High quality intial version of the short

This short was made to advertise SpongeBob SquarePants watches that were available with a Burger King Kids Meal at the time the first movie was released.
- The five available watches advertised had the characters SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, or Plankton.
This short marks the first usage of "Lap Steel."
- It is also used regularly starting with the season 4 debut episode, "Fear of a Krabby Patty."
The short's name comes from SpongeBob saying, "Watch me!," while holding his eyeballs.^[3]

As SpongeBob enters the Krusty Krab, he is whistling the tune to the SpongeBob SquarePants theme song.
