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.

Sinn U50 HYDRO SDR with TEGIMENT option

The Sinn U50 HYDRO SDR with TEGIMENT option is widely praised for its exceptional scratch resistance and legibility, with owners reporting no signs of wear after extended use. The oil-filled case contributes to extreme water resistance and a clear dial, while the fully tegimented construction offers a soft feel on the wrist. Reviewers note the compact 41mm size, though one owner found it did not wear as thin as expected due to its thickness. The lume is considered underwhelming by some, and the diving extension on the clasp can release too easily. It utilizes a quartz movement, which is noted as less accurate than previous thermo-compensated options. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sinn U50 HYDRO SDR with TEGIMENT option highly for its robust, legible, and virtually indestructible build at its price point.
