What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon: mechanical

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon: mechanical is widely praised for its creative and original design, making it a fun conversation starter and a well-made watch for its price point. Owners appreciate the vibrant colors and quality packaging, with one reviewer noting the 40mm case dimensions and elegant lugs. The Swiss STP1-11 movement is reported to have acceptable accuracy. Some owners, however, find the Milanese bracelet too shiny, while the nylon strap may be small in diameter for some wearers. On balance, owners and reviewers rate Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon: mechanical highly for its unique design and good value.

Tissot PR 100

Owners widely praise the Tissot PR 100 for its excellent value, with specific mentions of its sapphire crystal, 100m water resistance, and the 80-hour power reserve of its Powermatic 80 movement. Reviewers and owners consistently highlight its pleasing winding action and strong lume. Accuracy figures for the Powermatic 80 COSC variants are reported as -2 seconds per day or +/- 1-2 seconds per day. Some owners note that the crystal attracts fingerprints and that the black finish on some bracelets can wear off after extended daily use. A single owner of a quartz model experienced a recurring issue where the watch stopped for periods weekly, which was not resolved by a battery replacement. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Tissot PR 100 highly for its exceptional value and robust features, particularly its durable construction and reliable movements.
