Once upon a time children were proud to tell time on their own. This just-for-kids watch will help them on their way, so they can live happily ever after…and on time.
The Timex T89042 Youth watch is reliable, durable, and readable in the dark, but it's also flat-out fun to wear. This quartz analog watch features an easily readable, full Arabic numeral display and smaller 5-minute notations on the outside of the dial. It also has a small butterfly that rotates around the dial with the hands, and a comfortable elastic fabric strap (for better dirt and stain resistance) with pink, yellow and blue hearts and butterflies against an indigo base. This watch also offers water resistance to 30 meters (99 feet), durable bright fuschia resin case, different colored hour and minute hands, and Timex's unique Kids Loss Protection Plan. It's recommended for children ages 6 and older.
Timex understands that kids often lose things, even their most prized possessions, which is why this watch is covered by the Timex Kids Loss Protection Plan. If the watch is lost, Timex will replace it with the same style (or similar if your style is not available) at the price of $10 for up to one year from the original date of purchase, with no questions asked. Details are included in the printed instructions that come with the watch.
Casio
With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market.
Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, atomic timekeeping means the users never have to reset the time. Recently, Casio launched a series of Bluetooth watches that sync to the users cell phone to automatically update the time. Casio is always moving time forward.

It's been really durable and reliable. It's gotten knocked around, dropped, lost, found, dunked in tub and sink water, left out in the sun and rain, driven over with toy cars, you name it. And it still works, and she still loves it. Wears it all the time. It keeps good time, it's easy to read, and it's cute. For little girls learning to tell time who want a watch of their very own, this is a pretty good starter.
Retired landscaper here. Over the years, I've periodically bought cheap children's watches to keep in my pocket while working. I have no idea what their longevity could have been; invariably I've lost them somewhere among the vegetation. Many times, I could find them but eventually my luck ran out and I needed a replacement.Now that I'm retired, I wanted one for my own garden work. I am optimistic that it won't get permanently lost and will likely outlive me. We shall see. Everything is as was advertised. It's nice to look at analog clocks. And it is a Timex so all is well.
My 5 yr old loves this watch and she learned how to tell time so fast!
