I really like my F91W case with a Sensor Watch Pro board and accelerometer sensor.
My favorite features:
- Piezo alarm is much louder.
- Countdown time can be incremented by tapping the watch.
- LED color can be changed by adjusting RGB values.
- It features sunrise/-set and moon phase info/calendar.
- I changed the week day names to German abbreviations.
- There are lots of intriguing watch faces that you can compile into your firmware.
Sadly, the project is in some disarray as the originator apparently lost interest and the community isn't moving uniformly. Would love to see such a project for Casio with 4 buttons as this would allow for a lot more interesting use cases ... the pinnacle would be a board for their calculator watches. That would be rad.
The Sensor Watch forum on Discord is pretty active.

- nomel 1mo agoThere must be some significant creativity with limitations of the physical display layout! [1] [1] https://www.crowdsupply.com/img/87bb/b84945f8-c8fd-4a06-9291-1cf1e9f987bb_gallery-lg.jpg https://www.crowdsupply.com/img/87bb/b84945f8-c8fd-4a06-9291...
- joombaga 1mo agoThey make a replacement screen too. The feature set depends on the firmware, and you pick the right firmware for your screen (or make your own, it's FOSS).
- raffael_de 1mo agoyes, of course, one should also get the custom screen. offers a little more in terms of displaying.

- raffael_de 1mo agoonly outsider info based on GitHub stats and Discord.
- grep_name 1mo ago> Countdown time can be incremented by tapping the watch. This one is fascinating to me. Can you set it to start a countdown timer by tapping the watch itself (not a button)? If I could, say, tap the watch to start a 30m countdown timer whenever for baking, and then change a setting to make it a 1m30s timer on tap for exercise, that would be huge for me. But maybe that's not what you meant?
- raffael_de 1mo agoas I use it the increment is regarding the minutes. for 30 minutes I tap 30 times. given that it's all open source you could certainly change increments to 30 seconds.
