Fast and easy as a New York resident I love the idea of buying a locally made watch

Better in person than pictures, wears great even on a smaller wrist. Love the lack of branding on the dial.

Great

Like other reviews, it looks even better than the pictures. It was running when it arrived probably due to movement during shipping. I’ve had it almost a week now and so far it has been accurate within 4-5 seconds a day. Added benefit is the Tomcat on the back. I was in a Tomcat squadron in the 80’s.

East peasy. No issues, so no customer service contact so far. Items arrived a few days before projected date when ordered.

I've had this watch for 4 days. As someone else mentioned, the dial is much darker than the pictures indicate. It is black in indirect light and dark blue in direct light. Mine is losing about 6 seconds per day which is very reasonable. The lume is good and the quality of the case is good. I've already ordered a NATO strap because I do not like the OEM strap at all. It is very thick which makes it difficult to work with. I was able to make it more pliable by bending and pinching it. My main complaint is the buckle as the sides of it stick out even further than the thickness of the strap. It leaves marks on my wrist and is uncomfortable. I have no complaints about the watch movement or the case. The screwdown crown is very easy to work with and the feedback from winding the movement is very smooth.

Everything works perfect as usual with Long Island Watches!!

The quality is really exceptional for a watch at the price point. This is going to be a Christmas present for my autistic nephew. I'm hoping the large easy to read dial will help him learn to tell time.

The easy to navigate website makes ordering a breeze.

The features on this watch are crazy good for price. Automatic Seiko movement and a sapphire crystal? Sold! Loving it so far, replaced the strap with one a little more to my liking.

Quick and easy, nicely designed website

I really like this watch. The dark blue dial, lumens, and it is keeping very good time thus far. I would have rated it 5 stars, but the leather band is thick and stiff. I ordered a blue leather band to replace it. Hoping it comes today!
Michael K - 08/01/2022
A nice gift to my dad.
GMach - 08/01/2022
Great watch! Respected movement, unbranded and well-done B-type dial, and a sapphire AR crystal all at a really nice price-point. Screw-down crown and a little extra water resistance is a nice bonus. Overall, really sharp and a lot for the money. Will probably swap the strap fairly soon; the one it comes with is a bit shiny, though still nice and robust.

It is always a pleasure dealing with LIW. Pricing is very good and shipping is quick. Plus, it's one of the few places left on earth - it seems - where the volume and variety of selections is fairly large (at least for watches at my price-point), but the service is still responsive and personal.

Amazing value. Wearable case diameter, classy everyday watch.

Bought this as a gift for my older brother. He wanted to be a pilot when we were kids, and the Tomcat was his favorite plane. The engraving is a nice touch. I felt this style watch would fit his collection. He loved it!

First buy long time admirer of long island watch looking forward to continue as a customer. mesmerized by the islander series.

If I weren't paying for university I'd have more Islander watches. I'd love an Islander with a Hi-beat Miyota after seeing how good my first Islander has been. There is some positional variation in timekeeping accuracy so I rest is crown up at night when I take the watch off, and the watch is still with 15 secs after about two weeks. The features and quality of Islander watches are superior to every other brand I can find in the same price range. I really appreciate the opportunity to purchase a watch from a smaller business and know more of my money is staying local. It also means better customer service - though I haven't had any need to reach out to CS I've heard great things. That still means something to me. I really like the Ameriquartz watches Islander are producing and the idea/ethic behind it too. I like the brand, I like my watch, and if I were to get some extra scratch together I'd love another Islander. Thanks Team :)

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
