Ask HN: What are some geeky wrist watches?

I'm looking for a digital watch that has functionality like an hourly chime, alarm clock, and reminders. When looking purely at functionality, I have no trouble finding this, but there are some aspects of regular watches that I don't want to give up either.

Functionality-wise: I want to hold on to the long battery life of regular watches. It doesn't need to last a year on a charge, but longer than a month would be nice.

In terms of style: a lot of the watches are designed to look expensive. I'm talking about things like glossy screens, fancy modern designs, and metallic bodies. These are things I want to avoid. I like the retro designs of the watches listed here[1], for example, with black, plastic bodies, and low-resolution screens.

Basically, I'm looking for a computer watch, which was the precursor to smartwatches. Is anything akin in that vein still being produced?

Casio still makes many versions of the databank watch and, imo, you cant get geekier than that. https://www.casio.com/products/watches/databank

As a kid I cried for years and finally got this https://www.casio.com/products/watches/databank/cmd30b-1t

You kids can keep your integrated circuits.

I used to have the Casio Flip-Top Database watch (first entry on the pcmag list). The flip mechanism wore out after a couple of months so I wouldn't recommend such a mechanism.
