@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Thank you

@explained4242 8 месяцев назад

The JDM white dial is absolutely gorgeous. Wish you had them Mark.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

I'll check them out

@armandocardenas6094 8 месяцев назад

If you bring the JDM white dial , Id buy the first one .@@islandwatch

@delcas74 7 месяцев назад

Just got mine in the mail today Mark. It’s a nice watch. Thank you!

@peasantrobot 8 месяцев назад

Great design on the silver one! Perfect graphic proportions! The only Seiko that I am bookmarking :P

@adk7962 8 месяцев назад

Probably my current more affordable Seiko for sale. Thanks for showing them to us again!

@TheAirmacguy 7 месяцев назад

Hey Mark! You ran out of this baby. Had to order from Mr. Baldassarre 😳 😢lol😂 great video. Looking forward you making an islander variant 👍 💪

@robertholloway6887 8 месяцев назад

Had the 023 for a few weeks now, replaced the bracelet for a black leather strap, have ordered the 027/sbsc009 white face version from Japan, love it and it’s become my daily wear at the moment, will be replacing the Hardlex Crystal with sapphire and possibly a non display back to reduce watch height. A lovely watch which will stay in my collection.

@froregon1 6 месяцев назад

Where did you buy the SBSC009? I want the white version and would love to buy it from a trustworthy site. Thanks !

@robertholloway6887 4 месяца назад

@@froregon1 Hi Steve, I bought it thru chronos 24, £410 plus delivery import fees and VAT, just over £500. the payment is held in escrow and doesn't go to the seller until delivery is proven, I see now the price has dropped. Regards Bob

@nicholasurfe9568 8 месяцев назад

can't decide between Alpinist GMT or this. Got my first Seiko in '72.

@VictorAdameArt 8 месяцев назад

Seriously the production value of these new videos is awesome, keep up the good work!

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Glad you like them!

@mildmannerededc 8 месяцев назад

Great as always Marc... here's to blowing past that 200k in no time!

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Fingers crossed!

@alecjarnagin9041 8 месяцев назад

Love these Marc. I would have bought one from you (as I did with the release a few years back), but I had to go with the white dial JDM model! Should be here any day now (love the stealth black one too). While I suspect mine will live on a NATO or Erica's, can you confirm it is a pin only bracelet? Bracelet actually looks pretty good (I can size either but it is nice to know what I'm getting into). Thank you!

@earlbee3196 5 месяцев назад

I also went with the JDM SEIKO 5 SBSC009 Field Sports GMT Mechanical Automatic Watch ⌚️ How do you like yours?

@infinitekronos 8 месяцев назад

Congratulations!! Wish all the best here to 200k. We know you will make that goal and more!!

@nkd8074 2 месяца назад

He made it!

@JayBee-cr8jm 8 месяцев назад

Love the channel. How about a video on where, when and how to get your watch serviced?

@DoctorJ1337 8 месяцев назад

Don't worry about the plastic noise Marc, that's quality ASMR

@JB-qt8eh 4 месяца назад

We need an islander gmt just like this. Thank you.

@albsure1134 8 месяцев назад

Is there an islander version in the works?

@michielroskam3877 8 месяцев назад

Islander needs to rework, improve or innovate on the original design......not be a straight up copy, im sure mark agrees..... right?😊

@chriscon8463 8 месяцев назад

I can see him doing one with a sapphire crystal, screw-down crown, & a bracelet with screws & milled scissor-hands & clasp.

@seancondon2097 8 месяцев назад

I can see this as the basis for the Rangemaster GMT with some Islander upgrades and TGV design elements.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Haha, not yet.

@shj2000 8 месяцев назад

9075. Say no more and I'll be happy.

@Bluemax-1 8 месяцев назад

Both great looking watches. To me the black looks better but the numbers on the bezel are harder to read.

@Assureddominance 8 месяцев назад

That first one is nice.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Thanks!

@David-nx2vm 8 месяцев назад

That bezel has an Explorer II vibe - nifty.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Sure does.

@RafaRodriguezOfficial 6 месяцев назад

Are you planning to sell sapphire crystals for this model?

@certainly2509 8 месяцев назад

That bracelet looks exactly like the bracelet on my Hamilton Khaki ETO watch.

@jamesrosenkrantz180 8 месяцев назад

Those are some really nice new releases

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

I think so too!

@Stanjara 8 месяцев назад

There we go... these ones we want.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Yes!

