What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

NOMOS Glashütte Metro 33 all silver

The NOMOS Glashütte Metro 33 all silver is praised for its beautiful, sub-8mm thin case and three-hand movement with power reserve and date complications. However, its dial can appear darker than in photographs, and the lack of a quick-set date is noted as an inconvenience for frequent watch rotation. Some find the hour and minute hands too similar for easy time-reading, particularly in low light due to the absence of lume. Overall, owners appreciate the Metro 33 all silver for its elegant design and slim profile, despite minor legibility concerns.

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.
