    So much I like about this one! That vertical day date integration is killer, and I love that you went with the 12 hour bezel. Great use of colors too. And I'm kind of amazed that you were able to get the price that low with sapphire, ceramic and a bracelet. Really nailed it this time!

    Marc, this is a masterpiece. You continue to knock it out of the park. 39mm the perfect size for me, beautiful colors, great lume and a vertical day/date window. How can you go wrong with this? Definitely my next pickup.

  • @christianaviles2199
    @christianaviles2199 8 месяцев назад +1

    Great job on these. I do have to say the black and blue look very similar at least on camera. Although the green also looks much lighter on camera than it does in photos on the website. But I do like the overall design of these. I feel it could work with all kinds of complimentary colors, should you decide to expand the line. Great value too.

  • @iansclone

    Man, you weren't exaggerating about balance! Superb work, the white/blue sings to me particularly. Question for anyone/everyone: perhaps not traditionally, but would you consider a 200m WR watch a diver that sports a non-timing bezel? Not trying to be snarky, genuinely interested in your thoughts.

    Love your work, Marc. It's really inspiring. Have you thought about ditching the clock icon? It seems out of context if "Islander" is the brand. I am not a graphic designer but it clashes visually to me. I could see something nautical, given the word. Or nothing at all - just a suggestive font.
