Rusty the Boy Robot Limited Edition watch

As any regular followers know, I'm a fan of robot watches. Today's watch is sort-of a robot watch, but not my normal style.
The watch is a Rusty the Boy Robot watch, and is a quartz analogue watch in the style of the old Mickey Mouse kids watches. The face is a 2 hand dial with the Rusty character painted on. In this case, the hands are really the hands as it is Rusty's arms that move round, and he points at the correct time.

Rusty the Boy Robot comes from a comic and TV series called The Big Boy and Rusty the Boy Robot by Frank Miller. Frank Miller is a well known American dark comic and graphic novel author. He is probably most widely known for his comics with movie adaptions - Sin City and 300. Miller created the Big Boy and Rusty comic in 1995 which started in Madman Comics before graduating to its own series. The TV series aired from 1999 to 2001 and followed a slightly different story track than the comic. They follow the adventures of Rusty, the most advanced robot ever built who has human emotions. He was created to protect Earth as a replacement for Big Boy who is brought out of retirement to train the inexperienced Rusty who grows to idolise him.

The watch was released as a limited edition of 1000, probably connected with the TV series. The watch back has am engraved picture of Rusty along with the edition number. The back also shows this has a Japanese movement, and is 30m water resistant. The watch comes in an engraved large metal box with a metal limited edition certificate.
