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 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.

Mr Jones Watches The Accurate

Mr Jones Watches The Accurate is noted for its unique dial featuring the "Remember you will die" message, which some find legible but prone to showing dust specs. The 45mm case size is considered suitable for modern wearers, though the watch's message may be polarizing. On balance, reviewers acknowledge the watch's distinctive artistic approach and the Miyota 9015 movement, but its legibility and polarizing message are points of consideration.

From video reviewers

The watch's enduring popularity and its status as a consistent top seller are frequently mentioned. The lack of lume is a notable drawback, especially considering the price.
