What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

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.

NOMOS Glashütte Orion neomatik champagne

Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Orion neomatik champagne's in-house automatic movement and thin 9.5mm profile, with some finding its timekeeping comparable to COSC-certified watches. The champagne dial color scheme is frequently highlighted as fantastic. However, one owner notes that the largest size appears off due to proportions or the date window, and the crown reportedly rolls back slightly when winding, a trait described as normal. Some owners suggest the Orion neomatik offers better value at a discount. Overall, owners rate the NOMOS Glashütte Orion neomatik champagne highly for its excellent dress watch proportions and attractive champagne dial at its price point.
