Mr Jones Watches Unveil Ladies Version of ‘A perfectly useless afternoon’

    Mr Jones Watches, the watch brand known for fun and quirky watches, unveiled a lady’s version of one of its most popular watch designs: A perfectly useless afternoon. Designed by Belgium illustrator and author Kristof Devos this watch comes in a 31mm case.

    The watch face looks like a relaxing swimming pool, designed to encourage viewers to take a break. The legs of the character point to the hours, while the floating rubber duck shows the minutes.

    Kristof Devos was inspired by a quote by Chinese writer, translator, linguist and philosopher Lin Yutang when designing the watch: “If you can spend a perfectly useless afternoon in a perfectly useless manner, you have learnt how to live.”

    This watch now comes in three different variations and three different sizes: original (34mm), mechanical (37mm) and ladies (31mm).

    Arts in one place.
