“I have worked with Island Watch on several occasions and have always had a great experience. Even during these trying times for everyone the shipping times and client service has been great!”
“I'd been equivocating on whether or not to make the purchase for a while - do I need another watch? Of course, when my moment of weakness arrived, it was out of stock. So I mashed on the Notify Me button.
A couple weeks later the watch was back in stock and still selling at the very attractive Island Watch price (a good discount off MSRP).
The transaction was easy, the shipping was quick, and the watch arrived in pristine condition.
Another great watch purchase from Island Watch!
And of course, I'm already asking myself if I need another watch...”
“Ordered this watch late on a Friday, had it in (on?) hand on the following Tuesday.
I wanted something that:
1. is massive because apparently I can't see all that well
2. has lume that lasts past midnight (sorry Lumibrite and Superluminova, you suck at this IMO)
3. will be easy to service (common movement)
Is tritium as bright as fresh paint? No. But it glows the same ALL night. No more holding watches 2" from my eye to try and divine the time! I like watching the tube on the second hand go around too...
Size: it's Big, but not obscene on my 7.75" wrist.
The strap is on the short side - I use hole #6 out of 8 - if you have more than a 7.5" wrist, you'll want the bracelet or maybe a NATO.
Downsides? IDK. Reviews of this watch say the edge of the day marking is close to being "under" the edge of the day window. Not something I notice/care about but if you worry about details like this, it's there.
Great buy.
Super happy I went with LIW again for this purchase.”
“I received the watch in a timely manner and it is everything that was promised. This watch is heavy and awesome. The only reason I did not list it as excellent is this; it is not as bright/luminescent as advertised and for the price, the watch should have come with a metal band. As for the watch, I have no immediate complaints. Solid.”
“Rugged looks, great performing watch and super bright lume. Great watch for traveling. Fantastic service from Marc and the team. Highly recommend Long Island Watch”
“When buying a high end watch like this JDD SAR the only thing that can ruin it is a bad dealer. Island Watch however Has the best Customer Service for an online sales store I have found! The watch is amazing and the support from Island Watch is as well. Get your concerns and questions answered to find the perfect watch for you. I wear this Marathon JDD everyday and love it more and more. Awesome Automatic to add to my rotation just that I can't seem to want to take it off. My Seikos are getting jealous LOL!”
“Wow!!! I'm truly happy with my decision to buy this watch. I love everything about except one thing. the rubber band is a little small, I'm on the second to last hole and the stays has nothing to keep them in place. its like they are banking on you buying the stainless steel bracelet. I will have to do some research and see if the make them longer. Other then that this thing freaking as advertised a beast of a watch.”
