I can't seem to find an waterproof analog watch for a 6 year old boy.

Anyone?

The teacher in me doesn't want a digital watch but analog Ines seem to not be waterproof.

Thanks

The G-Shock G-101 is cheap and readily available:

Thanks Jamie.

I posted after my wife told me that there weren't any as opposed to looking properly.

There are lots!

Thanks

Posted too soon.

So many say things like "50m waterproof, not for submersion"

Countzero - for a child.

What about Swatch, or Flik Flak, their children’s range. They’re all waterproof and over the years I’ve worn Swatches showering, swimming (including, occasionally on slides etc) and canoeing. If Flik Flak are too childish, then some of the ladies' or smaller ones from the men’s range might do? And the user replaceable battery is a nice touch.

Thanks all.

My wife (and I) were getting confused between advice on Bar 'certification' on certain websites compared to others.

The Swatch says its 3 Bar can be swum in and machine washed at 40c. Other advice is that isn't even showerproof.

Citizen says my watch can be snorkeled with yet other general watch advice says swimming is a gamble.

Swatch it is. Especially as they do a nice Spiderman watch.
