The Orange Monster Lives On... and Bold New Islander Watch Colors

[@omegadevelopments]

Really enjoyed this. Recommended by a collector who took pity on my high street watches. Purple monster.... gorgeous!

[@4stringz.]

The seafoam is gorgeous. Can't wait for mine to arrive! UPDATE: arrived today and it looks AMAZING in person. This is a beautiful watch!!!

[@johndorian7096]

Mark, Mark, Mark ... you didn't have to make that orange Monster. And, I didn't have to buy it immediately after seeing it. But you did, and I did. So, here we are. I guess I'm an Island Watch fanboy now. Keep up the good work!

[@islandwatch]

LOL, thank you very much.

[@triples4good]

That Salmon dial is beautiful. The Islander brand is a serious contender for the best micro brand available! Fantastic work Marc!! Honestly puts Seiko to shame.

[@ahmedhamam4197]

Marc the islander line is pure 🔥! Keep it up bud and again, nothing but success!

[@islandwatch]

Appreciate it!!

[@pederlindstrom3132]

Purple,, green,, my colours. I am having a increase of heart rate over here and I have one thing to say. In the words of the great Freddy Mercury,,, I want it all. They are all fantastic peices.

[@stephenbridges2791]

That fully lumed one is nothing short of outstanding. Very well done.

[@islandwatch]

Yeah, the black bezel really pops.

[@edmoore7523]

WOW, beautiful as always! Love the purple!!

[@islandwatch]

Thanks!!! Me too

[@Apollo440]

The full loom model is a beaut! You've outdone yourself, Marc. Wow! The amount of Islander watches I'd love to have keeps getting bigger. Video by video. :)

[@leonidaslantz5249]

Marc, you knocked it out o' the park with these Monsters. That sea foam green dial is fantastic and that lumed bezel.....👍👍🎯

[@islandwatch]

Thanks 👍

[@1981ctkelly]

Glad to see you addressed the bezel action, I have one that suffers from that illness. Even more excited about the orange dial face option now!

[@islandwatch]

Always improving.

[@chasonforehand2486]

I appreciate you guys dropping an abundance of designs / variations. A rarity from reputable watch companies these days

[@sciguyfragz1616]

I need that purple one with the green definitely makes me think joker! That and purple is my favorite color under used color for mens watches.

[@islandwatch]

Good choice!

[@harryhirsch3637]

Man, this is the first islander with it's own nickname. The islander joker! Gorgeous!

[@MaddawgLongboards5]

Think a dark purple, waffle dialed samurai diver would be perfect.

[@robwebster8472]

The orange looks great. Good choice of orange color.

[@leroy4191]

The terror of New York, the orange Islander Monster! It’s on my list now Marc

[@islandterror5198]

I'm the OG Terror of New York 🥵 lol ✌️

[@islandwatch]

Nice choice.

[@stephenhuber1079]

This watch looked really phenomenal on wrist! Very nice and on my radar now!

[@islandwatch]

Agreed!

[@richardtwyning]

You came through Marc, you said Monsters were coming back soon 👍🏻 My wife ordered my updated ISL-56 this morning. That's my Christmas present 😁 It's really worked out well, think it looks much better with the blue 0 to 15 markings. Glad she waited 'til just now. 😁

[@jeremysmith9696]

On my wife's "Santa" list as well.

[@islandwatch]

Very cool

[@looseunit1615]

Lucky. I have been hinting to my wife to buy me a watch from this guy. She bought me a new gun instead. That's ok. I will get the watch myself. 😀😀😀😀

[@brianmsahin]

Gorgeous watches Mark! The Monsters are great, though I'm a pointy tooth man myself!! That salmon one on the wrist is stunning!!

[@GuillermoGonzalez-hz4um]

Bought the purple monster. I could not resist. Keep up the great work.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks!

[@TheWatchCorner]

Mark your killing it! That orange🧡🧡🧡🧡The refresh on Luminous dial one👌👌👌👌👌👌💯 with DLC Bezel!Keep making amazing watches!! Seafoam and purple beautiful too👍👍

[@islandwatch]

Thanks Steve!

