Our First Hi-Beat Diver, the Islander Northport
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- Our first hi-beat diver, the Islander Northport has arrived! Reminiscent of ripples on the Long Island Sound, you will be captivated by the Northport's amazing dial. Powered by the Miyota 9015 movement, the seconds hand ticks along at a very smooth 8 times per second.
Available in four colors; black, turquoise, white/seafoam green and purple/black, you will be hard pressed to find a better value in a dive watch!
Come see it at: longislandwatc...
*** Correction - at 9:30 I say the bracelet is full polish. It is full brush!
Thanks for watching.

These are great pieces. I really like the text under the logo. That blue is a knockout. Sea foam is great too! Islanders just get better and better!
thanks!
I agree! I hope this is the new look for all your dials.
I also really like the text under the logo. Looks great.
It was a nicer, cleaner look without the added text. Not as bad as some other brands that have a paragraph. Not for me...
They really do . This guy is a silent assassin and he is killing Seiko at his own game .
The ripple looks amazing, and the colors are beautiful. The best part is how you’ve begun signing the dial. It makes them less generic and shows pride in the brand. Well done.
Think this might be your best watch. Phenomenal 💯
thank you
The White to Sea foam Green is absolutely stunning.
Mark, I beg you to make a 36mm or 37mm version for my tiny wrists.
Ultimate summer watch.
Noted, thank you.
Yes please make a 36 or 37mm. These are stunning though!
+1
Agreed
@@islandwatch Oh yes, a 36-37mm diver would be great! Anyways Marc, from a technical perspective: what movements are available for 36/37mm watches? Do the NH‘s, Miyota 9000s or even a PT5000 fit into a 36/37mm case?
Thanks!
I like the logo...all of these look amazing. That sea-foam green is really cool. Marc, Ryan, well done.
Many thanks.
I agree, Kyle. I really like the logo. If Marc becomes convinced to use only the text on certain models, he could shift the logo into the place of the 12 index. For me, the Islander should not be without its iconic logo.
Islander has come a long way! (They were always very nice) but this is on another level. The printed brand under the logo is a great addition.
Gotta give Nassau County some love! Oceanside! Freeport! Oyster Bay!
will do!
Marc, the Northport on your wrist totally outshines the Rolex on your other wrist. Ryan knocked these watches out of the park! Keep him stocked with the large box of crayola's that has all the colors for dial and bezel designing! 😉😄🐶🐕
Totally agree!
I cannot even tell you how happy i am to be seeing colorful and fun divers FINALLY. Thank you so much. I will pick one up after my black bay.
The only downside to these new releases is that I keep spending money. Seriously though, all the new Islanders are amazing. Once the grey Bayport is back in stock I'll have one of each. Keep it up Marc!
thanks!
@@islandwatch love what you guys are doing!
Tell me about it. I got 2 of his and just ordered the purple one here........ stop it now Marc lol 😆
The purple and black is absolutely stunning. It just makes me think of the deepest, darkest depths.
You’re killing my out of reach grail budget. So, I thank you. The color combinations have me stepping out of the conventional color comfort zone.
I’ve had some non watch people actually ask about my Islanders.
Just got the Seafoam. Fits my 6.25 girl wrist perfectly. The white pops. Great value. I love it
My wife's favorite color is the purple that is on the purple to black dial. I had no intentions of buying one of these as I just purchased a different Islander. But of course the wife saw it and so "oh wow that's really pretty." So now I have to get it... yes that is how I justify my bad habits
You are forgiven!
Excellent in every way. If I did not have too many watches in my collection, I would grab one or two.
Do it! :)
Seafoam is very Zodiac-esque! Great collection
Sure is!
From the dials, to the case-backs, to the clasps, Islander has really been stepping up its game the last few years.
Gorgeous. I like the "ISLANDER" text at the top.
You guy's have outdone yourselves, that deep purple might just be the perfect dive watch for me.
Good looker!
This is IT! On my list- Purple to black fade has pushed a Glycine "Moonphase" right out of the running.
Nice!
OMG, I love that white to sea foam green color scheme. What a great summer watch.
Beautiful colors
Love the logo with text on the dial. Own it!
The swimming pool is gorgeous! I wouldn't call the black 'basic', I'd call it 'classic!
Thanks!
The Islander text and logo together look great. Kinda Omega looking with the circle above text.
Mark - You knocked this one out of the park! This is one of the best dials I've seen, Period... Especially on a diver. The blue is the most dramatic, with the purple, subtle and beautifully done! You're giving the Oris Aquis dial variants a run for the money as they say.
Keep up the great designs and matching movements! Any thoughts on a 36k movement and or some level of certification like COSC?
That would be great but COSC certification and a 5hz movement might be a bit unrealistic because Marc has to make a profit, here. I imagine the certification would likely make it too cost prohibitive to produce such a watch. Could he somehow incorporate a 5hz movement and tight regulation, though? Yours is a very good question concerning the movement and it would be great to see.
