$20 is a fantastic price. You're doing great work in listening to your customers and giving them what they want - I'm really happy to see the Islanders a success.
Wow, a seller who listens to, and more importantly, responds to the wishes of their customers. Your success, Marc, is not luck. It has been earned through years of doing things the right way. It is becoming more and more rare for ANY company to remember that the customer is the most important part of the chain. We all appreciate what you're doing, man.
My wrist is 7 1/4 so the male end links work fine. For those with smaller wrists, your prayers have been answered. Thanks Marc. Have a great day! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Amazing - someone that sympathizes with problems they don't have personally. I salute you sir! This really does make 43 and 42 a lot more wearable for those just under 7"
Me, being contrary as usual, own Addiesdive + Watchdives watches with female endlinks that I would prefer having male endlinks. It is great that you are offering your customers this option. The fit of a watch is very personal and the more options the better.
This is great! Female endlinks on smaller watches are a must so this is awesome to see. Can’t wait to see one for the oyster bracelet that fits the isl 36, 37 and 39 watches. Those I think will benefit the most from it.
This is a fantastic idea mark. Making it affordable for your previous customers is also amazing. You are the ideal watch maker because you actually listen to what people want and make it happen. Bravo! 👏
Not only does Marc listen, but he then acts! I have a large enough wrist to not really benefit from these, but I'm stoked that those who do need them can now have a better-fitting bracelet. Another win for Marc and Long Island Watch!
Great addition. Even with a 7 1/2 wrist, male end links normally are not an issue. I bet this would be more comfortable and for those with smaller wrists this is a very welcome.
Marc, great addition to your parts catalog and thoughtful consideration for your customers. The fact that a female end link will make most watches fit better to the wrist, especially on the smaller size. Male endlinks are not good on all cases, since they extend the lug size way larger than they need to be. Plust it will make the watch look and feel "huge" on an average wrist. Anyway, great addition to the line up!
He said the naughty "O" word oh no! Waiting to see more miota movements or maybe even one of the lesser known swiss movements, STP, ronda r 150, etc...
Great idea Mark! I’ve ordered from you before and you’re a pleasure to work with. It’s a good feeling to know that the person you’re buying a watch from isn’t a “salesman”, but rather a genuine, avid watch enthusiast. Always enjoy you’re meetings with TGV.
Just a thought. Make the Islander logo a small seconds complication. Don't change the look, size or position of the logo it just performs the function of a small seconds. I'm sure you've thought about it and others already suggested. It just came to me as an idea yesterday. Love your work. Cheers.
Great idea for those who want that! Personally, I prefer the male endlink on my 38mm ISL-20 diver. It gives a classier presence on my wrist. Also, 38mm diver is appropriately sized for my wrist, so the endlink protruding slightly from the lug doesn't bother at all.
Just purchased for my ISL-07! While my 7.25 inch wrist isn’t small, I prefer female end links (especially on a larger 43mm dive watch) for a more comfortable fit and I also prefer the look of them too.
Great idea, have my eye on several of your watches but ONLY thing stopping me from buying is the logo on the dial, sorry but if it just said Islander I would buy
I don't know if this exists yet or not but an islander brand of NATOs would be so so cool. Although not that easy to differentiate but still a nice touch to include in islander watches for a little extra
I've actually had this idea for a few years now. I told Strapecode about it at least two years ago. An end link kit so I could use my specific Seiko Turtle bracelets with a conversion so I could use the exact same bracelet, but with straight end links so I could use them on ANY 22mm watches. Also, conversions from 20->22mm and 22->20mm. It would be MUCH cheaper than buying all of those different bracelets, especially through a high-end, expensive company like StrapeCode. So kudos to you for doing it. And if you make them backwards compatible with StrapeCode bracelets too, I'll be your very first customer, since I own like 8+ different StrapeCode bracelets for my numerous Seiko Turtles and various other watches that require straight end links!!! It should be pretty easy to make them backwards compatible, since StrapeCode AND your bracelets all have a screw link between the end links and the first link
When you thought he was doing a great job, the man just up his game... again. 👈 Getting better and better as usual and customer focus.😎 I feel sorry for the competition. 😆
Please do these for SRPE DressKX! I've been on the fence about upgrading from my stock bracelet because all aftermarket ones have male endlinks. A female endlink oyster bracelet for my SRPE would be an instant buy for me. I'm sure plenty of others would feel the same way.
Bought my first Islander last week along with the kit, really helps with making the 43 very wearable for small wrists! The 46mm lug length doesn’t hurt either 👌🏻 Disclosure: wrist is 6 1/2 inches
Your such a tease with wrist watch check Mark!😜Guess I will see what the big stink is all about with female end links this week with the new Watermelon Watch coming to me this week! Wow huge difference with female end link🤯Keep up amazing ideas and watches👌👌💯