[@kevinsellsit5584]

So I took some time off of the 'spend too much time watching watches' lifestyle and now you're designing your own line of Seiko Instruments. COOL. The last video I watched was the Seiko gives you a Spring Drive (extreme jealous). I'm still wearing 4 decades of Seiko's 4-5 days a week but now I can clearly see I need a fresh new monster in my life. Now that you have a backdoor key to Seiko can we special order custom watches through you (example the Orange with the DLC bezel and a sapphire crystal) assuming we were willing to pay now and wait until the next round comes in?

[@robedmunds7163]

That full lume with the black bezel is a stand out piece.

[@CowCatwithafancyHat]

That green works so well with the silver and white, I would love to see it more, it's refreshing. For the purple one, it is bold, loud, and invokes movement, would be great for athletic person. At first, I wanted to also write feedback about the green markings needing black outline but, after looking at it for more time, yes, it works as it is. The style is not for me, but I appreciate it. P.S. That green on a 38-40mm would look spectacular or as an/part of an insert bezel at least in my head it does.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks so much.

[@TheRealChetManley]

Already got my shipped notification for the Orange I ordered last night. Ordered it right after I saw your Instagram post 🙂 Now I need that purple one. Hopefully it's still available when I'm ready to get it.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks for joining!

[@candide1772]

Three very cool additions to the Monster Islanders! I especially like the sea foam green dial. No wonder all my recent purchases are almost exclusively Islander watches. Keep up the good work.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks so much for that.

[@FrankLavoy]

That white and blue is perfect … but, funny enough, I really like that purple dial version 🤔 Thanks for sharing Marc.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks for watching.

[@rowdyron4111]

Gorgeous. I need that orange one, but will probably get a couple of colors.

[@LS1007]

Awesome! Nice colors. I’m surprised there’s not a red one. Thanks for sharing them Marc and have a great day!! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

[@islandwatch]

Did a reddish one last time.

[@senorlasvegasjunkie1730]

Now tempted to order the Seafoam Green as well : )

[@mdjelder]

Love love love the purple!

[@islandwatch]

Thank you!

[@charlesmostert]

That purple is amazing, not something I would be able to wear often with my current wardrobe thought. I would love to see a video showing your premises and team at Islander, I know you are an online retailer but I would love a tour?

[@islandwatch]

I've thought about it, just never pulled the trigger

[@cowboyswami2017]

Love all your watches 🙌

[@toddalshouse5164]

Digging Ryan’s contributions 👍 definitely fun choices

[@islandwatch]

Awesome thank you!

[@markmaraskiward]

I just sold my Rolex ref. 126334 blsj and bought the Isl 38 and all I can say is wow. I honestly enjoy wearing it more than the dj. The Isl 38 is clearer to read with the ar coating. Size wise it plays a little smaller than my dj 41 but a bit bigger than the 126234. Well done Marc. Now waiting on my 🍊 👹! Can’t wait I had the gen 1 black seiko monster but sold it a couple years ago.

[@adamcolbenson3728]

Already got the purple one in my cart! Been searching for a good purple dial. Also I’m in New Orleans so this is my new Mardi Gras watch!

[@islandwatch]

Great, thank you.

[@oceanwatchesclaudejolly1742]

Hi Mark I just ordered the orange islander custom , when I will receive it will do a review can’t wait see this beauty I love the white dial too

[@chronocommander007]

The one with the full lume dial and the DLC bezel looks absolutely fantastic. 👍

[@islandwatch]

It really is!

[@rossroteliuk5838]

I am falling so far behind on my collection of these beautiful pieces lol .. great work Mark !👍

[@islandwatch]

Thanks 👍

[@gimbydude491]

Great additions and tweaks. Love the lume monster both the day and night look.

[@islandwatch]

Thank you.

