Islander Black Dial Automatic Dive Watch with AR Double Dome Sapphire Crystal, and 120-click Bezel #ISL-57

Islander Black Dial Automatic Dive Watch with AR Double Dome Sapphire Crystal, and 120-click Bezel #ISL-57

The Islander ISL-57 has the familiar look of an iconic dive watch which has been discontinued. The Islander version mimics the the original but, it has an all solid link bracelet that uses screws for sizing (instead of the very fussy pin and collar system). The upgraded bracelet also features a more robust milled deployant clasp with a dual-push button release. Another Islander upgrade is a double-dome sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective (inside only) coating that provides scratch protection and a clearer view of the dial and time.

The movement is a 24-jewel NH36 automatic that offers you the same reliable performance as later editions of this iconic dive watch. The deep black dial features white hands and hour markers coated with SuperLuminova for reading the time in the dark. The day and date window is in the familiar 3:00 position.

The lugs are drilled for bracelet to dive strap changes. Lug width is 20mm. The case size is 42mm diameter by 13mm thick. 47mm tip to tip. Finish is brushed and polished. The crown and caseback are screw-in and the uni-directional rotating (slightly concave) bezel is a 120-click with a luminous PIP. Water resistance is 200 meters.

    Islander Black Monster

    Thank you Mark for making this watch. I wore the original on a rubber strap every day of my 3 plus years total spent in Northern Iraq. Your version is a rock solid homage and is reminding me of those days each time I look at it. For anyone wondering if the Islanders are too good to be true, my opinion is they are not. The quality of this watch is fully equal to my modern Turtle. With the upgraded specs (I love this domed sapphire crystal) and lower price they are easy to recommend. This won’t be my last Islander.

    Mark, stop making watches I have wanted for years. You are killing my budget. This is another example of how good a watch can be. Easy bracelet adjustment, domed sapphire crystal, hackable, hand wind movement. This is what a dive tool watch should be. Great job.
