ICE-WATCHIce Ola kids Fairy tale - Girl's Wristwatch With Silicon Strap - 014430 (Small)

Very bright watch strap - which is why I bought it! I'm in the 'older person' category that another reviewer thought wouldn't like this sort of thing, how wrong can he/she be! I wanted something to wear particularly in the winter, to raise my spirits as I get depressed at this time of the year. I'd wondered if it would be the right size, and thought a child's watch would fit - and I was right. I have very small hands and wrists, and there are still several holes left on the strap.Pros: nice bright watch, fits well, very flexible.Cons: it's not quite the colour shown on the screen in the listing. I know full well that screens differ in colour but there were a couple of different views of it, one bright, one dimmer, thought it might be a cool pink and it's hot. Also the pink numbers and the hands are in a rather salmony-pink in comparison and, for my eyes, don't give as much in the way of contrast.I find it strange really that this is a watch for children as the face size and surrounding area is quite large.

This is a little expensive at £50, but it would make a good present.Girls will love the colour – shocking pink, except for the two loops on the strap and the buckle, which are baby pink (a good contrast). They will also like the soft feel of the strap, which has a little bit of stretch.In style, it is somewhere between a Swatch and an old-school Timex. It has a big, friendly dial with the actual numbers 1 to 12, so it’s perfect as a girl’s first watch.The watch is integral with the strap, i.e. there aren’t two separate pieces of strap fitted to the lugs. This looks good, and is very comfortable to wear, but might be hard to replace if the strap gets broken (as is likely with a child’s watch).There are eight holes in the strap, allowing for several years’ growth. In fact, it can be worn by a woman - my wife tried it, and there were several holes worth of spare left – though older women would find it too young a style.

I don’t know why this is described as a “kids” watch, it’s got exactly the same dimensions as my wife’s ICE watch, unless it’s because of the numbers (my wife’s watch is plain). And also, it says “small”, but if it was any bigger it wouldn’t fit my wife (she’s got thin wrists).In fact, despite the bubblegum pink colour (hot pink, as my wife describes it) this is a lovely watch and it has the same silky soft silicon strap, which happily matches my wife’s work-out gear and winter PJs… so it looks very much like there’s no chance any kids will be getting her new watch!

Very difficult to open this fuchsia and ice pink presentation box. You need to squeeze the clear inner plastic to release the box - not easy and frustrating. This presentation box turns into a money box as the ice pink bar on the top of the box slides out quite easily. A very pretty watch striking in fuchsia and ice pink lettering face. A fashionable item. Three stars because it is marketed as a kids watch and the presentation box is for adults to open only.

This is a beautifully presented quality watch for children.The pink in reality is intense but not as garish as in the photo. The face is easy to read but of course at this age, the trend factor is the most important and this watch is proper trendy :-)It reminds me a little of the swatch watches of my childhood.

You ain't gonna lose this watch. Its PINK. Very pink. Incredibly pink.The watch is pink as is the face.But if you are a little 'un who likes pink then this watch will be loved.Its lightweight and very wearable.Its just so PINK
