The Islander Melville GMT is our first GMT that is crafted to be your companion for any occasion. Whether sport, dress, or in-between, the Islander Melville GMT proves that you do not have to spend a lot to get a lot. 

Inspired by the texture of a golf ball, the dial of this Melville GMT looks the part whether you are a seasoned pro, or an amateur. Because it is a GMT watch, and identifying the second time zone quickly is important, we have kept that GMT scale a smooth finish. But, only those with a sharp eye will pick up on the tiny putter we have used as a counter-balance of the seconds hand, adding a small bit of fun to a serious watch. Additionally, the "18" on the GMT scale uses a Golf course flag... and the water resistance is of course, given in yards.

The Melville GMT is a 40mm case that has a lug to lug 47.5mm. The case is a combination of brushed and polished surfaces. The crown is screw down, an Islander hallmark, that helps ensure 100 meters of water resistance. A 100M watch does not require a screwdown crown, but we prefer the extra measure of safety it provides. The dauphine style hands and done in a brushed finish, and have an intricate line of luminescence that makes telling the time in the the dark a breeze. Along with the Super-LumiNova that outlines the markers, you will find the watch to be as good looking in night, as in day. A date window is at the 6:00 position, and maintains dial balance.

Powering the watch is the Seiko NH34 automatic GMT movement, which is 24 jewels, handwinds and hacks, and provides 40 hours of power reserve. This is a caller GMT movement, with the GMT hand being independently settable to a different hour than displayed by the 12 hours hands. Turning the watch over and you can see the movement adorned with the custom rotor through the exhibition caseback. Both front and back crystals are scratch resistant sapphire.

Securing the Melville GMT to your wrist is a 20mm green leather strap with yellow accent stitching. Also available is an optional stainless steel bracelet (our part number BRAC-11), should you desire a sportier appearance.
