About this watch

Islander ISL-80 – Black Sandwich Dial Automatic Dive Watch – 200M

The Islander ISL-80 brings together vintage military-inspired styling and modern dive-watch construction. Its standout feature is a distinctive black sandwich dial, paired with warm Old Radium-style lume and a fixed pilot bezel for a look that's quite different from the typical rotating-bezel diver.

The sandwich dial uses a sunburst black upper layer with cut-out hour markers, revealing a luminous lower layer underneath. This construction gives the dial genuine depth and a three-dimensional appearance. Vintage-style Old Radium Super-LumiNova is also applied to the hands, creating the warm aged appearance of a classic tool watch while providing modern nighttime visibility. (Long Island Watch)

Inside is the proven Seiko/TMI NH38 automatic movement, a 24-jewel Japanese caliber running at 21,600 vibrations per hour. It supports both manual winding and hacking seconds and provides approximately 41 hours of power reserve when fully wound. (Long Island Watch)

The stainless-steel cushion-style case measures 42mm in diameter, 13mm thick and 49.5mm tip-to-tip. The top and back surfaces are brushed while the sides are polished, creating an attractive combination of rugged and refined finishing. Drilled lugs also make strap and bracelet changes considerably easier. (Long Island Watch)

Protecting the dial is a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment. Unlike a conventional diver, the ISL-80 uses a fixed pilot-style bezel, reinforcing its military/tool-watch personality. (Long Island Watch)

The watch is fitted to an attractive solid-link beads-of-rice stainless-steel bracelet with female end links. The milled push-button deployant clasp includes three micro-adjustment positions, while screwed links make bracelet sizing straightforward. (Long Island Watch)

With a screw-down engraved caseback and 200 meters of water resistance, the ISL-80 combines its vintage aesthetic with the durability expected from a modern sports watch. (Long Island Watch)

“my first purchase from Chrono24, and I honestly don’t have enough space to describe how much I appreciate the seller, rafael. we had a conversation that lasted several days, with many questions because of my concerns and doubts. The patience, respect, and professionalism I received from rafael were worth everything. every question was answered. every concern and fear disappeared. I received my watch faster than most of the purchases I make in my own country! and on top of that, I received a gift. nothing about this experience was taken for granted. I received a watch, I received a gift, and I also gained a friend named RAFAEL. rafael, my bro-when I travel to the usa , the first thing I’m doing is coming to see you, shake your hand, and give you a big hug! Thank you!”
