Wow I just found something very similar to that called the Nintendo Watch Boy. I don't know much about it, but you might want to look into it. Maybe its from the same series?

They were on closeout at all the retail stores that carried them. There were several different styles out around that time, including one with Donkey Kong (DKC era) on the front with a flip top to reveal the time, and one styled like the original Gameboy. All of the watches are super cheap and break almost immediately.

On a little side note MANI also made my Mario & Yoshi Music Centre (http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=145268). Still puzzled over the value on that thing but I'm not in a real hurry to get rid of it...
EDIT: LOL I just realized the font is the same and everything... "Mario & Yoshi" watch AND toy keyboard. They're from the same toy line!
I'm not sure what your watch is worth. I wish it was one of those Nelsonic Nintendo watches that actually plays a game. Those are awesome! On another note I also have an LCD watch similar to this except with Mario 64 instead of Super Mario World. It's a terribly cheap little thing.
