Unofficially Maintained Watchy

Since the official Watchy repository has not been maintained for a long time and there are no plans to continue maintenance, this repository is forked to provide ongoing support.

Please use PlatformIO for development.

Differences Between V2 and V3:

v2 v3
SoC ESP32-PICO-D4 ESP32-S3FN8
RTC PCF8536 EXT 32KHz Crystal
USB-Serial CP2102N/CH340x Built-in CDC/JTAG
PCB xywatch/watchy-hardware-v2 xywatch/watchy-hardware-v3

Current issues with v3: Using EXT 32KHz Crystal clock results in 1-2 minutes of inaccuracy after several days and high power consumption.

Key Notes:

  • PlatformIO is the recommended development environment.
  • Ensure the correct .ini file is used for your Watchy version (V2/V3).

v3: Enter Bootloader Mode (esp32-s3)

To upload new firmware/watchfaces to Watchy, you will need to enter bootloader mode

  1. Plug in the USB on Watchy
  2. Press and hold the top 2 buttons (Back & Up) for more than 4 seconds,
  3. then release the Back button first,
  4. before releasing the Up button

You should now see an ESP32S3 device enumerate a serial port i.e. COM, cu.*

非官方维护 Watchy

因为官方 Watchy 已很久没有维护且也没有打算继续维护的计划, 所以fork该仓库来维护.

请使用 paltformio 来开发

v2与v3的差异:

v2 v3
SoC ESP32-PICO-D4 ESP32-S3FN8
RTC PCF8536 EXT 32KHz Crystal
USB-Serial CP2102N/CH340x Built-in CDC/JTAG
PCB xywatch/watchy-hardware-v2 xywatch/watchy-hardware-v3

v3当前的问题: 使用EXT 32KHz Crystal时钟几天后就会不准1-2分钟且功耗大, 可能原因: 依赖外部晶振,若晶振功耗高或匹配电路不佳,可能导致额外耗电

如何解决:

  • 检查 32.768kHz 晶振 的负载电容(通常 12.5pF)是否匹配
  • 换用 高精度晶振(如 Seiko Epson MC-306)

v3进入下载模式:

  1. 同时按 BACK 和 UP 键大约4s
  2. 松开 BACK
  3. 松开 UP
