Talk Talk – My Talking watch

I’ve just put on my talking watching again from the RNIB (Link below at end of post)

I haven’t worn it for a while as, to be honest, I was always conscious of it going off and speaking randomly on it’s own.

Laughing would ensue when my wrist would catch the buttons and it would tell me the date or the time. In a loud mans voice! ☺

Doesn’t matter which hand I have it on.

Now, I’m open to tell people why I have it on if it does got off booming the information.

I can see why people have laughed or made a comment.

I don’t look visually impaired. Unless you spend time with me and pick up on other idiosyncrasies that are now part of my nature.

If I need to see the time I’ve only got my phone. Which has a big clock on the homepage if it’s clicked closed. Fair enough. If it’s open it’s so small, can’t see it. So thought this would be very useful out and about.

The RNIB shop has lots to choose from. Kids, adults and tactile watches too.
