What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Dan Henry 1963

Owners widely praise the Dan Henry 1963 for its attractive vintage aviation look, precise dial printing, sunken sub-dials, sandwich dial construction, domed crystal, and well-executed case finishing, all at an astonishing price point. The chronograph button action is described as satisfying, and the 40mm size is noted as easy to read and versatile. However, some owners found the stock strap disappointing and replaced it. The lume is described as terrible, and the 12-click bezel could offer better resistance. Opinions are mixed on the perceived case quality, with some finding it cheap and lacking a "solid" feel, while others appreciate its mixed finish and slimmer profile. Some question the utility of the 24-hour sub-dial chronograph movement. Overall, owners rate the Dan Henry 1963 highly for its exceptional value and vintage aesthetic.

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.
