The Long Island Watch "Islander Diver" has all the goodies: Seiko hand-winding and hacking movement, sapphire crystal, ceramic bezel insert, 200m water resistance, drilled lugs, and all SKX parts (OEM and aftermarket) fit if you ever want to mod it.

It really is the watch Seiko should have made instead of the now discontinued SKX007/009/011. Even the new "SK5" is selling for $295 to $335 and is a lesser watch than the SKX that came before it (albeit with an upgraded movement).

As much as I love it, this is probably another "catch and release" for me so PM if you are interested.


Also, anyone going to the NYC WindUp Watch Fair next week? I'll be there Friday afternoon.

Thank you! I got a nice package in the mail this afternoon. I'll post some pics after I get the band sized. The pictures of this watch do not do it justice. It looks great!
