Today I've got a white dial Batman for you. I think I like it better than the black dial we already sell!

I'm also releasing my first no-date flieger watch. . . more to come :)

Thank you for watching.

Islander Automatic Dive Watch with AR Dome Sapphire Crystal, "Batman" Dual-Time Luminous Ceramic Bezel Insert #ISL-86​

The ISL-86 is a dual-time dive watch. It has a "Batman-style" sloped blue-black ceramic bezel with luminous markings that allows you to track two 12 hour time zones. It has a very familiar 43mm case with an offset screw-down crown at 4:00. Thickness is 14mm and tip to tip it is a very wearable 46mm. Note that the lug ends are drilled for easier bracelet to strap changes. The case back has a rendering of Long Island on it along with the Islander name, Island Watch and 200 meter water resistance.

Powering the watch is an NH36, 24-jewel automatic movement with 21,600 vibrations per hour. This self-winding movement supports hand winding and hacks (seconds hand stops when you pull out the crown). Power reserve is about 41 hours fully wound. The NH36 also has both a day and date wheel viewed at 3:00 on the dial.

The crisp white dial has SuperLuminova on the hands and hour makers and the Island Watch applied logo is under 12:00. The dial has enhanced visibility due to the use of an anti-reflective dome sapphire crystal that also guards against scratches.

The bracelet has solid links, solid end links and a dual push-button six position fully milled deployant clasp with micro-adjustments. For sizing the bracelet, you will find screws are used for removing bracelet links instead of pins.

NOTE: The Islander dive and dual-time watch is compatible with aftermarket parts available at Island Watch (and elsewhere) for the SKX007 models, such as crystals, bezels, inserts, chapter rings, dials, hands, bracelets, etc.

Islander Aviator Automatic Watch with Leather Strap and an Anti-Reflective Sapphire Crystal #ISL-87​

The new Islander ISL-87 is an Aviator-Pilot style watch with a Type-B dial. The case is a very wearable 42mm in diameter and it is just 12mm thick. Lug to lug (or tip to tip) measurement is 48mm. The screw-in case back has the silhouette of an F-14 fighter jet etched into it. The iconic F-14 was manufactured by the Grumman company on Long Island and it was featured in the movie Top Gun.

Inside the case is an NH35, 24-jewel automatic movement with 21,600 vibrations per hour. This self-winding movement supports hand winding and hacks (seconds hand stops when you pull out the crown). Power reserve is about 41 hours fully wound.

The green dial has SuperLuminova on the sword-style hands and hour makers. The dial is unbranded like many of the vintage WWII offerings. The Islander ISL-87 features a Type-B dial with a large 60-minute scale and Arabic numerals in the center of the dial. The hour hand, minute hand, and dial markings are all treated with C3 SuperLuminova. You will note that the dial has excellent visibility due to the use of an anti-reflective sapphire crystal that also guards against scratches.

This model comes with a medium brown leather strap with matching stitching. The buckle is signed (i.e. Islander logo). You can change up the look with a military-style nylon strap and any of our leather straps. The lug width is 22mm.

The ISL-87 aviator watch features a screw down crown which provides a water resistance rating of 100 meters.
