S02E11: The First Watch (Kids and Teens): Flik Flak, Sher, Blok, Mini Kyomo, Casio, Baby-G, Times, Freestyle, Vintage

DESCRIPTION

The hardest watch you’ll ever buy is the first one you give a kid. This bonus episode is for parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and godparents who want to hand a small person a real watch and do it right. We start with an uncomfortable fact (most young people can’t read an analog clock anymore), make the case for why that skill still matters, then shop every budget: Flik Flak, Sher, Blok, Mini Kyomo, the unkillable Casio F-91W, Baby-G, Timex Easy Reader, Freestyle Shark, and Swatch. Plus the move nobody expects for teenagers: vintage quartz Seiko and Citizen, cooler and cheaper than another smartwatch. People first, as always. I’m Watchovski.