[@paulhiggins8774]

Nice chunky dive watch, looks the job

[@mattys1467]

That full lume with the black bezel 👌👌👌👌👌

[@islandwatch]

Smokin

[@tiberiuvincze8288]

Some incredible combination of colours but all likely! Nice

[@islandwatch]

Many thanks!

[@Nefville]

Hey just wanted to say thanks, might have missed your cutoff here thanks to YT notifications but I am really enjoying this ISL-37. Took it on vacation, climbed mountains with it on, done all kinds of stuff in this watch. I swear if it comes back in stock or if you do a green/ mint green dial version I'll get a backup, I love this watch too much. Haha just was here to say thanks and there it is the ISL-37 and mint green lol one mind!

[@simoncrawford350]

Awesome looking watches 😎🍻

[@robwebster8472]

I love the baton style rectangular indices on these Monsters. Way better than the toothy style. Great style Mark. I just have so many round indices dive watches. I think that you could do really well by homaging an oris aquis or a Chris Ward. Higher end pieces would be wonderful.

[@bobdrexler5342]

I HAVE HAD BLACK AND ORANGE MONSTER'S, FOR YEARS AND YEARS. STILL TELL TIME.

[@specialkfouryou]

The lume monster is killer, keep up the great work!

[@islandwatch]

Will do, thank you

[@azdbuk]

got the seafoam green, gorgeous....

[@chrishynes6091]

Not really sure what I wanted for Christmas; I decided to treat myself with one of your 'Monsters'. I wasn't looking for a new watch because I've been very happy with my 007 that I bought from LIW a few years back. That 007 actually got more accurate after a couple years... I used to have to set it 3 minutes fast every couple weeks to keep it in the zone. Now I barely set it at all except the bi monthly date adjust. I figured a Monster just has to be orange, so I'll give it a shot; plus it has a sapphire crystal; which I've always wanted. I set the time , got it wound, and left the plastic on.. in case I decided that I didn't want it after all in a day or two. When I saw the 24 hr accuracy the next day, I pulled the plastic off, then with the help of the included screwdriver (Nice surprise ! ) took out 3 links for a perfect fit.... It's a keeper! I ordered early because I was afraid if I waited than I wouldn't have it on time for Christmas with all the supply chain issues going on and possible shipping delays due to the output that happens around the holidays. But now that I've had this gem on there's no way that I can put it back in the box to sit for 2 more months! Arrrrrgh!

[@mikep5478]

The Full lume and DLC bezel looks awesome and they all five versions look great. Pin and collar doesn't bother me plus they are very secure, but some folks don't like them. The screws in links are a nice touch. Thanks for the preview and good luck with these.

[@islandwatch]

Thanks so much

[@ricknixdorf7316]

Marc, I recently purchased a Monster Orange! What a great looking and feeling watch. I really like it! What does double domed crystal mean? I understand the saphire part of the description and the AR coating nut not the double domed part. Again, Monster Orange is am eye catcher!!!

[@patti_b9388]

@islandwatch Have y'all thought about doing a Baby Tuna with a similar dial to these Monsters? Think y'all could kill it with how these turned out. Keep up the awesome watches!

[@wolfbite6]

this is why im sticking with islander fantastic work at a great reasonable price. Have nothing butt islanders just ordered the redid c3 love your full lumen line. Cant wait till it comes in

[@davemck1887]

You're getting better at avoiding the old two fingered salute Marc 🤣. Cheers mate!

[@islandwatch]

LOL

[@jamessmith6402]

Beautiful watches well done 👍 thanks Marc

[@islandwatch]

Thanks James.

[@GearheadCountryRadio]

Awesome , as you selling just the black bezel as a separate part by chance ,,, Thanks

[@CaieJay]

all this needs is a logo on the clasp and it would look beautiful!!

[@islandwatch]

Hmmmmm

[@navajasrs2402]

Not a monster fan, but all of these look great to me except the green. Find the white surrounds odd, hard to read, and out of balance with the black border around the date window.

[@t-murdock]

That lume monster is insane! Love it

[@islandwatch]

Thanks so much.

