Review on 🏊 Waterproof Digital Sport Watch for Kids – Girls & Boys, LED Outdoor Sports Watch with Alarm, Stopwatch & Luminous Display, Child Wristwatch by Jeff Leu

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good quality, confusing directions, easy to press buttons

I needed a waterproof watch because every time my kids buy a watch from the store they die the first time they wash their hands. The silicone on them is easy to keep clean and is truly waterproof. The time seems to keep well (the ones we got from the stores seem to keep changing the time, but that could be due to a handwashing issue), despite the buttons being pressed all the time. I like the watch but there are two complaints. I bought 3 for my 3, 4 and 6 year olds. It fit everyone and even had to buy a 4th because my 1 year old wanted to wear it too. It suits him too. This will suit them for years to come. Of all 4, 1 had a defect. The top line of the last digit did not always appear. I received the exchange with no problems and the old one seemed fixed when I received the new one, but I still returned the old one just in case. Another complaint I have is that the buttons just keep pressing when their wrists flex. So I need to help my 6 year old to make sure he is in the correct time mode. She's the only one who actually uses them to tell the time, but all kids love watches, right? I also think that a clock is the perfect way to teach numbers because once she's learned a few numbers she'll want to tell you the time every five minutes and then learn the two-digit numbers in a fun way. The directions are a bit confusing. It goes into time reading mode. The buttons go A-top left, B bottom left, C bottom right, D top right. A changes the color of the light. Hold it until it reaches the color you want, then release it and each time you press it it will light up that color. My 1 year old LOVES this feature. B changes mode. To set the time, press B three times, press D to change the flashing digit and C to move to the next digit to be changed. I think it starts with the minutes flashing, then the hours (through AM, then PM, then military time and back to AM), then set the day, then press B again to go back to normal. That's the confusing part - turning off the alarm and turning off the hourly chime. IN NORMAL MODE (You know it's normal when only one day of the week is displayed) To turn off the alarm, hold C and then press D. If the small alarm icon is visible, it's on. If not, then disabled. I personally set an alarm for off times, like when we're getting ready for bed, so if it goes off while my daughter is at school, it doesn't go off during school or at night. Hourly time signal, press and hold C, then press B. You must press C first, otherwise the mode you see will change. When all days of the week are displayed the Hourly Time Signal is on, when none are on it is off. I would buy this watch again. The kids love it, it seems like it will last a long time and it's waterproof. I wish the light stayed on longer just because my 1 year old can't push it but he loves it when it's on and I wish the view mode was harder to change so I don't have to keep switching it back to normal must reset mode. . However, I will say that no matter how many times this button has been accidentally pressed, I have yet to correct the actual time setting.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and chunky
