Islander Carbon Fiber Dial Automatic Dive Watch with DLC Case and Bracelet #ISL-144​

This is only our second full DLC watch (first was the ISL-34), and we think this one is pure perfection! Paired with a carbon fiber weave dial, and accenting red hands, this watch is the answer to your DLC dreams! The case, bezel and bracelet are done in full DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coating, which will resist scratching.

Powering the watch is a Seiko NH35 movement, which has a power reserve of 40 hours and offers handwinding and hacking. A date is located at the 6:00 position. The crown is screwdown, which ensures 200 meters of water resistance. Protecting the gorgeous dial is a double dome, anti-refelective sapphire crystal. BGW9, which glows a cool blue color, is used on the dial, markers, hands and bezel.

The watch is secured to your wrist with a combination brushed and polished stainless steel bracelet that is sized with screws. The clasp offers 3 positions of micro-adjust, and is 20mm at lug. It is also 20mm at the buckle. Turning the watch over, you will see our new embossed caseback.

Islander Orange Dial Automatic Dive Watch with AR Double Dome Sapphire Crystal, and 120-click Bezel #ISL-94​

The Islander ISL-94 has the familiar look of an iconic dive watch which has been discontinued. The Islander version mimics the original but, it has an all solid link bracelet that uses screws for sizing (instead of the very fussy pin and collar system). The upgraded bracelet also features a more robust milled deployant clasp with a dual-push button release. Another Islander upgrade is a double-dome sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective (inside only) coating that provides scratch protection and a clearer view of the dial and time.

The movement is a 24-jewel NH36 automatic that offers you the same reliable performance as later editions of this iconic dive watch. The orange dial features black hands and hour markers coated with C3 SuperLuminova for reading the time in the dark. The day and date window is in the familiar 3:00 position.

The lugs are drilled for easier bracelet to dive strap changes. Lug width is 20mm. The case size is 42mm diameter by 13mm thick. 47mm tip to tip. Finish is brushed and polished. The crown and caseback are screw-in and the uni-directional rotating (slightly concave) bezel is a 120-click with a luminous PIP. Water resistance is 200 meters.
