About this entry
84% of key specs known. Missing: hardening, crown, clasp micro-adjust.
Sold as the "38mm Automatic Dive Watch with Sunburst Gold Dial and Maroon Accents" (ISL-127); no other model name. Dial colours modelled on the 1970s Seiko 6139 "Pogue", per the brand; the larger ISL-149 (sold as "43mm") is a separate model. Same 38mm crown-at-3 case as the NH35 "38mm Automatic Dive Watch with Waffle Dial" (ISL-125/126), but with a Seiko NH38 (no date), so it is a separate model; the crown-at-4 NH36 ISL-21/63 are another model. Movement: the spec table and description say NH38, "a no-date automatic movement", and the photos show no date window; one later sentence mentions "manually winding the NH35 movement" and setting "the date" (treated as a copy error). The brand quotes a 40-hour power reserve. 38 x 13mm (not stated whether the 13mm includes the crystal), 44.5mm lug to lug, 20mm lugs, 200m. Oversized signed crown at 3 without crown guards; screw-down not stated. 120-click unidirectional coin-edge bezel with a red and blue sapphire insert; hands, markers and insert lumed with Super-LumiNova C3. Flat sapphire with blue AR on the underside. Embossed screw-down caseback; case "Stainless Steel" (grade not stated). The brand says it takes Seiko SKX013 parts. Weight 149g from the spec table (not stated what was weighed). Bracelet: solid links and solid negative end links sized with screws, 20mm tapering to 16mm, push-button deployant clasp (micro-adjust not stated); jubilee style (5 links per row) from the photos. Tagged "Discontinued" in the Long Island Watch store and sold out on 2026-10-21; the price is the last listed one. No independent review found.
