Surely this is just piss poor spelling
This is a fine watch. It’s amazing what can be put on a wrist these days. The multiplexing scheme is rather interesting.
I really like that the builder used the 32 kHz clock for running the CPU. I thought that I was the only watchmaker in the modern world to do so, in my Nixie watches. Writing code is much more fun when every instruction’s execution time is visible in the display.

I think it would be fun to make a watch using a 555 timer, a mess of flip-flops, and some overly-complicated 74XX logic ICs to drive 4 seven-segment displays.
