Delivery and ordering was great. The watch itself is slightly misaligned in terms of the seconds hand which is annoying.

Great but not perfect

First, kudos to Marc and his team. I've purchased three four watches from LIWC and all arrive promptly in pristine condition. If you have a question, you'll likely get a same-day response. Excellent. LIWC will be one of my go-to, first options for future watch purchases. Now to this fantastic watch. This one hits all the marks for me. I love the analog dominated design, but I occasionally want a stop watch, and rarely an alarm. Adding true dive capabilities is just icing on the cake. The watch is large but is light and wears well. I'm not a fan of the polished lugs for a "tool watch" but what the heck. My one beef with this watch is the power savings mode. The sleep mode is invoked after several days of low (no) light and makes perfect sense. The POWER SAVING mode is invoked after a few hours of no light (as in when people sleep). In power saving mode the analog hands temporarily freeze to......conserve power. If you want to check time in the middle of the night, don't expect your analog hands to be accurate. Why have (nice) lume on the analog hands if the watch routinely goes into power saving mode at night? To wake the watch up you have to activate a pusher or pull out the crown. Both require the "lock down" features for pusher/crown to be unlocked. Who leaves their water resistance watch in such a vulnerable state? But you'd have to if you expect accurate analog hand positions at night. The sleep function makes perfect sense. The power savings mode of this watch does not and is honestly just a really stupid design flaw. That and a 7 year projected life span for the LCD digital display are the only knocks I have for this otherwise excellent watch (i own several). Very nice and highly functional watch with one terrible design flaw, from a company with excellent prices and customer service. Not a whole lot more you could ask for.

Seiko Arnie

From the beginning my life has been pretty mundane, wake up go to work rinse and repeat. Yes there would be the weekend where I could try to enjoy myself but me not being a very interesting person there wasn't really anything to do. That all changed once I purchased the Seiko Arnie. I now start each day gearing up with the most sophisticated military hardware to track down and kill the men who kidnapped my daughter. This may sound a little concerning to most especially cause before this purchase I never even had a girlfriend let alone a daughter. Now I could never be happier waking up each day willing to take on the world and new want to be bad guy. On a side note it also has helped me out with the ladies and it's safe to say I'll be busy saving countless daughters from a old friend that I use to work with. The watch has performed as expected able to put up with water, mud, and the occasional blood smear. I love how if I'm sneaking up to a war lords strong hold at night the watch will automatically power down to save power. This also adds to the silence factor but if I need a quick look I can hit the light button and easily read the time so I know when that distracting explosion will go off so I can make my assault on the compound. Thanks Island Watch for giving my life purpose again.

The Watch I'm Gonna Wear When I "Get To The Choppa!"

I hesitated for some while on this watch, mainly due to the cost, but I am a big Schwarzenegger fan & eventually couldn't resist, so finally pulled the trigger. So glad I did! Awesome watch. It did not come with a manual, but figuring out how to use this timepiece is super easy. It has excellent wrist presence & is not as large or heavy as one might think. Actually, one of the more comfortable watches I've worn. Not a close copy of the original "Arnie", but it captures the spirit for sure. It reminds me more of the Citizen Aqualand C0023 hybrid Diver from the 80's. Seiko was smart making this one solar. Lume is great & dial is readable at a glance. This isn't a watch for a girly-man, but if you appreciate Cousin Arnold & his iconic action movies & fun, rugged timepieces, you owe it to yourself to get this watch.

Out of the Park

Another great watch from Long Island Watches. I've purchased a number of watches from Marc with my favorites being the Islander line. Seiko really knocked this one out of the park, Nice size with digital/analog combination on a very comfortable silicone strap. It will be one of my go to watches. Marc's customer service is also second to none. I'll be back for more.

Beautiful watch with great customer service

I have been looking to purchase this watch since it was first released and finally decided to buy it when I found it on sale with Island Watch. I ended up purchasing through Island watch because I know they are an authorized dealer, rather than possibly getting a grey market watch from amazon. This is definitely my favorite watch in my collection.

Excellent Customer Service / Love the new "Arnie"

First, Island is a great source for watches. My brother and Dad bought several from the site and recommended them to me. The staff is knowledgeable and responsive. Spend a few extra and get it through a creditable source for the piece of mind you're getting the real thing. I highly recommend the Seiko reissue "Arnie" diver to anyone looking for a good diver, Seiko fans or anyone who thinks Arnold is an American treasure. Some reviews claim that it is a massive watch. Nah. The case is not much bigger than other Seiko divers. The main reason it sounds big is the crown on the right side and pushers on the left, adding a few extra mm. They don't get in the way when wearing it. IMO the turtle feels like a bigger watch. Rubber strap is comfortable and flexible unlike other stiff diver bands. It has a cool metal hardware that keeps it in place so it's not dangling. If you want to feel like a action hero at the grocery store or just want a cool watch, get the Arnie.

Awesome

This is an awesome watch. The only thing I can think to top it off would be a ceramic lumed bezel. It would be interesting to know if that could be modded by someone. The only other point I would mention is that the bezel action feels a little "mushier" than what I am used to, but not unreasonable for this price point. If I could swap a higher end bezel with crisper action, it would be an absolute perfect watch to me. Zero regrets for buying it, though. Lots of fun!


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.
