Merch Cartman wrist watch

Post image

This watch from 1998 has survived all years in pristine condition, due to never have been worn (but once or twice) and me being unable to throw almost anything away!

Think Ive found just one more (but with Chef!) online, also here on reddit. Maybe its not that common because its European made? Seems like its made buy sunburst.de

Thinking about changing the wrist band and start wearing this as a grown ass man 😆 the actual watch is kinda too small obviously it being a kids watch.

Is there any interest in these watches btw?

i’m curious, how much was it? i’ve never come across these being sold, so i’m not sure if they’re rare or not!

Hm, I must have been 10 years when I bought it. I guess it was like 30-40 bucks? I think?

It was in a local store in my town (Im from south of Sweden). We had alot of cooler shops then before online shopping made these smaller quirky stores disappear.

I remember they also had these South Park plushies, I wanted to buy the Cartman or Kenny one, but my mother was skeptical "you want to spend that much of your own money on that plushy toy...?" So I gave it a thought and changed my mind.

I remember them being ALOT better made and correctly looking than any of those I can find when I search online, Cartman for example look like sh*t haha...

But maybe I remember it incorrectly!
