This is my mom's vintage Kermit the Frog watch from the 90s. I cannot for the life of me find a single scrap of information about it anywhere online. The only result that confirms this watch even exists is a long dead listing without a price on an auction house website (apparently you can pay a subscription fee to see the price, but I'm not doing that). This watch isn't listed on the Muppets wiki with the othet pieces of the Kermit Collection, and it doesn't have any manufacturer info on it, just the copyright for the Henson company.
My mom has kept this watch in storage for years, I haven't seen it since the early 2000s, and I misremembered what condition it was in. I knew something was loose inside, and I thought one of the hands had snapped off, but it was actually the border of the mirror Kermit is looking into. I thought it was damaged beyond repair, but that's a super easy fix. Pop the glass off, glue it back into place, pop the back off, put in a new battery, good as new!
I have no clue who made it or when. This is the entire text on the back:
STAINLESS STEEL BACK ↑ JAPAN ⚡377 WATER RESISTANT V-246 HENL6616
KERMIT COLLECTION
TM & © Jim Henson Co.
And the strap just says
©Henson
GENUINE LEATHER
HONG KONG
I assume HENL6616 stands for Henson model 6616, but according to google, bing, and duckduckgo, that code has never been written on the internet before. It's hard to see on the fifth photo, but it's definitely 6616, not 6676.
⚡377 is the battery, an AG4 377
I have no idea what V-236 means. I'll pop it open later tonight and see if there's anything written inside. Hopefully the battery compartment isn't corroded to hell. If not, I could have it up an running in a matter of hours.
Her birthday is in October, and I think this is the perfect gift. Fingers crossed it still works.

Normally I only spin this one when I'm feeling low, because it's impossible to be blue listening to Kermit and company, but I thought it time to introduce Rosalina to one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.

The Game Where Bugs Are Snacks
Preview:
"If I had a nickel for every time I fumbled upon a work of fiction in which the main characters wind up eating the monsters inhabiting the fantasy setting, I would have two nickels... Anyway, I'm playing Bugsnax, the game where bugs are snacks. Also, there's weird body horror."
Read it.
