Dj has published an Apple II watch project on Instructables. It uses an Teensy 3.1 processor and Adafruit 1.8″ LCD display.
When I set out to design the Apple II watch, I originally planned to create a faithful tiny replica of the classic machine in a wrist-sized form factor. While researching the design I began to ask if I really just wanted to make a miniature, or something altogether new? I settled on the latter.
Although the MCU I’m using runs at a blistering (by early 1980’s standards) 72 MHz , the watch functions are mostly parody of the modern Apple Watch. My version does keep and display the real time and date, the rest of the UI is mostly for fun.
