Sold as the "Red Dial Automatic Dive Watch with AR Double Dome Sapphire Crystal, and 120-click Bezel" (no model name; ISL-59). The brand says it "has the familiar look of an iconic dive watch which has been discontinued"; the case, steel bezel and dial in the photos follow the Seiko Monster. Seiko NH36 (24 jewels) with day and date at 3, per the description and spec table. This is the NH36 build of the series; the ISL-57, sold under the same title with a Miyota 8205, is the separate model double-dome-automatic-dive-watch-miyota-8205. 42 x 13mm (the brand does not say whether the 13mm includes the double-domed crystal), 47mm lug to lug, 20mm drilled lugs, brushed and polished finish, screw-in crown and caseback (caseback type not stated), 200m. Slightly concave 120-click unidirectional bezel with a luminous pip (on ISL-59 only the pip is lumed; steel bezel in the photos, insert material not stated). Double-dome sapphire with AR "inside only". ISL-59 has white hands and hour markers with "SuperLuminova" (grade not stated). Case "Stainless Steel", grade not stated. Bracelet: all solid links sized with screws (instead of pin and collar), "milled deployant clasp with a dual-push button release" (micro-adjust, taper and bracelet style not stated). ISL-59 lists no weight; the spec tables of ISL-56/58/94/95/96 give 198g (not stated what was weighed). ISL-59 is tagged "Discontinued" in the Long Island Watch store and was sold out on 2026-10-21; its price is the last listed one. Other colourways sold under the same title, each described with the 24-jewel NH36 and the same 42 x 13mm, 47mm, 20mm, 200m case: ISL-94 orange dial with black hands and markers (C3); ISL-56 white dial with ice blue hands and markers, a later version with blue 15-minute bezel markings; ISL-58 off-white full-lume C3 dial with black hands and markers and, in its later version, a black DLC bezel with lumed markings; ISL-60 blue dial with silver hands and white markers; ISL-95 "Munster" purple dial with black hands, lime green seconds hand and lime accents (C3); ISL-96 seafoam green dial with white hands and markers (C3) and a bezel described "with luminous markings". ISL-94 was checked because it costs more ($349 against $279-299): its description, spec table and structured data all say NH36 (Serious Watches also lists NH36, though its template text says NH36 for the Miyota ISL-57 too), so it belongs here, not with the $349 Miyota 8205 ISL-57. ISL-94's spec table gives an "Engraved screw-in" caseback; one of its 2025 product photos shows a solid caseback marked "150M", which conflicts with the stated 200m (the photo may be of another model's caseback), so caseback type is still not recorded. ISL-94 is listed without a "Discontinued" tag and was in stock on 2026-10-21; ISL-56, 58, 60, 95 and 96 are tagged "Discontinued" and were sold out, their prices being the last listed ones.
