How and what watch wud you buy for yr child ?
Few months ago to surprise my 11yo son, I bought him the casio F-91W (at about the same age my dad bought me my first watch, a Casio DB digital) and to my surprise he dislike & hate wearing it !
So I asked him about his ideal "watch" ? He had set his heart on an analog blue dial with the majestic arabic numeral 12 ! Strapped with a blue steel bracelet !! 😄.. so the great watch hunt began and finally I found him the Casio MTP ..
His eyes lit up with joy the moment he set sight on it; he had found his horological soulmate… he loves it .. my next task after this is to get the blue bracelet 😉..
moral of the story, never assume what kind of timepiece your child wud desire, they possess a world of imagination and ideas that can only be fathomed by their own whimsical hearts.
Now, dear Crunchers, I turn the question to you – what watch would you choose for your precious little ones, bearing in mind that this remarkable Casio MTP cost even less than the f91w !!
The boy has taste 😉 impressive.
Excellent, start 'em young. Don't have children myself, but if I did I'd go the same route you did initially. Nice one mate 👍🏻👍🏻

You know it was a good choice with the F-91 I think it's what we would buy ourselves if we were 11. But as you say kids are all different. I think for me, I would take him shopping and let him buy what he likes the most even if I had to bite my tongue.

Bonding is great although I go for total embarrassment when shopping myself, although on second thoughts this may put them off watches !😀
Adorable! And yes, Casio is a perfect brand for first watches, particularly with so many vintage-sized options. Plus there are so many styles to chose from and watches to grow into, and always affordable.
Timex's quartz-analaog Time Machines line is also great for really young kids - so small, cute and legible!
