Islander Calabro GMT World Time Automatic Watch with Anthracite Dial #ISL-316 owners widely report excellent value at its $329 MSRP, citing the Seiko NH34 automatic movement, sapphire crystal, and well-proportioned 40mm case. The watch features a handsome anthracite dial with applied indices and a quality 120-click unidirectional bezel. On balance, owners rate the Islander Calabro GMT World Time Automatic Watch with Anthracite Dial #ISL-316 highly for its value and robust feature set at the price point.
Owners widely praise the Spinnaker Fleuss GMT for its aesthetic appeal and comfortable, light wearability, especially considering its affordable price point, highlighting its textured blue dial, applied lumed markers, and sapphire crystal with AR coating as stunning features. However, the watch faces criticism for its large 43mm case size, with some describing it as a "hockey puck," and a "jingly jangly" Beads of Rice bracelet with a pressed clasp, which is considered not finely finished. Some users also noted the internal bezel rotates too easily. Overall, owners rate the Spinnaker Fleuss GMT highly for its aesthetic success and value, particularly when found on discount.
The Spinnaker Fleuss GMT's Seiko NH34 movement is a recurring positive point. Reviewers also noted the watch's attractive colorways and comfortable wear. No shared weaknesses were identified across the reviews.