@JimmyJazzCod 8 месяцев назад

Great review. Is there a sapphire crystal replacement already available? Thank you.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Not sure what parts fit yet.

@JimmyJazzCod 8 месяцев назад

Thank you for the replay. Hope you have a solution soon. Already bought the watch :)

@racamon 8 месяцев назад

I am sure many people already asked, but I missed it. Would you know if the overall case height would be less if the watch have solid case back instead of exhibition one? I feel like the field watches should be thinner on the wrist. There is a chance for a new modding item to be sold, Marc. If you made thinner case back, that is.

@JM.TheComposer 4 месяца назад

What is the purpose of the numbering on the bezel?

@ffxsam Месяц назад

That's how you read the second timezone (the red GMT hand). The numbers on the bezel is the 24hr time of that second timezone.

@Z-S-H 8 месяцев назад

Pretty decent, it being a field watch I prefer it not to have a date but each to their own, I like my date included ssk009 I believe, the blue dial gmt

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Thank you

@luigisavoia2401 8 месяцев назад

A rotating bezel would be nice, then you could track 3 time zones.

@Messier31NGC224 8 месяцев назад

"Gmt field watch" is an attractive and useful design. With the upgraded specs you usually incorporate in the designs, I think the Islander brand could make one that blows these watches out of the water.

@ColdComrade 8 месяцев назад

It’s beautiful and I wanted this until I heard you say it’s non rotating.

@joeskeptical4762 8 месяцев назад

*Add 3 things, and I'm all over it. 1. SCREW-IN CROWN 2. sapphire glass with underside AR coating 3. TRIANGLE shaped 24-hour hand.*

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Noted.

@elderjoe1 8 месяцев назад

Wish they had lumed the numbers

@prozacjunkie112 8 месяцев назад

I really like them but with the 4r movement theyre a bit spendy. Id rather it be a little more expensive and come with the 6r from the presge and alpinist.

@jreamer87 8 месяцев назад

What was the "blacklash" "gearing" "alignment" about?

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Space between the gears.

@davidblack8174 8 месяцев назад

I like the new GMT hand, has the vibe of the marine master second hand

@scottgordon6740 8 месяцев назад

The 023 is a really good looking watch. Not that big of a fan of black IP watches. Would like to have seen a rotating bezel and lumed numerals but neither is a show stopper at the asking price. I usually like to have a rotating 24 hour bezel on my GMT to get the full functionality out of the watch. Leave the 24 hour hand on GMT and rotate the bezel to the time zone of interest.

The New #5KeXplorer is looking 👌🏽 🔥

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Sure is!!!!

Datewheel matches dial😮

@brianmccord7387 8 месяцев назад

Marc what do you mean @4:12?

@flashben 7 месяцев назад

Don't understand why leave a big gap between crown & case..

@daveho852 8 месяцев назад

is that GMT hand not aligned correctly 😢?

@earlbee3196 5 месяцев назад

SEIKO 5 SBSC009 Field Sports GMT Mechanical Automatic Watch ! Mine is very slightly off.

@scrhunter3901 8 месяцев назад

Love it

@derekcarroll7524 8 месяцев назад

Nice watches

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Glad you like them!

@georgem2334 8 месяцев назад

Looks great, but too bad there's no screw down crown.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, I don't think there is a Seiko 5 with it

@ffxsam Месяц назад

It's a field watch, though, not a diver.

@jimwashington860 3 месяца назад

Should have had an oyster style bracelet.

@rutheri 8 месяцев назад

I know you mentioned it but the alignment on the GMT hand was somewhat off

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

That's why I say it

@armandocardenas6094 7 месяцев назад

The inner 24 hour track is not necessary and the new Seiko 5 logo is just plain tasteless, other than that the watch is fine. There should be a rubber strap version.

@richardsmegma5081 8 месяцев назад

Like them!

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

Ditto

@timeiseverything4 6 месяцев назад

Oceaneva GMT is a far better value over all

@whit107 8 месяцев назад

435 bucks and a mineral crystal.

@islandwatch 8 месяцев назад

👍🏻

@keepcalm1224 4 месяца назад

It's not standard mineral crystal. It's Hardlex which is a "type" of mineral crystal but not the pure thing because it's been altered to be a proprietary compound that has better features than regular mineral crystal. Just calling it mineral crystal is not just inaccurate but misleading.
