Wanna watch?

 We have a smartwatch now. Well found a smartwatch, its not the best and leaves something to be desired but can now trigger the camera on my phone remotely like some kind of pervert, which is a bonus of sorts.

It has a companion app which has the worst watch face collection in existence and wondered what would it be like if I was going to do it. Looking into it, it seems you can use a Raspberry pi as a watch for anyone techy enough to fiddle around and solder stuff. 

I always thought there would be a market place or at least an archive up on archive.org for all the watch-faces people made over the years, but I was wrong and its of course a fucking subscription.  

So its got me thinking, what would my perfect smartwatch be. Let's cut to the chase here and say that what it needs to be is generic and repairable. Its got to have a USB c charger interface because I don't trust those magnet chargers, make it a wireless charger. Maybe an e Ink display so it can be permanently on and I won't have to push the button to display the time.  I wouldn't mind some sort of phone integration through android itself rather than an app, but if we're going the app route then open source all the way. Oh and decent battery life.

I'd like it to disable several things in settings menu, such as most of the fitness / period tracking which do not appeal or are usable by me. I'd also like it to load 3rd party watch faces from archive.org if it ever gets them, in a regular open format. I'd also like full integration with OpenCamera or at least your system camera and have volume control for the shutter.

Lastly I'd like to call someone like in the old Dick Tracy cartoons. Though that is one thing I think you can already do.

EDIT.

Poking more with the camera controls its just shutter and the usual switch of front / back facing camera angles. You can't switch from video to camera settings and you can't zoom in via watch or app. I'd love to have something that could be used as a remote camera set up but for various reasons probably illegal that it won't do that. Or disable shutter sound.
