The new islander full lume is calling my name, with a side of dual-time bezel. Love what you're doing for the community by making these Islanders, keep up the good work!
These sapphire bezel inserts are fantastic in appearance and they fit perfectly. Marc got me a blue one for my Squale 1521 Satinato. Removing the old insert was a pain. Squale really doesn't want that thing to fall out but patience and several applications of Goo Gone did the trick. The new look is dynamite and the price is more than fair. Thanks, Marc!
The Islanders are getting better and better. Congrats! The blue color on the new bezel inserts is still just a wee bit bright for my taste as I really like the original color.they’re cool though.
Thats cool bud i love your vids 😀,,,hey i dident see who won the watch lol iv tried to get you on Instagram,,i must be doing it wrong lol ,,,thanks long Island 🏝
Hi Marc I have two of your drivers among others purchases. Pease consider making a dress watch something for formal occasions, dinner dates. Maybe a Salmond dial, pastel green, blue, copper or red.
Love these Marc. Any chance you’ll make some (or ALL) of the Sapphire and Ceramic bezel inserts from your Islander watches available for individual purchase? I bought the Pepsi ceramic insert back in the spring and I don’t really like it for all the reasons you stated. The new blue ceramic bezel insert from the blue Samurai Islander Diver would be amazing if I could get my hands on one.
I've several watches with lumed bezels, like Boulder and I'm not impressed with them. Sure if shine a strong light they look good but trying to tell the 2nd timezone is impossible. The Sapphire looks fantastic though. If You can quote the inside and outside of the bezel insert it would help with non Seiko /Islander watches
I got a dual time lumed bezel for my 009 a couple of weeks ago. I also changed it from 120 to 60 click bezel. Looks and performs fantastic. Is Mark OK? Looks a little like he's had to take antihistamines.
Hi- I own a Pepsi Orient Mako 2. Is there any way I could buy a bezel upgrade with the insert already installed. I don’t trust myself to do it and I don’t have a watch repair store of any note close to me. I feel I can pop off and pop on a bezel and that is about it. Also will the Pepsi dice bezel insert in this video work in the orient bezel upgrade?
Since it’s a 12 hour bezel... does it make any sense to have the Pepsi coloration? It’s not daytime from 3-9 o clock, and it’s not night time from 9-3 o clock
Long Island Watch haha I always hear you say that! And it’s true, but it’s cool to have the option and change the movement to get a gmt hand, I love the look of that Pepsi lumed bezel, but 12 hours had me scratching my head a bit
I've read it recently. Divers usually don't need seconds that badly. So they dont want the lumed second hand to distract from the more important minutes hand. However the seconds are still lumed so a diver can be assured that the watch is still running.
What a sense of pride you must have with the Islander Marc! Well done you!
Thank you kindly!
Haha love how excited you get when talking about the Islanders , waiting on that restock shipment. Keep killing it Marc!
Thanks!
The ISL19 with this dual time bezel would be a stunner!
I think so too.
Mark your horological talents have no bounds. I am like a cat on a hot plate waiting for the next wonderful installment.!!!
LOL, thank you.

Thank yiou!
Hope we see these in the skx013 size.🤞🏻
Okay!
The bezels look nice, I want one but I need to buy the SKX first 🤣
Just buy an Islander with one already installed!
Understood!
Alex Palma my exact thoughts
@@brnrubber303 are they made with original seiko parts?
Jake Sky Ellis good idea! But the SKX is a legend. 👍🏽
Love it! I used the Squale sapphire insert and it fit perfect on the SKX!! Love it!! Thanks for supplying great products!
Yeah, it does :)
What model Squale?
"Ehhhhhhhh, about 4 weeks or so....."
Yesssss! Stoked!
Woo hoo!
Amazing what effect a cigarette paper thin ring has.
The Jubi looks at home with the pepsi colours.
Great creations LIW, awesome.
Thank you so much 😀

Another fantastic product Mark!

Love the watch, love the website and the watch would make a fabulous present for my partner who collects watches
Have the ceramic Pepsi on my Orient USA II. Love the chrome red effect. Great product! Thanks Mark!
Right on!
Fellow worker wants an Islander with double dome and Pepsi bezel and there were none. Now you can make his wish come true with those bezels.
Yup
Love my ISL-01! Would be interested to see a white dial with a few red accents. Keep up the excellent work!
Thanks!