I want more companies to make quick release endlinks.
That's a really great idea, making these bracelets even better and more wearable for the masses. Great job
Thanks!
Marc. Truly a man of the people.
:)
Mark always appreciate your honesty, you’re a good guy. Love watching your business thrive.
Thanks for watching

Right on
Long Island Watch's attention to customer requirements and satisfaction is very commendable.
Thanks!
Yes!!! Going to purchase one right away!!! Thanks for listening to your customers.

Those end links are ideal for small wrists like mine.
What a game changer. Can't wait for the jubilee.
Me too
Marc, bought a hi-beat 38 from you a couple months ago and absolutely love it. One of the most comfortable watches I own.
Thanks!
Fantastic idea! Thanks Mark for continually putting your customers first. My Isl-01 fits great as is, on my 6.75” wrist. 😊
Sounds great!
Fair... considerate... and an example of how you think about your customer base.
Thank you.
Best, simplest, needed product in a long time. Well done
Thanks! 👍
Genius. And way over due, I’m glad somebody actually thought of this!
Clever thinking, great idea brought to market by a man who listens. Top work.
I should buy one for my ISL-2 and make a video on how to 🤔 thanks for listening to us. Marc
Go for it!
@@islandwatch thanks for replying back Marc 🙏
Such a great idea! Pretty awesome you listen to customer feedback.
Yup!
This is great! Female endlinks on smaller watches are a must so this is awesome to see. Can’t wait to see one for the oyster bracelet that fits the isl 36, 37 and 39 watches. Those I think will benefit the most from it.
Okay!

Thanks so much.
This company just keeps getting better and better. Like a sportsperson who wins the mvp and still improves their stats the next year.
Worth every penny. Excited for new models of these
Not only does Marc listen, but he then acts! I have a large enough wrist to not really benefit from these, but I'm stoked that those who do need them can now have a better-fitting bracelet. Another win for Marc and Long Island Watch!
Thanks Ray.
this is awesome news mark, thx for listening…!!!
Thank you
Fabulous Marc. Thank you for doing these things... NO ONE else does. That makes you unique in this business.
I'll wait "on line" for the Jubilee! Thanks!
Okay!
not sure how this vid escaped me 6 months ago, but this is awesome. Great price point too!!
Awesome! My wife stole a couple of my watches…but they are just a little big. She’ll love this mod. Good idea Marc.
Maybe that's not a good thing then! LOL
Another great idea 💡!!! You’re rocking the quartz Islander for several vids by now. Long honeymoon 💙😄
Yes! Thank you!
Great addition. Even with a 7 1/2 wrist, male end links normally are not an issue. I bet this would be more comfortable and for those with smaller wrists this is a very welcome.
Thanks!
watch makers should have this endlink by default !!! genius kit ;)))
When will you release a jubilee version? Looking to buy the isl-05 in a couple weeks
HI Mark. Love your content and you regular joe approach to things. How about making and Islander bracelet in 24 mm?
Absolute genius. I like how you’re always thinking!
Thanks!
Marc, great addition to your parts catalog and thoughtful consideration for your customers.

Thanks for that!
Marc you are going to make a lot of people happy 😃
Hopefully.
Yes!!! Great idea Mark. Looking forward to the Orient Ray 2 oyster now!!!
Marc, you are a friggin genius my friend!!!
Love your watches and philosophy of life in business 🙏
And I love my Islander diver watch 💓
Thanks Michael!
He said the naughty "O" word oh no! Waiting to see more miota movements or maybe even one of the lesser known swiss movements, STP, ronda r 150, etc...
LOL. Okay!
This is a fantastic idea! I’d love to see kits like this for watches like the Oris Aquis line.
What? The Aquis has a proprietary bracelet and it always have female style endlinks..
Great idea Mark! I’ve ordered from you before and you’re a pleasure to work with. It’s a good feeling to know that the person you’re buying a watch from isn’t a “salesman”, but rather a genuine, avid watch enthusiast. Always enjoy you’re meetings with TGV.

