Components
For this project, you will need the components mentioned in the following list. All the components listed can be swapped for similar components, and in Figure 9.1, you will find the components I used. If you do swap the components, make sure that you keep track of the dimensions of your components. The design for the watch in this book is based on the components shown in Figure 9.1 and leaves very little room for modification since we are trying to achieve as small a casing as possible.

If you want to pack the full punch with your watch, you could consider including a GPS, however this will make the design much bulkier...
