Today I'm joined by Marc Frankel of Long Island Watch for a new #watchtalk episode all about the Islander Rangemaster, your thoughts on our recent collaboration, and comments we received after its launch. In case you missed it, we're talking about the 38mm Islander x The Urban Gentry Rangemaster (ref. ISL-153), a limited-edition automatic watch we designed to be both elegant and affordable-and a celebration of two years of making Watch Talk videos together. In this video, we reflect on our first watch collaboration together, discuss the evolution of the Rangemaster design, the challenges we faced to make this watch happen, and the charities Long Island Watch and The Urban Gentry will donate a portion of the sales to. We also react to positive and negative comments, and share our thoughts on some opinions in the watch enthusiast community on how it compares to the Tudor Ranger 39mm, Rolex Explorer, and Seiko SARB033. And of course, we discuss the possibility of a Rangemaster 2 in our future. Join us for another laidback, essential watch talk episode that might just blow your miiiiind! And please share in the comments what you would like to see in an Islander Rangemaster 2!

I was lucky enough to grab the rangemaster from Long Island Watch the day it launched. It really is great value and a unique piece to own. I have several Islanders in the collection and will continue to be a customer for the foreseeable future. I recently made a Black Friday purchased and when I received it there was an issue with the crystal. I contacted Marc and with no hesitation he sent me a replacement in the mail. It actually was an upgrade from the watch I ordered since it was no longer in stock. The few times I’ve needed to contact him in the past I have got a response within minutes and solution to my problem. I will say Long Island watch is the best customer service I’ve ever recieved for a purchase from anywhere. Watching TGV and Islander watch videos brought me back into the wonderful hobby of watches after a long hiatus. Keep up the great work TGV and Islander! I can’t wait to see what the future holds 👍🏻😄✌🏻

I think a GMT with the new Seiko or Miyota movement limited to 200 would be a hit. Could be a Pepsi, but with the Polar dial. Red GMT hand and the red on the Pepsi for TGV, blue is Marc’s favorite color, the polar dial would separate it from the GMT master. Perfection!

I think a polar dial is a great idea! It would play to the Explorer theme very well. You could also incorporate pieces of the BB Pro to not make it a complete homage. I was SO Close to buying the Rangemaster. The only thing that stopped me is the fact that I’m waiting for an Explorer and I couldn’t justify having two watches that look so similar.

My father would tell us “He who hesitates - is lost.” After watching your announcement video, I did wait to order the watch until I had finished watching Marc’s video and ended up with 315/500. I initially thought the watch was a little small for me, but after wearing it for several weeks, I am thinking that most of my other watches are too big. In the ‘80s and ‘90s, I never thought of my 33, 36 & 38mm watches as being too small.

I was lucky enough to get the Rangemaster. Love it !!! As far as suggestions for the next iteration, I would say go a bit larger. I would like it better at 40mm. Also a polar dial would be good - but make sure the hands and hour markers contrast well - BLACK not silver. Sort of like the Explorer II (not GMT though - a useless complication as far as I'm concerned). In any case, good job with the current one!

For your next collaboration maybe polar dial, 38 mm case, lug to lug no bigger than 46 mm, pop of color on a seconds hand, strong BGW9 lume, jubilee style bracelet with on the fly micro adjustment clasp. As for the watch style something sporty that can be dressed up, like Aqua Terra, maybe a GMT but or vintage diver. Yeah, give us a heads up so we people from Europe can stay awake for the launch.

Like many of these referenced reviewers, I too just love your whole 38mm package: the thinness, the SS finish, the hands, the markers, the spaced minute track, the lume, the 24hr chapter ring, the wide bezel, the chunky crown, the solid bracelet & the clasp too; I mean, what more can be said! Now that the economy seems improved I do hope your discussed Rangemaster 2 or a "Polar" wont change those referenced essentials. The two logos and their placement seem appropriate to me & the font chosen is classy. With the logo at 12, might the additional "Islander" text at 6 be redundant? When a re-release does become a reality and if it's cost-effective for you guys, having drilled lugs on the Polar would be very welcomed.

