Islander 38mm Automatic Dive Watch with Solid-Link Bracelet, AR Sapphire Crystal, and Luminous Ceramic Bezel Insert #ISL-06

Islander 38mm Automatic Dive Watch with Solid-Link Bracelet, AR Sapphire Crystal, and Luminous Ceramic Bezel Insert #ISL-06

Island Watch would like to introduce you to the new Islander dive watch. You will immediately notice that is has a very familiar 38mm case with an offset screw-down crown at 4:00. Thickness is 13mm and tip to tip it is a very wearable 44.5mm. Note that the lug ends are drilled for easier bracelet to strap changes. The case back has a rendering of Long Island on it along with the Islander name, Island Watch and 200 meter water resistance.

Inside the case is an NH36, 24-jewel automatic movement with 21,600 vibrations per hour. This self-winding movement supports hand winding and hacks (seconds hand stops when you pull out the crown). Power reserve is about 41 hours fully wound. The NH36 also has both a day and date wheel viewed at 3:00 on the dial.

The dark blue dial has SuperLuminova on the hands and hour makers and the Island Watch logo is luminous under 12:00. The 120-click uni-directional (pepsi-style) bezel has a scratch-resistant (
diver marked) ceramic insert that is also treated with SuperLuminova for a maximum glow-in-the-dark experience when lights go out. It's bright and long lasting.

The dark blue dial has enhanced visibility due to the use of an anti-reflective flat sapphire crystal that also guards against scratches. The anti-reflective coating is on the underside of the sapphire and it imparts a bluish hue at some viewing angles.

Upgraded: We have enhanced the bracelet with solid links, solid end links and a dual push-button milled scissor deployant clasp with three position micro-adjustment. Screws are now used (instead of pins) for sizing the bracelet. Also, The crown is now signed with the Island Watch logo.

NOTE: The Islander dive and dual-time watch is compatible with aftermarket parts available at Island Watch (and elsewhere) for the SKX013 models, such as crystals, bezels, inserts, chapter rings, dials, hands, bracelets, etc.

    Overall very nice watch

    Posted by Sean Kunkle on Jan 11th 2020

    Very nice watch for the price given the feature set. The colors really pop.The lume is very good and the sapphire crystal and ceramic bezel and solid end links are certainly nice features. The downers that keep this from 5 star review.The bezel isn't the best.Mine happens to be fairly difficult to turn and doesn't seem to have very distinctive clicks either.I kinda assume mine is not what it should be.I own two other watches with dive bezels and this one feels the worst to manipulate in terms of both effort and feel. Last gripe the bracelet.The pins are so tight in my example I bent 3 tips on my albeit cheapish pin removal tool trying to size it. I have sized several watches previously with the same tool set and never had any such problems.Even with the pins knocked 2/3rds of the way out I had to grab a pair of pliers and grab the end and really tug to completely pull them out.They are super super tight.And yes I was following the arrows and going the proper direction.

    Love the small size and high quality.

    I got this watch cause it has so much for a great price. Sapphire crystal, Seiko hacking and hand winding day date movement, ceramic Bessel. Great lume and nice bracelet. That’s a lot for $299. I hope they do a field watch next! This is my fifth watch from Long Island Watch we’re pleased with the dealer. Highly recommended.

    Am extremely happy with my purchase. Shipping was fast. The metal bracelet is very comfortable and very easy to size. So far after a week on the wrist, being worn night and day, the watch is running -3 seconds a day. Would buy Marc's Islander watch over a seiko anyday.

    NOT 100 % HAPPY

    Posted by MICHAEL MERRICK on Dec 27th 2019

    VERY HAPPY WITH THE WATCH OVERALL FOR THE PRICE BUT FOR: 1. POOR QUALITY CONTROL - THE BEZEL WAS VERY HARD TO TURN AND I'M ONLY NOW MANAGING TO TURN THE BEZEL WITHOUT USING A CLOTH TO HOLD IT IN. 2. DISAPPOINTED WITH THE VERY THIN STEEL USED ON THE CLASP OF THE BRACELET. 3. DISAPPOINTED THERE WAS NO ISLANDER LOGO ON THE CROWN.

    islander 38mm dive watch

    Posted by tom c. on Dec 21st 2019

    love the watch. the bezel(Pepsi) looks smart on the piece. the watch is well made. I did have trouble trying to remove links from the bracelet. the pin holes are just so small and almost impossible to work with. I put an aftermarket band on it. I am waiting for a strap code bracelet to come in. I received the watch in a timely fashion. I would easily recommend this watch.

    Very happy with my Purchase

    Posted by Nathan Webster on Dec 11th 2019

    The watch looks amazing in person and offers great value for what you get. My only gripe with the watch is the bracelet. The friction pins make changing the band such a pain. I hope that if, or when, Mark decides to introduce a version with screws that he also sells that bracelet separately on the store because I would definitely pick one of those up. If he does sell the bracelet on the website it would also be cool if he offered one with a solid clasp rather than stamped. Overall a great product!
