nearly a week now and it's kept excellent time, around -7/s to +8/s a day.
The two-tone black tuxedo dial with silver hands, hour markers, and case are a visually striking, elegant combination that make the watch look much more expensive than the $139 price would suggest. The watch also feels incredibly solid as well without being too heavy on my wrist, so much so that I barely notice it. The clear exhibition case back is a neat feature too.
Seiko 5 owners often say that the bracelets are the weak point for these watches, but I can't complain about mine too much. It pairs well with the watch, it's the original bracelet, and I didn't need to resize it. Best of all, I love the "Seiko" and "5" logo as well as "Japan" stamped onto the clasp. You wouldn't get that with many aftermarket metal bracelets.
Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase. I would definitely buy from Long Island Watch again. Marc was extremely helpful in emails and responsive to my questions regarding my Seiko 5.”
