In my opinion the huge difference between this generation and all previous ones is that content is no longer vetted by anyone. It used to be that to put something in front of kids it had to approved by some sane adult. If a TV station marketed to children something that most parents would not approve they would face protests or maybe even legal action. On social media any asshole can post literally anything and millions of kids will consume it without any supervision.

I definitely don't love the look. There are tons of better looking watches but analog perpetual calendars are crazy expensive, classic digital watches are ugly and smart watches have to be charged regularly. The only other brand I was considering was Festina but their connected watches are huge. It's crazy but g-shock was the only thing I found that had digital date in dd/mm format and didn't have heart rate monitor.
After something like a year of searching I finally got:
- solar powered, I never have to charge or change battery
- analog face with digital date, no need to adjust the date every month but looks good
- date in dd/mm format
- no GPS, no heart rate monitor, no notifications
Couldn't find anything else that would tick those boxes.
