What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Glycine Airman GMT

Owners widely appreciate the Glycine Airman GMT's ability to track three time zones with an easy-to-read dial layout. However, some owners find the GMT hand visually similar to the minute hand, suggesting a red paint for better distinction, a sentiment echoed by reviewers who note the thin, unlumed GMT hand can be hard to read against the black dial. One owner praises the 39mm sizing and 200m water resistance of a related model, noting its good build and finishing from when Glycine was independent. On balance, owners and reviewers find the Glycine Airman GMT offers practical multi-time zone tracking, though legibility of the GMT hand is a recurring point of discussion.

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.
