What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMT

The Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMT is widely praised for its stunning dial execution, COSC-certified Kenissi WERK 13 movement with a 70-hour power reserve, and legible Brixtrack luminous indices. Owners and reviewers highlight the surprisingly wearable 43mm titanium case and bracelet, noting its lightness and comfort despite the size, with one source specifically mentioning a quick-adjustable extension. The watch offers 200m water resistance and features a Synchroline indicator. However, some owners note the titanium scratches easily and the bracelet can be difficult to size. The watch is priced at €4,500. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMT highly for its purpose-focused pilot's watch design and innovative movement.

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon

Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon is widely praised for its creative, fun, and original design, with reviewers and owners alike highlighting its vibrant colors and ability to serve as a conversation starter. The watch is considered well-made for its price, featuring a unique aesthetic where a figure's leg indicates the hour and a rubber duck shows the minutes. Some owners report the blue nylon strap can be small in diameter. One reviewer noted the Milanese bracelet was too shiny and opted to brush it and the lugs for a more subdued look. The mechanical variant uses an STP1-11 automatic movement with a 44-hour power reserve and acceptable accuracy, while the quartz variant features a unique dial design with hour markers integrated into the watery visual. Overall, owners and reviewers rate Mr Jones Watches A perfectly useless afternoon highly for its imaginative design and good value.
