I've gotten more compliments on this watch than on any other watch I own. And not just from a single demographic -- I've gotten comments from businessmen, women in their 20s, children, men who look like criminals, middle-aged women, women with Chanel purses, and hipsters. It's seemingly universally liked. It's a fun, colorful watch, and if it breaks? Hey, it was $14. It had a good run.

I've had this for about a year and it's still ticking just fine. It's never let me down. The clasp works fine, most of the time. Sometimes it's come loose for no reason. One of the yellow connecty parts it came with doesn't like to connect so I have to use another color, but that's OK.

If you're giving it to a kid, it probably is too flimsy if they're the klutzy, oblivious type. It's more novelty than anything else -- it's not going to be the most durable watch out there. I don't think it'll last a year on a child's wrist. But if they already have so many Legos you can't buy them anymore, they'll probably like this (and I'm betting so will anyone else you buy it for).
