I had a few friends in Jr high school (1980-81) that had some trick watches. One that had an FM receiver and a headphone jack and one that played a video game. It may have been frogger.
I gave myself pretty wild callouses playing the Pac-Man watch game with the joystick (not the four buttons). The joystick clipped into the wristband when not in use, and almost immediately got lost! I just pressed on the sharp little nub on there to move him around.

Chris, could you get a clear photo of the back bezel showing model number? I'll try and help you locate a manual.
