What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Astor + Banks Terra Scout

Owners praise the Astor + Banks Terra Scout for its compelling value and well-executed sandwich dial. The watch features a La Joux-Perret G100 movement regulated to +/- 8 seconds per day with a 68-hour power reserve, and offers 200 meters of water resistance within a compact 38.5mm case. Some reviewers noted a desire for a no-date configuration. On balance, owners and reviewers find the Astor + Banks Terra Scout a well-priced and compelling field-style watch.

From video reviewers

The watch's classic proportions meeting modern aesthetics result in a solid and substantial feel. The layered sandwich dial with a dedicated minute track is a thoughtful execution of the brand's design language. The watch's water-resistance is not mentioned, potentially leaving users uncertain about its capabilities.

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon is widely praised for its creative, fun, and original design, with reviewers and owners alike highlighting its vibrant colors and ability to serve as a conversation starter. The watch is considered well-made for its price, featuring a unique aesthetic where a figure's leg indicates the hour and a rubber duck shows the minutes. Some owners report the blue nylon strap can be small in diameter. One reviewer noted the Milanese bracelet was too shiny and opted to brush it and the lugs for a more subdued look. The mechanical variant uses an STP1-11 automatic movement with a 44-hour power reserve and acceptable accuracy, while the quartz variant features a unique dial design with hour markers integrated into the watery visual. Overall, owners and reviewers rate Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon highly for its imaginative design and good value.
