Timex TIME Machines® 35mm Camo Fast Wrap® Kids Digital Watch

This watch has great water resistance and lots of settings. My 9 year-old boy loves the comfortable, colorful strap and uses the light often. He likes how it can be set for two different times (in case we switch time zones), and regularly uses the alarm to know when to be home. Great purchase.

My youngest just started Middle School.He is a little one.The watch fits perfectly on his wrist on the first notch with another 9 notches to go.The watch is small and does not look like a monster rock on his wrist.I did not want to spend hundreds of dollars for a watch just for it to tell time while he switches between classes or to know when a class is almost over.It shows day of week, date, time with second, pm and alarm icon.It has one alarm and when it rings it is just loud enough to hear.I wish it had an option for another for a few alarms to set but it is not a show stopper.It has a stopwatch and you can set a second time when you are on vacation in another time zone.There is a button to turn on the light if you are in dark areas to luminate the display.So far after a month and half of use by my youngest, there is no damage or breakage with the wristband or watch unit itself.The most irritating thing is that I have to go online to download the manual.Including aquick start guide or printing the instructions on or inside the box would have been nice for initial setup.Remember it is water resistance and not water proof.That means do not dunk it in a bathtub full of water!

I bought this watch for my son a few years ago. He wore it non-stop, outside, in water, camping, all the time. It held up great. I think the band eventually wore out and we ended up getting him a sturdier band but honestly for the price and how long it lasted, it was great.I'm reviewing now because I"m looking for a similar watch for my daughter, but all the timex watches targeted to girls (and yes girls and boys can wear whichever colors they like -she's not going to want a camo watch) are analog. Why? We are fans of timex, I've been wearing timex watches for years and years, and am dumbfounded there is not a "girl" watch that is waterproof and digital. Ridiculous! Super bummed about this. Please get some digital watches for young girls who don't know how to read clocks yet!
