What people say

Mr Jones Watches Remixed A perfectly useless afternoon

Owners widely praise Mr Jones Watches Remixed A perfectly useless afternoon for its whimsical, art-piece design, lightweight comfort, and 38mm size, with some finding its quality commensurate with its sub-$300 price. The unconventional time-telling is noted as unintuitive but surprisingly not difficult to read, making it a fun conversation starter. Some owners report issues with the hour hand alignment and find the straps undesirable or the plug near 9 o'clock feels cheap, and a few question the overall build quality and 50m water resistance. Overall, owners rate Mr Jones Watches Remixed A perfectly useless afternoon highly for its unique dial design and refreshing aesthetic at a reasonable price.

Zelos Helica

Owners widely praise the Zelos Helica for its stunning, often color-shifting dials, with specific mentions of the MoP, slate grey, 'Steel Blue', and red opal variants being particularly captivating and artful. The 39mm case size is noted as fitting well on smaller wrists, and the overall build quality and finishing for the price are frequently highlighted as impressive, with one owner calling it "a lot of watch for the price." Some owners appreciate the novel bracelet designs and full lume dials, while others find the bracelet and clasp edges sharp or the clasp lacking on-the-fly adjustment. Opinions on the date window are mixed, with one owner disliking it. The Zelos Helica Moonphase was considered cluttered by one owner, and its $1K USD price point was felt to be steep by another, though popular variants sold out rapidly. Overall, owners rate the Zelos Helica highly for its striking dial designs and impressive value proposition.
