- We've missed alot of stuff! With the move and all, there's been so many new items to hit the store that I haven't been able to get to them.
Today, I'll be showing about a dozen new Phoibos models.
Check them out at: longislandwatc...
Subscribe to see more of us in your feed! Thank you for watching.
With your new lighting, it's making it a lot easier to see details on the dial...so appreciated. From Lefty to Lefty...signing out.
Phoibos gives insane value and fantastic looking dials. I have the Wavemaster and it gets lots of compliments. I like that Proteus with the lumed chapter ring. Marc your camera work and sound are both outstanding!
Great to "hear", LOL
It's funny that you sell other micro brands such as Phoibos, because your Own produced brand watch(Islander watches) are The Best watches from your website. I already have 3 of Islander watches and I love them So much! Especially the "Bayport" watch looks almost perfect for me. The Original design, beautiful Dial color, beautiful Index, nice Font, perfect dial Size, color matching Date wheel window, Ceramic bezel, Sapphire inside AR coating glass, beautiful Hands, 200M WR, NH35, all the Luminous, Solid Negative end links, nicely Tapered H-link metal band, mil Clasp, Signed Screw crown & Buckle, beautiful case Back, perfect Weight, Super affordable Price and so on... The only thing bugs me is the first H-link scratches the End-link's surface by itself. Anyway, It's almost piece of art. Good job Marc! Cheers~!
These are nice, but I'm more excited for your upcoming Islander quartz chronograph
Me too, LOL
Yep it’s one of the two on my must buy list the other is the Seiko SSK 001 GMT July can’t come quickly enough
The watches and lighting look good Marc. I'm excited about the Islander GMT once Seiko starts releasing the new GMT movement. Blue dial with a black bezel will look great.
Leftys should like the 8 o’clock crown. Very interesting designs. Thanks for sharing them Marc. Have a great day! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks, you too!
The black backdrop works well. Congratulations on the new space. On to bigger and better things. I am a proud owner of two Islanders. Thanks for the content.
Thank you. Great selection. Best wishers on your NEW DIGS!
Thank You for all of your videos that you did.
Welcome!
I’m really excited for the Seiko 5 GMT Series, hopefully you carry them. Also “alot” is two words Marc. Keep up the good work.
Yup, a ware!
A…LOT, Islander Quartz Chrono TOO,
Lights improvement. Well done!!
Looks good Mark and congrats on the new space, keep that content coming for us watch geeks please⌚🤓
I was just looking at their watches on your site. I love the Narwhal with the animal on the case back. Great looking watches.
I hope you'll be making a GMT assuming you'll be able to get the 4R34 movement.
Wow! I really dig these watches.
Glad you like them!
That is neat with the crown on the opposite side. I am a righty, and i wear my watch on the right hand. Someone told me that wearing a watch on the opposite hand along with the crown on opposite side is known as a golfers style. So crown is not interfering with your golf swing. (Yeah first world problems) Lol!!!
Big fan of the hands! Sandwich dial is clean and minimal.
Indeed, thank you
As the great Mel Brooks said- “merchandise, merchandise, merchandise!!”(Spaceballs😅). I want an Islander shirt☝🏻😉.
It is difficult for me to adjust to a left sided crown, yet I really like the white dialed one.
Love that Norwal. Very classy retro but modern at the same time. If my watch budget could afford right now I'd be all over it.
All the great people are left handed, but I'm so used to right handed crowns, I think it would be weird operating it with my left!
I think the full blue one is the standout.
Man the watch on your left hand Mark looks really cool nice coinage bezel looks like a samurai case and a top hat Crystal? That looks awesome what is it?
Looks like Mark has teleported outside of the known Universe.
Very nice set. Probably like the narwhal best
I'm a little surprised that I like all of the watches featured given their differences. Phoibos is definitely making a statement with those designs. The hands on the first one are certainly unique and I almost wish they had put numerals closer in so they could be framed by the circular hole in the hour hand. Timex did that with one of their military watches and I think it was effective.
4:28 The tortilla brown looks more like a cantaloupe orange.