Can't wait to see the second version. Maybe a 40mm polar dial. And appreciated the note at the end about the extra notice. Totally understand having the timing suited to the main market, but give us the notice to get up at 2am to make the purchase, and go back to sleep. Seeing the multiple reviews get released after it had already sold out was pretty upsetting. So even just a 24hr ahead to notify people would make a world of difference.

Great to see you two together again! I must say that every time I put my RangeMaster on it makes me thoroughly and truly happy. It is one of my favorite watches now. It is supremely comfortable and so fantastically well done. It is just a purely unique and enjoyable piece. I completely agree that you guys should collaborate on another piece! It MUST be different by more than color way. You can’t simply make it a Polar, but to continue the collaboration would be fantastic. Make it stand alone and keep each piece unique. This would as you said “honor the buy” and will keep the uniqueness of each piece, but at the same time allow others to enjoy the magic that you guys make together. Thank you guys so much for asking this possible for us, for delivering such wonderful content, products, and enjoyment, and for paying it forward with your charitable donations. Absolutely stellar.

I recently realized what I really like about many watch cases, the Islander Rangemaster included and what I don´t like about most Tudors for example: An elegant not too chunky side profile with a nice chamfer in the lower part. The uninterrupted high and flat side of a Tudor Black Bay turns me off even though that chunky design makes somewhat sense in the context of a diver. So again, great job combining elegance with sturdiness in the Rangemaster and I´m hoping for more to come .

I'm becoming such a huge fan if Islander Watches. The price for quality and beauty is almost unrivaled. I would love to trade a painting for one if that something that would be possible. If not, I'm still a happy customer and will buy many more in the future

Polar dial yes! I’m in my 60s and white dials are so much easier to read.

I would like to see some kind of early release with a pre-order availability. It would make it easier for people to get your watch and make production easier for you with known quantities that you would order.

I was originally bummed about missing out on this watch but hearing you guys talk about what went into this even more and the charities and the results and the success of it made me so happy. Happy for you guys looking forward to the next one!

You should definitely do another collaboration. But do a different watch. Maybe something with a vintage vibe? Or maybe a watch with a nature theme that takes cues from "a certain alpine watch from Japan". You could choose an environmental charity to give to as well.

Here's a suggestion to the guys: If you're going to go different, go with a Field Watch! I know Islander does those. May I suggest a deep green (Brittish Racing Green) dial with orange hands perhaps? The case could be a brushed metal and the applied indices could also be brushed metal with the islander logo and the Urban Gentry Lion to follow suit. Wowzers!!!!!!! Pre-order now fellas!!!!

Great video. By time I watch Marc’s video on drop day, they were all gone but that’s ok. Regardless, you guys are a classy AF and seem like real buddies. Looking forward to the next collaboration.

Congrats to the both of you! I'm glad this release was a success. I passed up on it this time, but I would definitely be interested in seeing what comes next. If I had to submit a wish list of my own, I would say that I would *not* want a white dial, but perhaps a glossy black one. I would love to see it in 36mm and a case with slightly longer lugs so it's less stubby (I problem I've always had with the SARB033 and pretty much all Omegas). I would also like to see a few polished surfaces on the case. I quite like the dial design and handset, and despite them being clearly inspired by other watches, I think it's a refreshingly unique and cohesive interpretation. PS. If you do go for a white dial, I would highly suggest looking into a pure white lume, or one with a slight yellow tint - I personally find the greenish hue of most lume (including that on the Rangemaster) clashes terribly with a white dial.

I think the Island Watch logo works on this style of watch b/c it looks like a compass. It gives a spirit of adventure!

I'm wearing my Rangemaster while watching this video and smiling. I had to purchase mine through a private seller on eBay and paid a little more but I didn't mind. Next time I'll pay a little more attention! For the next one (can't wait!), how about a design that pays homage to a very underrated watch (IMO), the Omega Railmaster. And maybe use Seiko for the movement. Last but not least, as a retired veteran ... thank you for donating to Wounded Warriors!
