Islander Mitchel Black DLC Field Watch

The Islander Mitchel Black DLC Field Watch is a modern take on the classic field watch, featuring a "stealth" aesthetic with a fully luminous Super-LumiNova dial. The dial provides high visibility in low-light conditions, while its black-on-white 12-hour and 24-hour military scales ensure quick time acquisition. To protect the dial from scratches and minimize glare, the watch is equipped with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The case is finished with a durable Black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating, providing enhanced resistance to wear and an understated, tactical look. Designed for comfort and versatility, the Mitchel features a 39mm case diameter and a thickness of 12mm. The lug-to-lug distance of 48.5mm ensures a secure fit on most wrist sizes without extending beyond the edges. It is paired with a 20mm black nylon weave strap that features contrast stitching, a leather backing, and quick-release pins for tool-free changes. At a total weight of 70 grams, the watch is lightweight and suitable for all-day wear. Powering the ISL-83 is the Seiko NH35 automatic movement, a reliable Japanese caliber that has been modified to remove the date mechanics for a cleaner, symmetrical look. This movement supports hand-winding and hacking, with a power reserve of approximately 41 hours. The mechanical operation is visible through a screw-down exhibition-window caseback, and a signed screw-down crown ensures a solid 100-meter water resistance rating, making it a dependable partner for daily field use.
