This was a great tool for teaching my children how to tell time. Too many kids can only read digital numbers; you give them an analog watch or clock and they're lost. I bought this for my five year old son. He learned very quickly how to tell time on it. He wore it 24 hours a day in the pool, sledding, running and playing. The lens got pretty scratched up and the wrist band stretched some, but it was a great watch... until he lost it. I would strongly recommend this watch for young children.

We ordered this watch and it's so cool! Great design and function. Safe for kids ( the strap is flexible & elastic) The vendor was prompt to ship and the service overall was excellent.

I bought this watch some time ago and my 9-year old loves it. The design of the watch is interesting...instead of a second hand, its a clear circular plastic disc with gecko designs on it, so that as it turns, the geckos rotate around the watch face. Some months after I bought it, that disc must have loosened and came off. I emailed ProSport Watches and they sent a new watch together with a postage paid envelope for me to return the old one in - what an outfit! The new one works fine and my daughter was delighted all over again!

We love the watch. It's totally adjustable, press the button for glow-in-the-dark feature. The two lizards "chase" each other around the watch. Too cute.

My 8 year old loves hers, and best of all "it's not too girly!"

very cute but useless as a teaching watch due to the fact that the size of minute (not hour) numbers are too small to see.

I saw this on a child who was in my office with his mom. It was perfect for my niece Miriam, who loves reptiles, dinosaurs and the color green! I picked up a second watch for her best buddy, Jack. Both kids seemed to really like their watches. I have a reputation for picking good stuff! This is sure to keep me at the top of the list of "best gift givers" among my friends and family.

My son lost this recently and requested the same thing - he wouldn't have any other watch! The quality is comfortable and excellent.

I usually give things the benefit of the doubt but this watch is terrible! My son recieved it from me for his birthday in May. Within a month there was water condesation in the face. He is quite careful too and tries to remember to remove it when showering, swimming, etc so this SHOULD NOT have happened. Then last week we noticed the band kept slipping, causing the watch to fall off of his arm. Well now, not even 2 months later, it has stopped running all together. Please save your money and don't buy this watch. If you will want this one though check out Target bc they have it for only $15 plus no shipping.

My daughter loves lizards so she loves this watch. However, we are on our second one because the first one got water bubbles in it after about a year and slowly corroded. I checked the water resistance claim by Timex and they say it is waterproof down to 10 meters. Well, it is not! The second watch got bubbles in it after the first dip in the pool. It took almost a month for the water to finally evaporate. Suffice it to say, my daughter takes her watch off before swimming now. Next watch will be one that is really waterproof since my daughter is a swimmer.