Awesome, thanks!
This is just a joy to see. Brilliant solution and it looks so much better I think. Wearability on a small wrist I’d think will improve bigtime 😊👍🏆
Great idea, have my eye on several of your watches but ONLY thing stopping me from buying is the logo on the dial, sorry but if it just said Islander I would buy
Wow!!! Well done Marc!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻 keep listening and improving!! My next will be an Islander with the negative endlinks 🙏🏻👏🏻
Such a great idea Marc. I love the problem solving solution. Great job.
You're the best, Marc!
Awwww
That is genius! Well done!
Well, I learned something new today.
Glad!
Hey Mark, I love your endlink conversion kit, but I live in Thailand. The shipping is like $27, even more than the kit itself!
I don't know if this exists yet or not but an islander brand of NATOs would be so so cool. Although not that easy to differentiate but still a nice touch to include in islander watches for a little extra
Enjoyed the video has some good info, as one with an 8 inch wrist I some times find myself having to adjust a bracelet to get a just right fit.
Thanks for watching!
So sweet! Thank You Marc!
My pleasure!
Awesome stuff! Hope these come to different bracelets as well. Would love it on the ISL-54 bracelet.
The sequel I knew that was coming to the last video. Didn’t expect the $20 kit tho, great idea.
Thanks so much
Good work Marc, great product as always.
Great idea. Thanks, Marc!

Finally I understand the benefits of female end links…
Definitely a great idea. I will have to but a few of them.
Thanks!
Negative endlinks have been around for quite a while. I'm surprised the Islanders didn't already have them.
Sometimes I gotta be nudged.
This is great Mark!
Please do a kit for the Islander turtle 'O' bracelet - would really help make the watch wear smaller.
THANK YOU MARC THAT IS AMAZING NEWS!!!!
Great, glad you like!
3:45 is a tease, haha. Can't wait for the chronograph variant of islanders.
:)
Very cool, and much needed
Simply BRILLIANT 👏 👏👏
OMG I need this for my Tissell Explorer!!!
:)
Any conversion kit for the ISL 54 braclet in the works?
Is there a further idea that you can buy one bracelet and can buy multiple end links to fit different watches?
Would buy a female endlink for the orient Mako/Ray jubilee in a heartbeat 😀
This is really slick!
When you thought he was doing a great job, the man just up his game... again. 👈
Getting better and better as usual and customer focus.😎
I feel sorry for the competition. 😆
Very cool, thanks!
Hoping this expands to the ISL-54 bracelet :) great idea!
I hope so too!
Please do these for SRPE DressKX! I've been on the fence about upgrading from my stock bracelet because all aftermarket ones have male endlinks. A female endlink oyster bracelet for my SRPE would be an instant buy for me. I'm sure plenty of others would feel the same way.
Will you be doing this with the 20mm jub?? 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Bought my first Islander last week along with the kit, really helps with making the 43 very wearable for small wrists! The 46mm lug length doesn’t hurt either 👌🏻
Disclosure: wrist is 6 1/2 inches
Great to hear!
Make a polished center link one, for the RED OCTOBER ❤👌
Mind Blown!
this is cool I have a SRPE with an Islander Jubilee and would love a female endlink conversion kit is there a posibility?
If there's enough demand
Fantastic idea! You must be an engineer!! 🙃
Grate job 🤙🏻 probably be Industry standard soon 👊🏻
Maybe!
Oh man. I'm just gonna have to keep adding stuff to that order, aren't I? Dang this is a cool idea.
:)
Nice. Just waiting on this for Bracelet’s 06 and 11. At that point swap out some 5 position clasps, and a green ceramic/coin edge for my ISL-44.
Good call!
Excellent. Plz make for SRPE DressKX bracelet models.
very good idea!!!
That is AWESOME !!
Awesome! Just ordered one!
Great!
Great idea! Great product!
Thank you
Perfect
Another brilliant idea, Marc and like most great ideas, blindingly simple! :-D
Thanks!
We need a pocket watch for the future Islander line up. 👍⏳
Ok!
Your such a tease with wrist watch check Mark!😜Guess I will see what the big stink is all about with female end links this week with the new Watermelon Watch coming to me this week! Wow huge difference with female end link🤯Keep up amazing ideas and watches👌👌💯
Thanks Steve
Hoping it was the linen dial or something cool like that.
