Do You Wear A Mickey Mouse Watch?

Do you own a Mickey Mouse watch? It doesn't matter how old you are, or when you got it--even grown men are wearing them!

I have had mine for almost 19 years straight now! For my 12th birthday (25 April 1987), my parents gave me a beautiful Lorus quartz Mickey Mouse watch.
Mom found it at our hometown jeweller's; he recommended it--saying grown men were wearing them, too! It has the Walt Disney Productions trademark on the bottom of the face.

This is definitely an analogue Mickey Mouse watch--his arms are actually the minute and hour hands.

Originally, the watch came with a leather(?) strap, but since my arms are so skeletally thin, my parents had the jeweller replace it with a metal stretch-band. To this day, I have NEVER had to lengthen or adjust the band!

My Mickey Mouse watch still faithfully tells the time to this day. Once every 3 years I replace the battery, but that's all. This watch has seen me through quite an eventful life, and has travelled all over (including the Atlantic many times) with me.

I plan to keep this watch for the rest of my life--why replace a perfectly good watch! Besides, it's my trademark--I am well known for it.

Perhaps something you might want to keep to yourself...

 rotfl  Oh dear...

Ok, I'll confess: I got a pink Mickey Mouse watch for Christmas. It's not the usual watch in which Mickey's arms tell the time; this one has standard minute and hour hands, and Mickey's face is on the background.

I'll confess again: I wear it almost every day. In fact, I'm wearing it right now.  Silly

I purchased one from Disney in Orlando when we went in 1999. I wore it for a few weeks then someone nicked it when I was doing P.E at school  Sad.
