Description
Islander Automatic Dive Watch with Yellow Dial and Luminous Ceramic Bezel Insert #ISL-08
The popular Island ISL-08 with vibrant yellow dial is back! You will immediately notice that is has a very familiar 43mm case with an offset screw-down crown at 4:00. Thickness is 14mm and tip to tip it is a very wearable 46mm (i.e. looks big, but doesn't wear big on your wrist). Note that the lug ends are drilled for easier bracelet to strap changes. The case back has an embossed image of a lighthouse, as well as the Islander logo.
Inside the case is an NH35, 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 NH35 also has a date wheel viewed at 6:00 on the dial.
The yellow dial has Super-LumiNova on the hands and hour makers. The Islander name and logo are done in applied black metallic. The 120-click uni-directional bezel has a scratch-resistant black (diver marked) ceramic insert that is also treated with Super-LumiNova for a maximum glow-in-the-dark experience when lights go out. It is quite bright and long lasting.
The 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 slight bluish hue at some viewing angles.
And, lastly you get a beefy bracelet with solid links, solid end links and a dual push-button flip lock deployant clasp with three position micro-adjustment. For sizing the bracelet, you will find screws are used for removing bracelet links instead of pins.
NOTE: The Islander dive and dual-time watch is compatible with aftermarket parts available at Island Watch (and elsewhere) for the SKX007 models, such as crystals, bezels, inserts, chapter rings, dials, hands, bracelets, etc.
