You MUST Say Something About This Watch! Mr Jones A Perfectly Useless Afternoon - Perth WAtch

[@davidnievesjr.9478]

That watch company really breaks from the norms. They are focused on conversation pieces more than horology. Very cool watches.

[@PerthWAtch]

Thanks for the comment - I think you’re right, although all the same the very different style and display methods do cover the very aspect of horology.

[@engelberthumpredinck3165]

horology is the conversation - this watch is a private joke to be enjoyed among friends in the know

[@dinner_workingsly]

I love it! This is a watch that I would absolutely wear....not often but for sure I’d wear it. Very fun and quirky watch, thanks Ivan! These are awesome to see in between “normal” watches.

[@PerthWAtch]

Thanks for that - glad you enjoyed the review :)

[@sobeit712]

It's so weird to see someone wearing sleeveless t shirt in Dec, until I realize it's summer in Australia.

[@PerthWAtch]

Yeah dude, summer over here :)

[@jorgegarrido758]

nice review. interesting concept behind the creation of the watch

[@PerthWAtch]

Thanks :)

[@dude28405]

That is a cool watch I’ve always liked it not sure if I’ll be picking one up it just doesn’t spin well enough for me but that’s a fun watch anyway

[@PerthWAtch]

Yeah spin factor is critical!

[@dude28405]

@@PerthWAtch that's why I watch your Channel I want to see what the spin rate is LOL

[@mikewysko2268]

The fun design and colors bring a smile to ones face. It's not something I would buy for myself but I enjoyed the review.

[@PerthWAtch]

Thank you for that :)

[@siegfriedeind1370]

Nice to see that you are willing to review out of box thinking watch design companies. I personally find this watch very cool 😎

[@PerthWAtch]

Yeah man, not the first such watch I’ve reviewed and certainly won’t be the last :)

[@m2pozad]

Every watch collection should include fun novelty pieces.

[@PerthWAtch]

Agreed!

[@MrEmbangweni]

like it. I am a fan of Mr. Jones Watch. I have The Last Laugh. Not a particularly good watch if you need to know the exact time, as the minute track numbers are quite small, but it is not at all about telling the time, so when I can, I do like to wear it.

[@PerthWAtch]

Yeah absolutely... their watches are not at all about telling the time precisely (or at a glance)... but they sure are good fun!

[@JohnBuckmaster-sw3wm]

It is a fun take on a modern time please… And with the Rhonda quartz i’m assuming it’s quite accurate… I guess the only problem I have with it is the 50 m water resist… As we know that doesn’t mean 50 m Of no worry water depth...With a swimming pool on the dial I’d like to see 100 m so the wearer could swim away! Thanks for the fun review…

[@PerthWAtch]

Thanks man - glad you enjoyed the video!

[@stylemylife]

How has it aged? I'm thinking of getting one and curious to know if it has stood well in 2yrs? (Since your video is 2yrs old) thank you☺️

[@PerthWAtch]

Runs fine… it doesn’t get a massive amount of wrist time but the quartz is reliable for sure.

[@stylemylife]

@@PerthWAtch thanks a lot for the reply! that's good to know. Ordered one 😊 and all the best on the channel!

[@jeb-zf4un]

What swatch should have been. I'm a big fan of Mr Jones watches and what they're doing. I am biased as they're british company. I enjoyed the video.

[@PerthWAtch]

Yeah I do love their work too!

[@أحمدالشمس-ق9ج]

Thanks for a nice review, I just got the number cruncher watch and I am so pleased with it. To my pet peeves : the lugs leave a small gap between the strap and the case, not too bad but maybe they can try a new case design. Secondly why so many limited editions? They had a very nice owl design I'd die to get my hands on it but they just made like 100 of them, it is a shame not more people could get a chance to enjoy them.

[@PerthWAtch]

Feed back to them about that case gap - I find they actually listen! The limited runs are probably because they are a small outfit and don’t have the capital to throw into each design... once successful however they tend to re-release I think.

[@أحمدالشمس-ق9ج]

@@PerthWAtch I surmised as much I gotta give it to them though they make limited edition but they also keep them with same price. Respect. Keep up the great work.

[@samuelball8775]

Good conversation starter that’s for sure. Not great for telling the time though haha looks good on the yellow silicone strap.

[@PerthWAtch]

Haha oh yeah man, absolutely not great if you want to be able to tell the time quickly!

[@Trex100]

Lovely. A true vacation watch.

[@PerthWAtch]

Yes :)

[@anwyntompkins]

What is this type of watch face called? I had a children's one with a ladybug on it long ago.

[@PerthWAtch]

No common name - it’s unique

[@rag_man673]

I love the quirkiness of this watch. And I would of even thought of buying one. But what even weirder than the dial is the 50 m water resist on a modern watch. Especially one with, well, water on the dial. I could easily see myself at a friends BBQ/party, in the pool during the hot summer...........just not with this watch. Shame. I do like the Number Cruncher watch and no expectations of getting that one wet so maybe? 🤔😜

[@PerthWAtch]

Haha yeah thanks for the thoughts. That one is sold out though I think...

[@infinitfootball9262]

But a 50m water resist is good right?

[@thomasont]

Hi Ivan, This is a comical watch that may put other high end fun complication watches to shame. Eg. Franck Muller Las Vegas Roulette and Crazy Hours watches. It would be entertaining if the watch just feature a duck theme. A mother duck for the hour hand with a smaller duck as the minute and a naughty duck for the second hand on a pond dial. Haha. Thanks for this funny review. Best regards Ivan.

[@PerthWAtch]

Hahah a duck watch would be fun indeed!

[@AlfredoRGuillen]

Caliber is a Ronda 513 three handed (seconds hand is not fitted) as two hand 512 caliber is not always available to Mr Jones Watches and has not the same torque.

[@PerthWAtch]

Interesting - what did I say in the video?

[@AlfredoRGuillen]

@@PerthWAtch The text on your video said 513 but you mentioned 515...so it is 513 as I asked Jones Watches recently....thanks for this great review.
