Mr Jones Watches The Silent ThiefvsZelos Blacktip 41

Mr Jones Watches The Silent Thief is widely praised for its unconventional and artistic design, featuring detailed artwork and a unique magpie's eye seconds indicator. Owners appreciate the automatic STP or Sellita SW200 movement and the surprisingly good build quality for the price. The 45mm case is generally considered well-proportioned, with normal lugs addressing prior concerns about length, although some still find the 53mm lug-to-lug measurement substantial or the 45mm size too large overall. Legibility is noted as not the highest, and lume is absent on the indices. On balance, owners and reviewers rate Mr Jones Watches The Silent Thief highly for its superb, unconventional design and good value.

The Zelos Blacktip 41 is widely praised for its exceptional quality and value, featuring a titanium case, sapphire crystal, and a reliable Miyota 9015 movement. Owners and reviewers highlight its well-proportioned 41mm case with strong ergonomics, a 47.5mm lug-to-lug, and a 11.5mm thickness, making it a comfortable diver for many. The watch boasts eye-catching dials with grained textures and degrade effects, complemented by large applied indices, a lume-filled crown, and strong two-tone lume. The bezel action is described as having firm clicks with a slight return. The Miyota 9015 movement provides near-COSC accuracy and a 200m water resistance. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Zelos Blacktip 41 highly for its superb value and well-executed dive watch features at its price point.