Yeah, I can see that.
You better believe I paused the video to try to get a good look at that prototype watch!
What are your thoughts on what it could be? I’m thinking a speedmaster inspired watch.
Most Citizen diver automatics have 8 oclock crown. My favourite placement
It might just be me but the studio lights seem to reflect too much off the crystals making it more difficult to see the dials. Thankfully, the black contrasting background looks good and the content is always great 👍
The standout here is the full lume Captain America.
Yes! Good call on that
Narwhal looks great, for me it's most beautiful Phoibos watch, want V2 without date & longer minute hand though.
Thanks for watching.
@@islandwatch Thanks for review Mark
Hey Marc! Great Phoibos but I was wondering why can't we get a series of 36mm watches? That part of wrist size is missing your entrepreneurship and taste!
Coming soon!
@@islandwatchMarc thank you for your reply! Hey I am aware of the 38mm models but the Safari36 made me think of the potential of this niche in conjunction with your taste, possibilities and space within the islander range. Just give it an 100m ,at least, wr and a screw-in crown. Again all the best at the new place !!!!!!
Where did you get that algebra wall clock for your studio?
There available from ALI X just type in Math Wall Clock
Amazon
Love that Narwhal! Marc for context what is your wrist size? Cheers, keep up the great work 👍
6 3/4” as per his comment in the video.
You're quieter in the intro than usual, echo is an issue too, switch to you other vids & compare, then suddenly it was back to normal, thanks. That black background as you display the watches is nice but when you move from center (e.g.: @ 6:15) the camera auto focus shows the background in a less favorable light. Kill the auto focus? It's really cool looking when the background appears pitch black, almost a jewelry case presentation. How about some gray gloves with one/some of your new watch case back logos emblazoned on the back of the hand, almost all the way across it? A different logo for the left & right glove?
That's exciting because you rarely ever see a watch geared towards a lefthander like myself.
Indeed.
All these new Phoibos watches are outside the box cool, just like the last two Islander releases! Should I just mail you my wallet!? 🤣🐶🐕
It's a crack up when a lefty doesn't like a lefty 8 o'clock crown😁😁
The phoibos are attractive, the crown though an issue for me, 4pm crown is my taste. Sweet watches though. The 3pm dial blue samurai"ish" one is a contender.
Thanks!
So good of the state police to allow you to do your intro from your prison cell Marc 😂😂😂😂
So..you have never handled a Citizen NY0040 or its variations? You should!! The crown is at the same position. Knowing you are a Seiko and Orient lover, I would be surprised if you haven't tried the Citizen.
I've sold them, not really handled them!
That new Apollo looks great. I like that 8 o'clock crown b/c, as a righty, when I wear watches on my left wrist, the crown won't dig in the wrist. And, in addition, theoretically, we should take off the watch to set it ("theoretically" is the key word).
Thanks for sharing these great Phoibos models. Phoibos makes great "bang-for-your-buck" type of watches ... just like Islanders!! 😄👍🏼
Very cool!
I know it’s subjective, but I prefer your watches 🤙🏻
Could that new islander prototype be inspired by a speedmaster? Bracelet and clasp look like they could be, I would be about that!!
Oh man!!!
@@islandwatch The Moonlander if you will haha.
I called it haha, the Amerigraph is gorgeous!!
They really should have left the hands unlumed on the full lum Apollo.
Thanks for the review. Now I know that the brand doesn’t really speak to me.
I really wish they'd make smaller models. Especially that super sharp one
Understood.
4:28 let’s resolve to not make any Islanders “tortilla brown “
It's a deal.
Cool watches but can we get ISLANDER shirts???!!!!
I like the captain America Phiobos
I think I burst my eardrums with the swoosh and clicks. Your intro was soft, I turned it up and boom, lol
'Dried apricot'.
Are we sure about that 8 o'clock crown? 🤔
I actually love this design of the Narwhal, but good lord is it just too darn big! Shrink this down to a 37 or 38mm and this is an absolute winner
Yup!
Yeesh......
:)
