    The last one is the best imo. It looks like they put the most design work into it, and sought to make something unique, as opposed to the other ones that look pretty generic. Nice strap too. Congrats on the new brand!

    I agree you are offering an amazing watch for the price. However i have a question: Why do these brands have marked up retail prices that are out of sync with reality? The biggest offender being Invicta, which uses this markup to appear to be a better deal than it is on home shopping network etc. That leaves a bad taste in my mouth even if the watch is good, i feel like there's a level of retail trickery afoot and it's a turn off

      The Invicta model, as much as I hate it, actually works. Still, to this day, I will have people show me their $2,000 Invicta that they got for $85.
      You know my philosophy - if you're happy, and it makes you a watch person, then it's OK in my book.

      Its wild how many people buy things based off of marketing alone. They think they got a crazy deal on an expensive watch, and makes them feel good about it, in the end the marketing is what convinced them of that and what they've convinced themselves in their head. Sometimes its easier for manufacturers to sell you the idea of a nice watch rather than sell you an actual nice watch.

    Great Variety! Especially on sizes and color. Sapphire may not be included, but the design makes up for that. I don't like the non-swap strap on RPM version, but I think it is by far the coolest one in the bunch! It would have been an impulse buy all the way, but I stay away from custom straps or integrated (generally). If the RPM had swappable straps AND sapphire, (even at +$50-$75 more) instant buy. Great addition to store!

      Agreed. For me, less is more, and that goes for size as well as appearance. Recently, I have decided that (not more than) 40mm diameter and (not less than) 100m WR are my parameters for even looking, and I am rationalising my small collection accordingly. Also recently, I bought an MWC with 300m WR which, though it is SS not Titanium, is a sheer delight. As always, thanks to Marc and Island Watches for all you are doing for the industry and collectors great and small. Respect 👊
