Jul 29, 2015 at 7:44 comment added YCor Let $t$ be an irrational. Define $X_t=\{e^{int}:n\ge 0\}$; this is a subset of the unit circle. Then the rotation $z\mapsto e^{it}z$ maps $X_t$ into a proper subset of itself; with the Euclidean distance this is a self-isometry of $X_t$. Unlike the Hilbert shift example, it's not a complete metric space.
