They do make interesting watches https://eu.mrjoneswatches.com/collections/all-watches
I have no idea of they are any good
Personally, I’d want better specs for those prices. However, I’m more of a watch nerd than an art/design nerd. I wouldn’t know how to put a price on the art of those designs. Hopefully they’re built well.
What kinds of specs do you look for, as a watch nerd?
So, using this model as an example:
Single jewel quartz mechanism
For $300, that’s a bit of a turn-off. I’d prefer a mechanical movement — even a cheap-but-reliable Seiko
NH35(edit: maybe the no-date NH38) movement would do.There are some nice quartz movements that might be acceptable too, but if they don’t specify which movement it is, then it’s probably not great.
It has a sapphire crystal, which is pretty much expected at that price range (though Seiko is still a bit behind on this), so it seems kinda odd not to specify which movement is in there.
Aside from the specs, I suppose the rest comes down to build/finish quality, which is hard to gauge without seeing it in person.
€285.00! No thanks.
Really don’t need something to make me more depressed, thanks.
😁 You will be less depressed if you realize that life is but a joke with a very short time line. Enjoy it the best that you can. Write down a list of what is depressing you and then consider in the near future you, and the rest of us, will be dead and everything on your list meant nothing
