Impromptu "Watch Wednesday"

I've been wanting to build an Apple IIe watch for some time:

Watch the video.  It's hilarious.  I've also wanted to play around with the teensy and this would be a great opportunity.  In some ways, the teensy's specs far exceed those of the Apple IIe.

On the other hand, this one looks quite practical.  I saw it this morning on Adafruit's twitter feed:

One interesting challenge with this watch would be to see what you could with three buttons and a screen besides tell time.  Because he has a game built-in already, there is already a good starting place.
