CONs — What to Improve
The review would not be complete without indicating some of the downsides of the watch.
The 3atm water resistant does not make the watch suitable for activities such as swimming, fishing and other such activities that the kids could be involved in often. Such activities may cause damage to the watch. The velcro material used in making the straps is not as durable and as stylish as leather would be. Also, the straps come off from the clasps easily which can cause the watch to fall off easily which means damage.
