What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

AVI-8 Hawker Hunter Avon Chronograph

Owners widely report the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter's unique handless design with rotating discs is not easily legible but can be learned, and the 45mm case wears comfortably. One owner praises the leather strap and clasp as incredibly soft, while another flags the case, crown, and crystal fitment as lacking and feeling cheap, noting the mineral glass crystal will scratch easily. The Miyota automatic movement is considered trustworthy, though the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter is sometimes seen as having a design similar to other brands. On balance, owners appreciate the AVI-8 Hawker Hunter for its unique time-telling mechanism and comfortable wearability, despite some concerns about case finishing and crystal durability.

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.
