Does anyone know this kid's watch?

I wonder if anyone can tell me the brand and model of this kids (I believe automatic) watch I saw the other day? It was brightly colored with a fabric velcro strap, and featured a very unique dial and bezel.

The hours and minutes were both labeled with the numbers centered within the spaces between where the indices normally are, making it very easy to learn how to read analog time. The divisions around the watch look a bit like the Cupola windows on the international space station shown in the uploaded image.

I haven't had much luck googling for it. Ring a bell for anyone?

Does advancing the date set it to AM?

There's something I've always wondered about mechanical watches with a date. Does advancing the date start you of in the "AM" or does it stay in whichever half of the day AM/PM you were already in? I've been advancing the date by turning the hands to ensure I know which half of the day it's set to, but maybe this isn't necessary? Sorry if my question isn't worded very well.
