Title: Your kids first watch, analog or digital .... ?
Post by: kenixck on October 16, 2013, 06:46:27 AM
do you get your kids an analog or digital watch for their 1st time-keeping lesson ?
(irregardless of price)

not for fashion, but when you feel that they are ready to tell time / learn about time.

 :Cheers:

Analog.. Because my daughter, in her kindergarten learn how to tell time using the big rounded paper with a smiling clock face with movable 2 hands (hour and minute hand). So, I get her the analog watch for continous learning at home. It is also have to be quartz, to teach her appreciate time with ticking of the second hand.

Analog quartz (Flik Flak) for the little ones and Seiko automatic for the teen. Those Flik Flak are quite hardy indeed! Now my kids will point out watch shops when we pass them. WIS in the making..  ;D

I started mine with Baby G when she's six.
Slowly got her interested in watches.
Her first mechanical is a Swatch Skeleton. 
Now in her 3rd year in Med School,she told me her first watch that she's gonna get is Frank Muller Crazy Hours. :thumbsup:

Obviously you guys are not in the same uni.
I don't get the,"no watch,no doctor" part.
Care to enlighten?

Bought a decent quartz analog flik-flak (from Swatch) for my kids. There are minute markers for them to learn albeit very small.

My parents got me something similar to this model back in my high school days in the 90s. The "light" function sends waves of WHAO FACTOR throughout the entire classroom. Got so fond of it that I wore it to bed, for showers and even doing "the business".

But then...I also had "that moment when another dude in class came in with a G-Shock". DANG!!!

Those were the days. LOL!

A brief story of my 2 kids watches. I got my 2 kids casio electronic watches years ago but one lost it in play school because the strap is too big.  :Laughing_on_floor: and the other watch was :HammerHead:  :Jumping: by the sister.

My boy started wearing the el-cheapo RM5 watches from Daiso Japan- I never bothered changing the batteries, when they ran out, I'll just buy another one (it's cheaper than replacing the battery really). Then I got him a Thomas and Friends peek-a-boo watch from Japan, and he started to take a liking to watches. Now, when he goes out, he sometimes want to pick a G-Shock from some of those in my watch cabinet. Imagine a hefty G-Shock on the wrist of a 5-year old; but somehow, he likes it!  ;D
