You can always mock it up on a breadboard, using through-hole

Anyone created a home made version of the binary watches you can get now
(like this one http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/watches/6a17)? They look so
cool!

I was thinking of using a PIC and watch (32,768) xtal possibly with a
seperate I2C RTC device. Most of the devices that would fit in a watch case
are SMT which I have no experience of in homebrew. Is there anything like
the equivelant of breadboard for SMT devices?!

Any thoughts appriciated,
