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 Nuage

Owners widely praise the Mr Jones Watches Nuage for its unique dial, hand-gilded with 22-carat gold and palladium silver leaf, and its beautiful case with great lugs. Some owners find it a good value at $305 after tax and a stunning piece in sunlight. However, legibility, particularly at night, is questioned by some. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting consistent inaccuracy of 8-12 minutes behind, while others do not mention this. One owner expressed disappointment that a limited run became a continued production model, and some regret swapping the original strap. Overall, owners rate the Mr Jones Watches Nuage highly for its artistic dial and case finishing.

Vario 1918 Medic Brass

Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Medic Brass for its crisp enamel dial, easy-to-read numerals, and cathedral hands, noting the brass case develops an attractive patina over time. However, the soft brass scratches easily, and one owner found the lume to be poor. Accuracy varies, with one example running slow by about 10 seconds per day and another owner deeming the Miyota 82s5 movement just okay. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Medic Brass highly for its unique dial and the evolving character of its brass case.
