"Love my new Islander (ISL-182) Pilot watch with full lume! Like many others I heard about this brand and store thru Youtube (The Urban Gentry / TGV and Mark). I ordered and paid for one of these being curious about what the Super-LumiNova looked like in real life. I have a Timex Expedition Scout that started my journey into learning more about (and buying) watches and always liked the Indiglo feature. This Aviator Watch w/ full lume is like having Indiglo on all the time at night... truly spectacular. Keeps glowing for hours (it's usually still glowing the next morning), and a quick recharge w/ a flashlight makes it super bright (helpful when you want to show off the lume to a friend). Really impressed. This watch has great features: sapphire crystal, full lume, Seiko automatic movement, nice case and leather strap, great value for the price. You know it's good when you want to buy more to gift them to all your friends!
This is my first Islander watch and "I get it" now. "Affordable watches I'll actually wear." Been wearing this every day since I received it. Have my eye on the Wave Dial watch (w/ full lume) (#ISL-62) next, was going to wait to the holidays to order but I may cave in and order earlier, that's how impressed I have been w/ the Aviator watch. I want lume on everything now :)
I live in the NY tri-state area, so shipping was fast. It took a couple of days to process the order (as per the FAQ). Once the package was shipped via USPS, I got the package delivered the next day! (again, I was close by, if you live on other side of the world it's obviously going to take longer to get delivered). Overall impressed, great value. Having fun w/ my watch, and at the end of the day that's all that matters. Thanks Mark!!"
"The best as always. Thanks a lot Marc"
"Ordered a Bulova moon-watch and shipping took less than 2 weeks to Norway!

"Excellent. Fast transaction. Fast delivery"
"Great color and fitment on the strap for the SKX009. Smaller wrists will need to cut excess material, 7" wrist had to cut off about 1" of material and size to smallest adjustments. Bezel insert for SKX013 is perfect factory replacement."
"Wonderful experience as always. One of if not the best place to buy an affordable watch or specific Seiko you’re looking for. Service is always great and have been buying from Mark and his business for years as a “Seiko enthusiast.” Highly recommend Long Island Watch."
"I got this as an everyday watch. A friend introduced me to Long Island Watch. He has four and loves them. I am glad he told me about them. This watch works perfectly for what I wanted. I am pleasantly surprised at how nice it really is."
"Been ordering from Marc for years now and he always provides an amazing experience. Him and his team does a great job providing amazing watches at an unbeatable price. Keep up the amazing work and will be buying again in the future!"
"The replacement oyster band for my Seiko Alpinist is beautiful and perfect. Marc’s responsiveness is incredible. I love this company. "
"Love the color and ripple pattern on the dial. Seems sturdy and looks good. Like the screws rather than pins to remove links in bracelet. Only had about a week but comfortable and keeping very good time so far"
"I ordered a watch as a gift for my brother. I realized it wouldn't make it to him in time before a vacation, I was able to reach out to Marc and change it to a rush shipping. My brother couldn't have been happier with the gift. Thank you."
"This dial is fantastic and gives the whole watch such an elegant look! Service from LIW is superb!"
"Everything as expected. Top score from me"
"Marc does a fantastic job - ordered a few mod parts for my Mako and it was at my door in two bus. days. Thank you! "
"Best watch company I’ve ever had the pleasure to deal with . The Manhassett watch, I ordered was top notch. The finishing on the watch is incredible. The wearing experience is perfect and is very well balanced ! "
