Traveler GMT 🚨Affordable
Traveler GMT Miyota 9075 from https://longislandwatch.com/ (last image credit)
Pros:
Absolutely over the moon (Venus?) over this red ❤️ and the dial 😍
Size (40mm x 13.2mm. 47.8mm) and comfort of the bracelet
Fit and finish
Affordable Traveler GMT
Lume 🔆
Color matched date
Cons:
Traveler GMT 😅- setting the date is an… event
The aluminum bezel is not the smoothest (not bad, and not sure if it’s due to being aluminum as this is my only Al bezel 🤷)
The minute marker are had to distinguish as @gbelleh mentioned (bit difficult to set time if it’s not at 5min intervals)
Cheers to Marc from Long Island Watch Dot Com 🤪

Nice! The red dial looks great too. Enjoy!
What a gorgeous design
Very nice! Islander really did a great job with the colorways in this series.

Def looks that way. Marc seems to be going from strength to strength in the affordable realm 💪

Everytime he pops up in my Instagram feed my wallet starts to tremble.

Nice! Unfortunately, my next islander is still out of stock but Marc did post that it will be returning soon.
I’ve been looking at this exact model since it came out 🫣
It really looks like a nice watch

Outside of the Miyota 9075 date setting having no quick set function due to the way it’s intended to operate (have to keep moving the hour hand).
I really have no real complaints. It’s gorgeous! Sry mate 🫣
I heard a little birdie say that they may be coming out with a Northport GMT sometime? They do have a lot of very nice offerings!

Marc is gonna make a killing this year, and it’s not even the end of Q1!

After browsing their catalog, I can see easily adding 2-3 more to my fleet!
They made a good choice with that movement instead of the Seiko equilivent. LIW does things right

Thanks mate (will say I’m totally biased for #islander tho 😅)

Not an issue for me. All traveller's GMTs operate that way.
But I think I might wait for the NorthPort GMT to show up...
It looks good. That red bezel is really attractive 😁. Congratulations to Marc for another well-executed watch 👏.

Yeah, there’s this metallic glint to the aluminum dual color on the bezel 👌
Beautiful piece!
This watch is a banger! For me, the best Islander so far! Great purchase! 👍

Agreed, might just be his best model to date. At least for a few weeks or so before he drops something else 😂
Thanks for posting that! I've been considering #islander but haven't decided which model. Great dial color

I have 5 Islanders, and this is def the best one by far. As long as you’re ok with the Travelers GMT (no quick set date) movement, this is absolutely fantastic. Keeping good time so far, the lume is superb, and the look is just 👌👌👌
