I have some of these (my collection has only few watches to indicate where they are in the computing timeline) and they are nice. I find the feeling and looks better than most smartwatches today and of course the battery life is very good compared. I have other small 'pocket' computers from the 80s[0] which have amazing battery life. I sure miss that. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_PC-1211 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_PC-1211

And now i am reminded of the TRS-80 100. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRS-80_Model_100 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRS-80_Model_100 While not pocket sized, it was a portable computer that would run on 4xAA. And even had a built in modem (300 baud). BTW i wish i could find a "receipt printer" that didn't cost an arm and a leg, and that didn't require thermal paper.
