Pretty but leather is mildewed.
I read the reviews but took a chance that the one I received would not smell mildewed. Oh my!! It stinks to high heaven!!! And it is too small for my wrist…another chance I took.
Instead of returning it, I’m going to try and replicate it using the watch and dangles with ribbon and cords.
It was wrapped very tightly in bubble wrap. Perhaps the leather would not have mildewed if it had been able to breathe. Boy! Does it stink!!!!!

Snap closure watch.
Not the best quality or materials but remember, it’s extremely inexpensive.

Nice accessory for anyone to wear, goes well with any style
Durable material makes it easy to slip onto any wrist (plus, adjustable strap, so there's that too). The fact that the watch actually WORKS is an added point, considering most of these out there have the clock as a graphical enhancement rather than an actual working point to the piece.
The title of the item says for girls, but whoever you are out there, wear it despite what it says. These sorts of accessories are multi-person usage. It looks cool with any outfit design, too.

Cute! Poor battery.
This is super super cute. I love the layered bangle look and the hanging charm and the dainty little watchface. It's very comfortable to wear. I knock it down a star because the battery it came with only lasted 3 months - I know it was an inexpensive watch, but I was disappointed with the battery life.

Cute, but too small
It's cute, but kinda cheaply made, and it doesn't fit my wrists. So, I gave them to my niece. She loves them. (This one and a similar one that I bought)
