    Thank you for the video. Long Island Watch with Orient, Laco, Seagull and now straps. Why shop anywhere else? I also like that Hemel (not ready to spend the money).
    Mark, this is a great way to market Long Island Watch Company.

    I love these. I just bought a shell Cordovan one.

      People should also know that "Genuine Leather" is the cheapest, lowest quality leather one can buy.
      Horween is better than any "Genuine" leather. I have a LOT of straps, and for the money, these are the way to go.

    hi, love your videos. are there leather straps available that have curved ends, that mate up with the round case inbetween the lugs ? I don't like that gap you see between the strap and the case. If metal bracelets can close up that gap, why can't leather straps do the same ?

    • @islandwatch
      @islandwatch  7 лет назад

      There are some, but they aren't common, since they are usually made by the watch manufacturer to meet the case perfectly.

    Such great looking straps. Any chance of getting these in 18mm? Planning on purchasing a Seagull 1963 soon and I'm going to want to replace the NATO it comes on, but it seems like the 18 mm lug width is going to make my strap choices a little slimmer...

    • @islandwatch
      @islandwatch  7 лет назад +1

      We can certainly special order one for you.

    Do you think the horween honey brown would pair well with the orient star classic with blue hands?

    What is the thickness in mm of the 22mm strap? I'm finding it hard to get a strap of this style to fit under the cuff!

    • @islandwatch
      @islandwatch  7 лет назад

      The straps we show first are just 2mm thin.

  • @ScornfulHippopotamus
    @ScornfulHippopotamus 7 лет назад

    What is the width of the clasp on the 22mm vintage style {item code:INS-HOR14)? I want to make sure I get a deployant clasp in the correct size.

    • @islandwatch
      @islandwatch  7 лет назад

      ScornfulHippopotamus 20mm. They all have a 2mm taper.

    hi guys a question of subject there is quite a lot of seiko dive watches which have PVD coating please tell me what does pvd stand fore and is it a durable finish . watching from Lahore pakistan love your content .

    • @islandwatch
      @islandwatch  7 лет назад

      Physical Vapor Deposition. It's a thin coating applied to the stainless steel cases. It can be durable it applied thick enough.

    • @rustyshackleford17
      @rustyshackleford17 4 года назад

      DLC (diamond like coating) is a better, more durable coating than PVD (physical vapor deposition).
      The quality of PVD coating varies greatly, but I've always viewed it as a cheap coating. Anyone worth their salt would do a DLC

    Oh yeah chrome XL I know it was coming up in this video I'd stay away from it it weakens the leather quite a bit on a molecular level it is very beautiful thou

    Horween is made with horse hide. If you want top notch straps find some horsemen shell cordavan.
