“originally i purchased two of these with the intention of using one for work (medical field) and the other for personal. they were my first automatic watches and turned into gateways. within weeks i had a growing collection. the one i purchased for work, functions flawlessly. simple, very accurate, high-visibility seconds hand. decent, but small lume. love the clear caseback. looks amazing on a nato strap. the supplied factory strap is perfectly decent...but between the dial and straps was too much green for my taste. the other watch i bought for personal use, sadly turned out to be a lemon and is being returned. it lost 2-3 minutes every day and had weird inconsistent issues that were hard to explain. thankfully marc at long island watches was amazing. he really went above and beyond to make it right.”
“This was my first Automatic watch and I was in a toss up between the Orient Defender and this Seiko SNZG. Couldn't be more happy with my purchase and my decision to go the Island Watch. The videos have been so helpful in my understanding of watches generally and I felt like I was able to make an informed decision that was right for me. My watch is way more accurate than I expected (around -5 seconds a day) and I just love wearing it.”
“The watch I purchased was well made and sturdy. Self winding and accurate was what I was looking for in a watch to take with me into the wild. This watch was the right fit for that.”