I really like the Islander text under the logo. Ads some very nice balance to the top of the dial.
Looks great. I just had to order before it sells out. Now I need a white silicone band to complete that seafoam look. Great job Marc and Ryan!
Which one do you have in mind?
I got the ISL-155 before it sold out in 6 hours. 😳
@@willjr2520 good for you. I missed out. Which white bands ru looking at/considering?
@@delacruzmtnvw I ended up putting a light khaki leather sport strap and it is perfect!
Seafoam wave looks fantastic!
thank you, Keith
I'm impressed with some of the watches you are releasing, since you stopped improving the SKX. Some are really nice and refined. The first one that caught my eye was the Day-T. Keep growing your brand and you'll be worldwide known. Well done folks!
Thanks, will do!
The Northport will be a hit! I especially like the brushed finish (less flashy), crown at 3, date at 6, negative end links, thinner case, and milled clasp. 👍
The Turquoise Northport is one of the most stunning watches I've ever seen. I'm going to place an order for one to add to my collection of close to 30 watches. I have a feeling that I will be wearing it a lot.
Awesome, thanks!
That seafoam is unreal for the price. The colors and execution is insane!!
Wow. Just wow.
thanks!
I think these are awesome watches, I love the 62MAS style hands and indices, but those dials are absolutely the star of the show! I've placed an order for the purple and black one. Love your work Marc and Ryan!
Ooooo, that's nice!
Thanks so much.
These designs are so well executed. You are definitely holding a candle to the imaginative crafters of Grand Seiko.
Marc is truly a hero to the affordable watch community
Thank you!
Those are fly!
They are!
First thing I did this morning was check the website and bought the Seafoam! This video wasn't even out yet. Very excited!
Nice, thanks!!!!
@@islandwatch is the bezel on the Seafoam lumed on the markers or the backdrop? Asking because the markers look blacked out! Just wondering!
I hope these are not limited. That white to sea foam 🌊 is a must have. Just saving up to get my next watch. This watch is gonna be my first islander and I can't wait to add to my collection. Phenomenal dial and colours 😍 ✨️ ❤️ 👌🏾
Thanks so much! Not limited (yet)
Nice looking watch
Stunning time pieces. The quality and design of your watches are nonpareil! Love the lower profile, movement choice, and date position. I own two LIWs this is going to be my third!
The seafoam is my favourite, I can see me wearing this on a scorching hot summer day by the beach, summer vibes aplenty.
For sure.
I’ve bought a Seiko from you recently - love it but these watches (your watches) are just stunning - one of these will be my next watch for sure!!!
The purple to black dial is right up my alley. Love it
Wow. Great size, movement and colours. The sea foam green/white one is very tempting.
Thanks!
Absolute class. Love the change to rectangular hands and flat sapphire. Big big ups. That white to sea foam piece is ridiculously well done.
Such good work.
Thank you very much!
I REALLY don't need yet another Islander, but that purple might push me over the edge. Fantastic stuff here, Marc!
Awesome pieces. The brand nailed so much things offering from great look and functionality to great pricing / specs watches, it is no surprise it grew and became so popular among the people. Wonder where the brand will be in 10 years from now, but have no doubts that it will follow the status it gains today. 👍
The purple one is my fav for sure. Can't wait to see a GMT release from you guys. Cheers.
*This case, dial & hand design in a GMT with a 24 hour bezel? It would be KILLER.*
thank you
Go Ryan Go Marc you guys are knocking it out of the park, Love this model, I have "The Swimming Pool" on the way. Upgraded clasp, Hi-Beat movement, textured dial, 6 o'clock date all made this Islander irresistable to me. I particularly like that Marc (or Ryan) DIDN'T color match the date wheel to the dial on this model. I think the dial color matched date wheel works best when you have the date window offset like at 3:30 or 4:30, but when the date wheel is mirroring an hour marker like at 3 o'clock (or 6 o'clock in this case) it's more pleasing to my OCD if the date wheel matches the marker's color and not the dial color, it keeps the watch more symetrical I feel. Can't wait for it to arrive.👍🏽
Looking good! I'll most likely pick up a purple one.
Thanks!
Feature packed and gorgeous 😍 So tempting!
thanks!
*The hits just keep on comin’….. makes me reluctant to buy, because soon enough something even better will show up. Well well done. The logo and brand name text look good.*
Thank you
This watch needs a signed rotor with a sapphire caseback for the icing on the cake!!!!
I really like the blue one.
Me too; wearing it still!
The white/seafoam is absolutely brilliant. These just keep getting better and better.
I just got my Purple Islander. Really loving it. Not the lightest of watches yet feels totally comfortable on my wrist. In fact you don't feel it.
It looks amazing....I can't stop looking at it.... I like the "islander" wording...adds a touch of class for me.