[@TheLumeRoom]

Love that OG orange. Very halloween 🎃

[@michaelcoleman7260]

These all look great Marc. Keep up the good work.

[@ZommBleed]

Monstrous Marc has Marc Monsters! I need that purple/teal one. I'm switching jobs and can't buy it for at least two weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Been out of work for a month!) Good times to follow.

[@M0980a]

When are the custom case backs available???

[@Valvey789]

I like my Heimdollr orange monster homage but I feel a stirring in my loins for your lume dial model. That's a hit.

[@islandwatch]

LOL. Thank you.

[@trooper427ss]

On the seafoam green dial, the boarder around the date/day should have been white instead of black to match the rest. Great job 👍. They really do look good.

[@islandwatch]

Thank you

[@awelshhooligan9178]

Just ordered the Sea foam green....can't wait to see it in person! Fantastic colors , for the price you can't go wrong.....I was debating another Seiko diver and the green Sumo....but that sea foam green just had to have it 🙋

[@RhinoRhinoGiraffe]

Are you planning on doing a custom clasp for the Islanders in the future? The generic clasps on these are the only thing that is holding me back. Maybe some premium models with some on-the-fly adjustment? That would be amazing

[@islandwatch]

We sell them as extras.

[@emptyMan0]

This is quite tempting.

[@stileshumphrey4195]

Love the orange and sea foam dials😍

[@islandwatch]

Thank you.

[@Cville2347]

Great new colors! Really slick…

[@paulkennedy6386]

Saving up to buy one ! Only problem is I want them all. Doing great work Mark - keep it up.

[@harryhirsch3637]

Great color choices! If you do seafoam green, maybe next time you can do some more vintage fender colors like lake placid blue or aztek gold? Would love to see a metallic dial in these colors

[@islandwatch]

Noted, thank you

[@ryanthomas9306]

I see that red islander pilot watch on your website, where’s the video !? I wish it came with a black band

[@manuelsalamanca913]

Orange one ISL-94 is sold out. Will you bring it back!!??

[@EmmanuelYujuico]

Nice! BTW, perhaps you can address this customer's concern with Seiko movements: Since you're selling quite a lot of own-brand NH36 movements and Islander x [brand] ones, perhaps you can offer your own upgraded movement of at least 50 hours. When you reach $350-$400 street with higher-midprice models (not this one), you begin competing with Hamiltons featuring 80-hour power reserves. If Seiko won't upgrade (despite charging more nowadays), maybe Marc will?

[@Michael_R1957]

Love the seafoam green. Thinking of saving up for it.

[@islandwatch]

Cool, thanks so much.

[@casperswift]

I like the purple because it's very unique it's not really my style but I appreciate the originality.

[@bradleyjohnE]

Mark! No damn it! I told myself I wasn't going to buy anything because my sister's wedding is in November and you do this?!?! Ugggg now I have to wait until new years to get that ORANGE.... Thank you for releasing it

[@islandwatch]

LOL. You are welcome.

[@bradleyjohnE]

@@islandwatch haha it's an honor to get a reply from you. But seriously when you released the monster line I said out loud, "I will wait for the orange dial" because I was getting a new piece and knew you would release it... all well, watch for my order in January, gonna have to wait until then

[@ZommBleed]

Dude! My sis is getting married in December. Now I need that purple one for sure!

[@bradleyjohnE]

@@ZommBleed we are cursed men haha congratulations to you and your family

[@violet-kittychick]

I love the sea foam and the purple one but I don't know if I could sacrifice 'Pinky' and how well that watch works both at day and night!! If I was like super rich I would totally buy the sea green and purple ones hey!! I have also never heard of anyone offering more links hey.. for me I have to remove them and from a 40mm+ men's watch I always have to remove around half of the links so it fits my wrist hey!!

[@gerardoesparza8650]

That purple rain ☔️ purple 🌧 monster is awesome. By god mark once again you out did yourself again …

[@islandwatch]

Thank you! Cheers!

I thought I'd like the orange or full lume Monster most, but that seafoam green dial is amazing. Instant favourite!
