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 K9

Owners widely report the Mr Jones Watches K9 is a fun, quirky, and unique artistic piece that serves as a conversation starter, with some noting reliable movements and solid customer support. However, some owners found the build quality lacking, reporting issues with misaligned hands and needing to return their watches multiple times, while others find them difficult to read and question the value at full price. On balance, owners view the Mr Jones Watches K9 as a well-made artistic statement, with its unique design being the primary draw despite potential readability and build quality concerns.

Phoibos Leviathan

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Leviathan for its excellent value, superb case finishing, and generous lume. The watch is described as visually striking, legible, and well-made, with a unique case design, sapphire crystal, and a comfortable FKM strap or excellent bracelet with a milled clasp and quick adjustments. Some owners note the bezel's staggered jimping can cause fingers to slip, and the beveled crystal can distort the view of indices. Accuracy varies, with one owner reporting losing 5-10 seconds per day without a winder, while others state it keeps accurate time out of the box. The watch is frequently described as heavy and thick, with some owners finding it too large for wrists smaller than 7.5 inches, although newer models feature an improved clasp for better comfort and functionality. Overall, owners rate the Phoibos Leviathan highly for its striking design and impressive finishing at an accessible price point.
