Wild Planet Response:This is a great toy, especially considering the price! Glad he liked it.

I bought this for my nine year old son, he just loved it, but I made a mistake by letting him bring it to a birthday party, :( Someone took it, and so I'm getting another one for him, he was so upset (sad), as I was too.
It will be under the Christmas tree.

My grandson loved this watch because you wore it around your neck like a necklace. It had four buttons that he could push to open the compartments. He told me the next day that it was his favorite toy that he received. It really surprised me that he thought about that and could express it. It was great to get something in their age range that they both loved. I will be looking at your site for birthdays and next xmas. Thank you

This was a gift for my grandson's 5th birthday. When his mom said it was a pirate watch he quickly corrected her telling her it was a compass. He was so happy with it he took it with him to spend the night at his other grandma's. Also, I appreciated that the package arrived quickly, the presents were attractively wrapped and there were even some lolli-pops thrown in for an extra treat. Excellent service, excellent merchandise.

I worried that it was a little too old for my five year old grandson, but he loved it right off and could read the watch, which really works, and will learn how to use the compass.

Well, the battery for the watch was dead when it arrived. My granddaughter really likes the compass part & informs me of which way we are headed. She also likes the way it flips open. She's six.
