Islander's "first GMT that is crafted to be your companion for any occasion". Seiko NH34 caller GMT (GMT hand set independently against a 24-hour track on the dial), date at 6, 24 jewels, hand-winds and hacks, 40 hours per the brand. 40 x 13mm, 47.5mm lug to lug, 20mm lugs, brushed and polished stainless steel case (grade not stated), screw-down crown, 100m, screw-down exhibition caseback showing a custom rotor; sapphire front and back, the front domed with inner AR. Smooth fixed bezel (photos; Serious Watches lists "Fixed", steel). Dials hammered (ISL-211 textured like a golf ball, with a putter as the seconds counterweight, a flag at 18 on the GMT scale and water resistance given in yards), with brushed dauphine hands carrying a line of lume and Super-LumiNova outlining the markers: C3 on ISL-211, 222 and 255, BGW9 on ISL-212. Weight 84g from the spec table (not stated what was weighed; Two Broke Watch Snobs also quotes 84g). Sold on a 20mm leather strap with a prong buckle; Two Broke Watch Snobs, reviewing ISL-211, wished it had quick-release spring bars. A fitted steel bracelet (BRAC-11) is sold separately, so no bracelet specs are recorded. ISL-255 is tagged "Discontinued" and was sold out on 2026-10-21 (its $329 is the last listed price); ISL-211, 212 and 222 were in stock.
