What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Fortis Marinemaster M-40

Owners praise the Fortis Amber Orange for its gorgeous appearance and strong wrist presence, noting its crazy lume and 70-hour power reserve. The Doxa SUB 300T, described as having a superb, eccentric design with a highly legible dial and functional no-decompression bezel, uses an ETA 2824-2 movement. However, the SUB 300T's 42.5mm case wears large and its 14mm thickness is not ideal for dress shirts, though it boasts 1,200m water resistance. On balance, owners appreciate the Fortis Amber Orange for its striking aesthetics and impressive lume.

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.
