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.

Pagani Design PD-1736

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1736 for its tremendous value and stylish design, noting a deep blue sunburst dial, a solid Seiko NH39 movement, and tight stainless steel finishing. Some find the watch elegant and a great value at its price point, appreciating the blue to black fade dial and comfortable strap. However, community feedback flags several quality control issues, including sloppy or misaligned bezels, rough case finishing with sharp corners, and misaligned markers. The lume is consistently described as poor, and the strap, while comfortable for some, has been noted to tear with use and is considered stiff by others. The 24-hour subdial is deemed pointless by some owners, especially given the absence of a date window. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1736 highly for its appealing design and value, despite noted quality control inconsistencies.