I am, don't worry.

Thanks!
Number 2!

I bought one of these bezel inserts for one of my SKX’s from LIW a few months ago(or at least one very similar?......I absolutely love it!
My mistake...was just the insert( no sapphire)......still......great!

"Batman... Drinks a Pepsi... "
BAHAHAHA!!!
Where you saving that or did it just come to you?
Just came to me!
Any word on bezel replacements for the Kamasu?
Under production
Awesome. Totally buying a Kamasu when the replacement bezels arrive.
LOVE IT!
Thanks.
Hi mark, any plans on making this kind of bezel for the skx gmts? I would be very interested in purchasing one.
Got the full lume bezel for the Squale 1521 order it on 23 April got it in Sweden 30 June. The mail is not fast in coronatimes.
I've several watches with lumed bezels, like Boulder and I'm not impressed with them. Sure if shine a strong light they look good but trying to tell the 2nd timezone is impossible. The Sapphire looks fantastic though. If You can quote the inside and outside of the bezel insert it would help with non Seiko /Islander watches
Thanks for sharing
Is that lume in the thumbnail blue because of the camera or is it actually blue? Would love to have that color of glow.
Just used this bezel while grilling outside. what....its for diving?
LOL
Does Sapphire crystal come flat as well as the domed? I here everyone talking about the double domed, but not so much the flat or normal crystal.
Any inserts for the 013?
Yes, we do have for the 013; different colors.
Do you have a sapphire or ceramic bezel insert for the 7002?
Are you going to have a 38mm pepsi-sapphire dual-time?
Sharp inserts! But do I want to mod my ISL 01? Hmmm...I'd have to think on that one
Ok!
How about an Islander GMT?
I got a dual time lumed bezel for my 009 a couple of weeks ago. I also changed it from 120 to 60 click bezel. Looks and performs fantastic. Is Mark OK? Looks a little like he's had to take antihistamines.
Feeling great!

You need to install the insert after the bezel is on so it lines up correctly.
I just ordered the dive insert for 009 and a new bezel so I can keep the original insert. Do you sell nh35 findable hackable movement to mod my 009?
Wow nice watch sir ilike pls can you give me one saiko 5 sir
Is blue lume more "expensive" than green-ish lume?
Not really, but doesn't glow as well.
@@islandwatch Alright, cheers!
Since it’s a 12 hour bezel... does it make any sense to have the Pepsi coloration? It’s not daytime from 3-9 o clock, and it’s not night time from 9-3 o clock
No. It doesn't. But it's the look of a panam gmt people are after. It makes no sense having a 24 hour bezel on a 12 hour watch.
Long Island Watch haha I always hear you say that! And it’s true, but it’s cool to have the option and change the movement to get a gmt hand, I love the look of that Pepsi lumed bezel, but 12 hours had me scratching my head a bit
Hey Mark, do you have any red ceramic bezels for SKXs?
No, sorry.
Do you have the batman dual time? If not, is it coming?
Found it on the site...thanks
Skx 033j?
Gray sapphire inserts please
Ok
People really love their SKXs huh...
Fo sho
Can I use one of those in my Seiko samurai?
No, sorry.
Any Dress Watch Islanders coming soon?
Under production
@@islandwatch 😎😎😎😎 Awesome. Thank you Mark
Kamasu sapphire bezel inserts coming soon??? Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee
Yup
Long Island Watch when????
Do these fit the mini-turtle?
No, sorry.
Help me understand why they put the “pip” on the opposite side on the second hand....
I've read it recently. Divers usually don't need seconds that badly. So they dont want the lumed second hand to distract from the more important minutes hand. However the seconds are still lumed so a diver can be assured that the watch is still running.
Jonas Westermeyer If it isn’t needed, then why lume it at all? If not to distract, then it would make sense not to lume it.
Part of ISO requires it to be lumed.
It’s lumed so the wearer can see that the watch is still running. Plus it’s and ISO requirement.
Looking for orange for my skx 11
Don't have, sorry.
Would these fit the 5KX?
Yes
Your timing couldn't be worse, I just ordered these from LCBI because you wouldn't say if you were making them. Too late now.
Almost looks like too much lume, just an opinion.
Oh my, is that ever possible :)
