The domed Hesalite crystal may exhibit distortion. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Lorier Hydra SIII highly for its feature set and value proposition in a travel-diver format.

Mr Jones Watches The Silent Thief is widely praised for its unconventional and artistic design, featuring detailed artwork and a unique magpie's eye seconds indicator. Owners appreciate the automatic STP or Sellita SW200 movement and the surprisingly good build quality for the price. The 45mm case is generally considered well-proportioned, with normal lugs addressing prior concerns about length, although some still find the 53mm lug-to-lug measurement substantial or the 45mm size too large overall. Legibility is noted as not the highest, and lume is absent on the indices. On balance, owners and reviewers rate Mr Jones Watches The Silent Thief highly for its superb, unconventional design and good value.
