We know your pocket money is really important, so the last thing we want you to do is buy something with it that isn’t perfect. Well, you’ve done the hard part and saved up for a new watch and now we’re here to make sure you make the right choice when buying children’s watches online – whether the watch is for you or a friend.

Which watch style is right for me?
What do you like to do? Are you football mad and love running around in the park? Maybe you like nothing better than messing around in the mud with your mates. Or maybe you love getting lost in a world of your own in the latest books and video games. Try and think about things like these when you’re deciding what style of watch is right for you. It’s going to be on your wrist all day, so you want to make sure it fits in with what you might be doing.
Another good idea is to think about what you like to wear as you might want to get a watch that fits in with your clothes. There are lots of things to think about before finally buying your watch, but luckily for you we have lots of watches for you to choose from, so you’ll definitely find something that suits you.
How much should I spend on my first watch?
The amount of money you should spend on your first watch really depends on what kind of watch you’d like and how much money you have to spend. You’ll be happy to find out that we have watches like The Vibrant, for which you shouldn’t have to save for too long. You might even have enough Christmas or birthday money to buy one without having to save at all.
Do you already know how to tell the time? Then you might want one of our digital watches like The Resourceful, especially if you’re really sporty. We love the way the colour of the strap doesn’t quite match the colour on the inside of the watch face, making it really pop.
Ultimately, what’s most important when choosing a watch is do you like it? Can you imagine yourself wearing it? That’s all that really matters in the end. It’s your watch, after all.
Watches for boys
Now, while we’ve said that the watches below are for boys, there’s no reason why you can’t wear them if you’re a girl. If you like them, then wear them! The same goes for our girls watches and boys.
The Intelligent
The Intelligent is a great watch if you’re still learning how to tell the time because it has a simple face. The big stitching on the strap also makes it look really fun, especially if you choose a bright colour!

The Enchanted
Who says boys can’t like sparkly things? The Enchanted is delightfully shimmery and would look good on any wrist, especially in silver or blue.
