They are so inexpensive they are almost disposable. Much as I can see the practicality they are not my personal style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345368 Fri, 06 May 2011 18:15:41 +0000 rae 345368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the colors, but I'd prefer something more like a Toy knockoff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345351 Fri, 06 May 2011 17:34:16 +0000 Janet 345351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute, but not for me. My husband gave me a beautiful Philip Stein watch for Christmas that I now wear every day (changeable straps, yay!), and now I can't imagine wearing anything else, unless it was for running. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345349 Fri, 06 May 2011 17:31:03 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 345349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've seen one on the wrist of a 15yr old piano student of mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345256 Fri, 06 May 2011 14:56:07 +0000 Lynne 345256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They were really popular here last year and some of the mums at my school wore them and said they were fantastic. I don't care for the look of them so I wouldn't wear them myself, but all reports were that they were fine, functional wise. Lots of colour choices! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345218 Fri, 06 May 2011 13:46:45 +0000 cheryl 345218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they are super cute. Colorful and fun. I would definitely wear one, or two, or three lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345208 Fri, 06 May 2011 13:20:52 +0000 Queen Mum 345208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, I remember my son (17) came home with one of these from work a while back. They gave them to all of the employees so they could promote them...... he works at PacSun. That should give you an idea of who these watches are geared for.<br /> I'd still wear it to run in though.... because I'm not willing to part with my clothing money for a GPS watch </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345199 Fri, 06 May 2011 12:10:09 +0000 CocoLion 345199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is fun for much younger people, age 6 to 23. I would not wear it. I may have worn something like this when younger. I used to have some pretty bright Swatch watches in the 80s. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345191 Fri, 06 May 2011 10:48:42 +0000 krishnidoux 345191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't buy them because they look like something to wear when physically active; and when I am active I want my watches to fit tightly to my wrist and these do not. So what's the point? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345189 Fri, 06 May 2011 10:43:12 +0000 April 345189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A general truth for me is that if retailers are billing something as "fun," it's generally not my style. I think these would be in that category. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345143 Fri, 06 May 2011 04:34:33 +0000 Sylvie 345143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't wear one. I can't help but have the "rubber = toy/cheap/gear" association. I used to wear a "gear" watch many years ago but it had two timezones, a countdown timer and stopwatch.</p> <p>Now if you told me the watch had a built in gps or compass or altimeter or similarly useless technical function, I'd wear it in a heartbeat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345141 Fri, 06 May 2011 04:29:34 +0000 lyn* 345141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They were giving similar ones away with Geox shoes. My friend bought a pair of shoes and I was ++++ excited to get one, but apparently they were only for kids. So if I had one (free) I'd wear one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345139 Fri, 06 May 2011 04:28:08 +0000 Anonymous 345139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wouldn't wear one as they just aren't my style, but fine for others. I could see them being worn 2 or 3 at once or with the rubber bangle bracelets for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345098 Fri, 06 May 2011 02:21:25 +0000 Heather 345098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, but I would want to wear all them all at once. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345095 Fri, 06 May 2011 02:00:47 +0000 Mo 345095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guessed you wouldn't Angie. You already have lovely watches. I don't think I'll be trying them, either. As QM pointed out, it's best for workouts and I have a Mio for that that I love. But I would like a white watch now that I've seen many of you wearing them - especially for this season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345062 Fri, 06 May 2011 00:59:02 +0000 Angie 345062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have seen the watches and would not wear one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345024 Thu, 05 May 2011 23:11:22 +0000 Queen Mum 345024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd wear it for running, but that's about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345023 Thu, 05 May 2011 23:08:32 +0000 Patty 345023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've seen them in a bunch of stores but never have seen anyone wearing one. I think they're meant as a work out/gear watch. It'd be good for the garden! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345021 Thu, 05 May 2011 23:04:52 +0000 rosee 345021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>not bad... I'd wear it (but not buy it, only if someone gives me one). I like my 2 watches I have though and wouldn't want to not wear one of them to wear this instead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-colorful-watches-and-would-you-wear-one#post-345015 Thu, 05 May 2011 22:57:53 +0000 Mo 345015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was out at a store last week and spied these rubbery colorful sport watches. Has anyone seen these? What do you think? I kind of like the idea of having a quick colorful touch to casual looks but then I start to think they resemble all those rubber bracelets (aids, livestrong, cancer, etc) and I don't want to look like a billboard. Any thoughts on these? Have you seen them IRL on people? Am I hopelessly behind the times finding this to be a 'new' thing?
