Mr Jones Watches RicochetvsTissot Telemeter 1938

Mr Jones Watches Ricochet is celebrated for its unique art style and conversational appeal, featuring a gold-leaf foiling technique and a jumping hour display. Owners note that reading the time can be a petite experience due to the small display size and the 5-minute increment minute hand can be imprecise for exact time-telling. The TY2709 movement is not known for reliability, though the brand offers good warranty support. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate Mr Jones Watches Ricochet as a fun, visually compelling art piece with conversational appeal.

The Tissot Telemeter 1938 is widely praised for its vintage-inspired aesthetic, handsome dial finishing, and value as a mechanical chronograph. Owners and reviewers highlight its balanced dial, the "old-looking" vintage logo, and the attractive two-tone dial variations. The Valjoux A05.231 movement is noted for its 68-hour power reserve, though one owner describes its feel as "alive" and "like its engine." The double-sided anti-reflective coating and the way sunlight interacts with the hands are also appreciated. However, the 42mm case size is frequently cited as being too large for a retro-inspired watch, with many wishing for a smaller option, and its 30-meter water resistance is considered poor. The pusher feel is described as sharp, though slightly stiff, and one reviewer found the Tissot branding on the dial and crown excessive.
