    I feel like LIW has gone from a cute idea to SERIOUS player. This watch is strong.

    Hats off to Ryan for more excellent designs. Although my tastes become more and more particular as I go along my watch journey, Ryan’s designs consistently appeal to me. Well done once again!

  • @thenexthobby
    @thenexthobby Год назад +21

    Without a doubt, yes Ryan you knocked these out of the park! And the grey mixed in the bezels, making the colors creamy, is something not every titanium or gray case enjoys. I'm down to about 1 watch per year and these are all strong contenders.

      Thanks so much for the kind words.

    Such a great looking watch!
    The green one is my favourite.
    But we need those straps to be sold separately! Would be another game changer!

    It's awesome to see the Islander product line mature to more original designs. It's clever to use the SKX case shape but innovate on the materials, the hands and dials.

    absolutely love my black sands point, its everything I want in a watch. only thing I think would make it better is a ratcheting clasp, but that's just a nit pick.
    thank you Marc for making this beauty happen!❤

    These look great and reasonably priced.
    Any plan to release a smaller 39 mm case variant?

  • @CDOES
    @CDOES Год назад +4

    I Love the direction your going in with these watches mark! Im a sub 40mm guy and as thin as possible. So Ill beholding out for something along those lines. Any potential future for a solar powered day/date titanium diver sub 40/13mm? Beyond that these watches are GORGEOUS!

    oh my... I LIKE that full lume white version and I LOVE that you went with a no date NH38 excellent job Marc and Ryan!

    Still waiting on that Captain Willard Islander. Would be cool to see it done like this in titanium and different colors. And perhaps a quartz version 🤔

  • @wadebolderman3250
    @wadebolderman3250 Год назад +1

    I just ordered the green one and stoked to get it. I own many luxury watches but I think you’ve really accomplished something here! I’m a fan and based on Rob’s video, I had to get the green Kelp version. I will say that high polishing those indices, when you look at it, it looks very expensive thanks to that detail alone.

    • @wadebolderman3250
      @wadebolderman3250 Год назад

      And I received mine in the mail on Saturday, yesterday and I love it! The green couldn’t be cooler. After sizing it which was super easy, I haven’t taken it off. Such a great weight, a great strap and a great watch! I’m an instant fan. Tell Ryan to keep these designs coming!👏🏼🎯

  • @cesarespinozaspain
    @cesarespinozaspain Год назад +1

    A titanium 6105 "Willard" homage? or reinterpretation model would be absolutely amazing!!!! pair it with your waffle straps and some color variations along with the OG Black and silver or in this case Titanium = take my money. it works for the SKX so give the 6105 some love. I cant be the only one who would love this!!!!!

  • @gbsprasanna
    @gbsprasanna Год назад +1

    Very nice looking dial in titanium - tempting. Congratulations!

  • @hybridstrength5065
    @hybridstrength5065 Год назад +2

    Great job Marc. That matte ceramic bezel and the titanium give me a bit of a Pelagos vibe. An affordable alternative. Not a big fan of the no date, but can understand why it was done for the clean design.

  • @brianmsahin
    @brianmsahin Год назад +8

    Absolutely gorgeous looking watches Marc. Love that caseback. Love the matching straps. My favourites for sure are the white and the green, but all of them are impressive. Excellent video as always. 👍👍👍

    @armandocardenas6094 Год назад

    I see a blue one in my near future. You need a bright yellow one in the line up. I would buy both. I ( like you ) am a sucker for blue dials. In my opinion, your best watch so far and also one of the most beautiful divers ever produced by humans. Impresive.

  • @legionnairegonk4425
    @legionnairegonk4425 Год назад

    Green looks fabulous! Fitted strap makes for substance without a bracelet, and thankfully no date too! But most of all this is by FAR your best ever handset Mark! A second hand should be a sharp tipped pointer, no lollipop of any kind (except at the counter side like you have done here). Well done on your best ever design... Will be a smash hit.

  • @tossedpenny
    @tossedpenny Год назад

    Just picked up my 2nd Islander watch recently, the Sands Point white brain coral and I absolutely love this thing. It's instantly become my favorite weekend warrior watch and it will most likely sneak it's way into the work week as well here and there giving my daily driver watch a break. Took off the original white band and just match it with my drawer full of NATO straps. One heck of a Chameleon watch that looks really great on white, light grey, black, blue and particularly good on a forest green and army green straps which really surprised me, almost like a diver/field hybrid watch creature of sorts. Looking forward to my next Islander at this point.

    Kudos to Ryan, that is a beautiful watch. Of all the Islander watches I've seen and had the pleasure to test, this is the one I would purchase, the blue one. You hit a home run with this one.
    I've got to get one and do a review of it. Time to start saving up ...lol...

  • @markbailey7369
    @markbailey7369 Год назад

    I need a white watch and that is a really good looking white watch, and I do have a birthday coming up in about two weeks and that looks like a potential winner depending on how much I want to spend.

    @triples4good Год назад

    Ryan knocked this design out of the park! I have the Black Sand version on the way. Can’t wait to get it. This is the watch Seiko should have built, but if they had, the QC would not be as good as the Islander. Titanium does scratch but this is the type of watch that will look great showing a little watch love. This is my first Islander but won’t be my last.

    The fully lumed dial is steals the show. The whole lineup is an awesome addition to the Islander. Definitely consideronf adding one of these to my collection, but only after I figure out which Squale I want.

    Bead or sand-blasted titanium is one of the best wearing finishes out there. Yes it shows every scratch and snail trail, but the wear patterns are beautiful over time.

  • @watchchimp3102
    @watchchimp3102 Год назад

    2021 was blue watches, 2022 was green; I think in 2023 the more popular color is going to be Titanium! Aside from my latest G-shock, the last 3 watches I've bought have been Titanium. (Ceramic is coming on though)
    I like this watch, but I have to ask myself if it does anything my other Titanium watches don't do already?
    I do love the dials though, you're developing a reputation for killer dials! My Abalone Monster is sick!
    I was leaning towards the white one, but I'm not sure about the white strap? It seems like the obvious choice, but I might prefer black or even gray; so I have to factor that into the cost of the watch. 🤔

    Would be cool to make the islander logo as the 12 o clock hour marker. But like mark said it’s all funded by him so he does what seems fit for him and the company. Keep on rockin Mark!

  • @9tophat
    @9tophat Год назад

    Oh baby... Marc, you may have outdone yourself with these. Wow. If what you say is accurate about these fitting up to a 9in wrist, then my 8in wrist will be very happy, especially if I can have the clasp centered on the underside of my wrist instead of on the side like so many others that have the top strap not long enough for me to center it. I have no rubber straps for this reason. I hope this offering will be my first.
    Incidentally, I like your logo very much. Onwards and Upwards! Cheers!🙂👍

  • @defer-rare-rah
    @defer-rare-rah Год назад

    I like the idea of the second hand counterbalance being a circle that fits perfectly inside the logo. So every time the second hand is at :30 the Long Island logo is a filled in circle. This one comes close.

  • @darryllang3387
    @darryllang3387 Год назад

    Very nice! I just got the green dial and it is exceptional. Very original design and excellent execution. I would have ordered the blue dial but I already have enough blue in my collection. Really needed to add green, but…if this was done in navy blue, I would buy another one just for the color.

  • @2manysigns

    @jkstdstang Год назад

    Very nice! I have a full titanium Seiko so case and bracelet, forget the model, but i definitely love the lightweight and look of it. It even gets more wrist time than my stainless Orient ray 2 with soild strapcode bracelet. Great Islander models I’m digging them and that full lume and patterned dials wow!
