breo Bag Buddy: Review

Not too long ago I got offered the chance to review a breo Bag Buddy, little did I know when I accepted that chance, just how useful this little watch would be. Coming in four colour choices the bag buddy costs just £15 and is definitely a watch with a difference.

breo Bag Buddy is the perfect watch for those who don’t like to wear them around their wrists, it simply loops around the strap of your bag and shows not only the time but also the date. Each Bag Buddy comes with a battery included, which is said to last for around 2 years and is easily replicable by any watch battery fitter, when it does finally give up, each one is made from a lightweight, durable, soft-touch rubber and are waterproof for up to 5ATM.

Personally I’ve been really surprised by just how quickly I have come to rely on my breo Bag Buddy, I was sure once I had looped it on my bag that I would forget about it and end up scrabbling around for my phone to get the time, but as it is always there jumping out at me when I reach for the zipper of my bag, I am quickly reminded that I don’t need to spend ages searching for my phone, which has of course yet again migrated to the bottom of handbag and instead just take a quick glance at the watch on my bag.

As well as it’s intended use on handbags, I can also see this being immensely useful when swimming, I’m lucky at my local pool as there is a large clock on the wall, but when away on holiday, with no idea where the nearest clock is and knowing you need to be somewhere at a certain time, I can see the breo Bag Buddy (or should that be swimming buddy) being a really useful item to have looped around the strap of your swimming costume.

I’ve had my breo Bag Buddy attached to my bag and believe me I am not gentle with anything, with my handbag probably getting some of the most harsh treatment around, as I am forever throwing it about as well as Ash often stepping on it when I forget to throw it onto the back seat of the car as he is climbing in to the car wearily after work and my Bag Buddy? Well it has stood up to it all and more )including some very heavy rain showers, although thankfully short) and it is still looking more or less as good as new, with no obvious scratches or marks.

breo Bag Buddy has to be the perfect addition to anyone’s collection, especially if they don’t like wrist watches, love swimming or any sort of exercise as the weight would make it perfect to loop onto joggers, without it weighing them down. In fact I’m sure I will be using mine on more occasions as the year progresses.
