The perfect companion for globetrotters, combining the durability of a dive watch with the warm energy of an exotic sunset.
The Islander JFK GMT in Sunset Orange brings a dose of dynamism and summery atmosphere to the popular travel watch line. This piece was designed by American brand Islander with a clear goal: to offer watch enthusiasts premium specifications, extreme durability and a visually stunning design that will remind you of the moment when the sun sets over the ocean every time you look at your wrist. The name “JFK” is a symbolic tribute to the busy New York International Airport, which fits this GMT watch perfectly.
The main magnet of this model is undoubtedly its unmissable fiery orange dial with a three-dimensional embossed texture of flying clouds (Cloud Dial). This unique plastic pattern, combined with the bold color, creates a fascinating play of light and shadow, which gives the watch incredible depth and flair. The dial is complemented by sharply cut indexes and hands, which are generously filled with premium Swiss luminescence BGW9 Super-LumiNova, which glows bright blue in the dark. But so that you never get confused about the second time zone, the GMT hand has a black surface and is coated with a C3 compound, so it contrasts with a bright green tone in the dark and ensures perfect readability during the day.
While most colorful GMT watches on the market are fragile design accessories, the Islander JFK is built as an uncompromising tool for discomfort. It offers a massive water resistance of 200 meters, a screw-down crown cleverly placed at the 4 o'clock position (so that it does not press on the back of the hand) and a domed sapphire crystal with an internal anti-reflective layer. The bidirectional rotating bezel is fitted with a sapphire insert in black, which is practically scratch-resistant, beautifully frames the radiant dial and also has completely backlit numbers. Thanks to the combination of the inner 24-hour ring and the rotating bezel, you can easily watch up to three time zones on the watch at once. The overall impression of luxury and comfort is completed by the precisely crafted steel bracelet. Its links are connected by screws, the bracelet pleasantly tapers towards the clasp and the massive milled folding clasp offers 6 positions of micro-adjustment, so the watch fits perfectly on every wrist even during hot summer days.
Islander JFK #ISL-356 Sunset Orange is a watch with enormous charisma. It is the ideal choice for those who love adventure, like to stand out from the crowd and are looking for a reliable automatic "tool watch" that combines top Japanese technology and bold American design.
