You know, those stiff, colorful bracelets that you were obsessed with in the early '90s and you had a hot pink glitter one, and a leopard print one, and a shiny lime green one that the plastic was coming off of? And you'd slap them on and off so many times that your wrist would turn red, so then you'd chase your siblings around trying to slap it on them, hoping that your wrists would heal so you could once again slap them on yourself?
Ya, I knew you remembered them.
Well, how 'bout a watch that holds all the good time slappin' and none of the bad time pain?

What I'd like to know is, how often do those generators pick number one? :) Oh well...
I'm obsessed with orange right now, buuuuut I think I'd go with black just because I'm boring like that.
My favorite thing about the 90's? How my mom and all my friends' moms wore bright colored nail polish. (Okay, I was six years old. That's all I remember.) They just don't wear it anymore, which is weird since it looked so nice. *RAMBLING ALERT*
Ha, I never wore any of those.. I guess I'm too young? or live too far north? But I love the cute watches! I'd go with white I think.
My favorite thing about the 90's would be the kids's TV-shows - I grew up with them and love them, even though they're mostly crap.
Purple! The gray is nice too, but I'm on a purple kick. My favorite part about the 90s was all the boy bands, and the panic over Y2K (late 90s, I know)
i love the grey! my favorite thing of the 90's was the tv programs and music. so great!
Gray, just because it's neutral but not too harsh either way ;] Hmm the 90s, the 90s. I really loved those stirrup leggings,not gonna lie. As well as all of the awesome television shows!
This is such an amazing giveaway!! I miss Pinky and the Brain from the 90's. best. show. ever. I have no idea which color is my favorite my top 3 are grey, purple, and blue.
The grey is perfect! The 90's, gosh...I love it all. I miss grunge, leggings, tying your shirt to the side, scrunchies and the tv shows...holy TV shows. My So Called Life, Rocko's Modern Life, Dinosaurs, Boy Meets World, X-men..I could really go on forever here! :)
I love the Grey one!
Favorite thing about the 90's....the T.V shows. Boy meets world, Calrissa explains it all, Full House, Sabrina the teenage which, Power Rangers, and Hey Dude! Loved them all! Or maybe I watched too much T.V. haha!

Ooh I love the grey one :) My favorite thing about the 90's were the 1 hit wonders!!
I like the grey one!
My favorite thing about the 90s was the music. Most of the people weren't pretty but were good musicians! Not like now... everyone's pretty and autotuned!
i love the purple and the gray, but i think i'd go with gray because it's more neutral. favorite thing about the 90s? Probably Rugrats. My friends and i even had a Rugrats club, and we each had a different character doll.
The white or blue one are very shnazzy. My favourite thing about the 90's would definitely be: skip-its, bop-its, the awesome t.v. shows and some of the musicians {savage garden, n'sync, spice girls...}
The purple is cute!
Pop music in the 90s ;). It was pretty awesome.
Blue :) My favorite thing about the 90's... turning the swing set into an obstacle course to play 'Legends of the Hidden Temple' and 'GUTS'. Go Purple Parrots!
love the yellow. my favorite thing about the 90s... the cartoons and the sitcoms. looney toons and family matters. i love me some urkel!
tweet tweeted it!
I loved slap-its! I love that there are now watches made like them now too! I'm all about the orange one!
I love the purple! I wasn't around much in the 90's but I like (some) of the music! :)
Oh! I love the orange watch. The 90's? Welp, I loved stone washed jeans...and I still do...oops.
Oh that blue one is so legit!! I LOVE it. And my favorite part of the 90's were definitely butterfly clips. No contest.
I've been eyeing the blue one for months!
My favorite part of the 90's... Probably either the gel pen epidemic (I had SOOOO many) or all the legging pants and sweatshirts that my wardrobe was made of. :)
Tweeted about it, too! klynnanj
I tweeted about this awesome giveaway!
Ooh, I could totally relate to your descriptions of wearing slap-it's in the 90's. My siblings and I would chase each other around the house slapping each other with our bracelets until my mother would get frustrated and take them away from us. I love the pink one :) And my favorite thing about the 90's (well one of my favorite things) was the sitcoms...mainly Saved by the Bell and Family Matters. :) -Megan
Ha ha, I remember those! My fav thing about the 90s was coming into my own. I began taking ballet and was working in theatre. I was having the time of my life. I also began going out in drag. I sure could have used a softslap watch to know what time it was when I stayed out so late. lol.
I would definitely choose the purple watch. Purple is my favourite colour.
The grey is so simple and pretty. Favorite thing about the '90s? Jelly sandels and tomagachis.
I can't get enough of those kittens! So adorable. My mom totally has a snap-on watch right now haha. Looks cute on you, I love that color.
I love the grey! And gel pens take me straight back to the 90s. Also, arguing with my friends in the playground over who would get to be the pink one when we played Power Rangers!
Check-it-out
ahhh cute! I love the blue one! As far as my favorite thing from the 90's goes. what's not to love? Boy Meets World, gel shoes, and of course slap-it's!

I love the yellow and the purple.
Also, I was having a pretty heated love affair with New Kids On the Block in the first year or two of the 90's. You know, 'heated' for a 5 year old means I totally had their beach towel, tapes, and a poster.
I'm in looove with the white one. I've always wanted a white watch. My favorite thing from the 90s was overalls. I loved me some overalls in elementary school.
I like the white and the yellow the best. My favorite thing from the 90s is the music.
Wow I love those! I'm not just saying this, but I'd probably pick the yellow! It's my favorite color! the gray is awesome too :) My fave thing about the 90s? I still havent gotten over the backstreet boys fad! BSB 4ever!
Love the color yellow, and white. Favorite 90s memory... of course it'd have to be britney spears, backstreet boys, and nsync. I was obsessed haha ;)
I still have my leopard slap bracelet!! True story! and it's all bent from being slapped so many times :)
So TGIF was definitely where it was at in the 90s. That and my painted, flower, oversized shirts that I wore with biker shorts and sweet, colorful scrunchies in my hair. Oh and shortalls, definitely shortalls. Yes, I was a fashion goddess at such a young age :)
Oh and I love the white one with my whole heart :)
Oh and I just remembered those ribbon dancer things!!! And the sock'em boppers!! Oh my gosh so many awesome things!!
