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 The Promise of Happiness

Mr Jones Watches The Promise of Happiness is praised for its unique, multilayered design featuring a jumping-hour complication and a painted tiger with scrolling minutes. The 37mm polished case with distinctive lugs is noted as comfortable for smaller wrists, though the 15mm thickness is considered substantial. Owners highlight its distinctiveness within the brand's lineup, fulfilling a desire for a jump-hour complication. Overall, owners rate Mr Jones Watches The Promise of Happiness highly for its unique jumping-hour complication and distinctive design.

Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph

Owners widely report a split on build quality, with some finding the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph's construction unimpressive due to issues like a poorly seated bezel and crooked indices, while others praise its robustness and aesthetic appeal. The unique dial features character hands and glowing eyes serving as subdials and a 24-hour indicator, though the chronograph function is limited to 60 minutes. On balance, the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph elicits divided opinions on its build quality, with its artistic dial design being a notable, albeit polarizing, feature.

From video reviewers

The Spinnaker Googly Black's notable strength is its reported water-resistance of 300 fathoms or 550 metres. A weakness of this watch is its lume brightness, which is somewhat lacking. Reviewers disagree on the watch's ideal size, with one reviewer noting its slimmed-down design and the other mentioning its overall size and 26+ millimeter thickness.