My only moan, which is "nothing" to do with Mark or Ryan.... as I live in the UK, every Islander watch I buy cost me another $90(£73) in tax 😑 I have 3 Islander's so do the math.... not your fault guys and to be fair, your watches are worth the additional cost..... thank you guys 😊
This is fantastic.
Thanks.
Looking good. Nice work gents!
Thanks.
That ISL-155 sea foam is straight 🔥🔥🔥. I’ll be picking one up when back in stock. Throw a white fitted rubber strap. Wooooooo!
Dare I say...the best Islanders yet! Well done. The dials are amazing.
Very, very cool watches - love the test below the logo 👍 think this will be my first Islander!
Great, thanks!
Gorgeous!!! Purple is my favorite color, and the blue dial is also very pretty, but I’m gonna go with the white-to-seafoam. That one’s the sickest!
Blue for me!
Wow! These are amazing - just purchased the purple one :)
Awesome, thank you!
Bringing excellent watches to the common man and woman. Your business model is incredibly appreciated, Marc.
Congratulations! The blue is stunning!
Thank you
My favorite town that I spent many happy hours in.. Greenport.. and Orient Point.. I know you don't have many Northport's left.. I remember the Northport ferry to CT.. very best to you and your team!
Frank in Colorado
Whoa Marc yes💯💯💯💯💯 In love Marc! Those dials are amazing and date at 6 is dope! You continue to impress me more and more!
thanks Steve!!!
I have several islanders and have recommended them a few times.
Thank you for that.
Very, very cool watches - love the text below the logo 👍 think this will be my first Islander!
Good choice!
Stop putting out such great watches, I already just bought one from you recently. That blue dial with the ripple is beautiful.
Glad you like them!
I love the "swimming pool" blue dial! It's gorgeous 😍
Your on to something here
I do think so.
They are stunning. Complete winner 🏆
I may need to swap out my ISL-56 Ice Monster for the two-tone turquoise as my new Summer watch !!
Very nice!
Mark you and your team has done it again! Great Dial. Love the way it disappears. BLACK.
Your brand just keeps getting better. I’ve been watching this channel before they were a thing. You’re doing a fantastic job.
Wow, Marc thanks for fostering innovation. Ryan, great job. I have 2 watches already in transit to me then, this video. My Wife will be pissed, but it looks like I'm buying another new watch!
These are awesome! I've always wanted to buy an Islander watch to show my support. That turquoise ripple dial is beautiful. Clicking "Checkout"..... NOW
I’d love to see a slightly smaller, slightly thinner version of the northport seafoam. It’s gorgeous and would make a great wear-anywhere type watch that way. Plus no one else (or very few others) offer a slimmer diver in this price range so it would really fill that void in the market. Keep up the great designs! This is to be one of the most beautiful islanders yet
Marc, that purple dial is stunning!
Thanks!
Love these!
Thanks. So do we!
The sands of time. Beautiful
The white/green is Sick..... Perfect Summer Watch
It's back in stock. Just ordered one
A new wood grain backdrop. Good lighting. I watch every video. I do appreciate the use of gloves where some hands just do not need to be seen in macro ha. These are beauties. A watch for a beach daydream. I do like the date at 6 o'clock. Thank you for the offerings.
Great new line Marc. Seafoam is my favorite.
Thank you
The Seafoam and White is 🔥! Love the Islander print below the logo. It looks like it belongs. Without the print the logo looks odd. 👌
White/seafoam gives off zodiac super sea wolf vibes. Love it
The purple is 👍
Yes!
These look great! Nice job on the flat crystal and fully brushed bracelets too. I could see these being successful enough to have multiple sizes; that white-sea foam would look great tailored to a smaller woman's wrist for example.
I'm about to take off on a month long motorcycle trip, so unfortunately no new watch in my budget. Maybe there'll be another run next year...I'd love to have the purple-black in a 38mm with a less beefy clasp. Excellent job Mark & team.
Thank you so much!
That green version is your best Islander to date imo. Not really a micro brand person and never been tempted to pick any previous Islander models up but this one has got me really tempted.
Beautiful, I was hoping for the name under the logo, as well as the movement type down the bottom. Well done Mark, I love the simple yet eye catching black dial.
Thanks much!
These are great. I love the date at 6, love the J style bracelet, the sapphire insert. Magic. I suppose a titanium case would up the price considerably. For me, that would make the seafoam green a perfect watch. Well done Ryan and Mark.
They look amazing, think the green one's the best looking one from the bunch.
Putting Islander under the logo is just perfection
Boom 💥 definitely 🔥 i gotta review it.
:)
Great looking watches Mark. Great value proposition! Ryan is killing it with these dials!
Thanks!
Dude! That turquoise dial is an absolute knock out!! It would look awesome on the “J” style bracelet, or an engineer?! OMG! I will say I’d prefer the triangle over the dot on the bezel.
thanks for watching.
