How Can I Create a Functional Omnitrix Replica?

[EnderKing101rs]

Hiya, I'm an... Ameture I guess you could call it, and I'm trying to make this prop/cosplay/replica watch thay has odd requirements. It's hard to explain, probably due to my, newness to the craft.
If it helps the device I'm trying to replicate is called the Omnitrix. Able to do anything but transform you, i hope it to be anyway.

Hi. What is it that you're wanting help with exactly? Are you wanting a working mechanical device, or just something that has a certain 'look' to it?

Kinda both. My main issue involves the dial of the watch.

Okay. So what about it? You need to be specific. Most of us here aren't cosplayers and none of us are mind readers.

Sorry, hard to explain. What I want is to make a screen accurate replica of the classic series Omnitrix, able to do what is seen on the show. The dial is able to pop up and rotate, the face of the dial is able to change in response, and the 4 green dots are buttons. Due to how the show is the dial is too big for it to rest inside the Omnitrix so I need it to collapse. For the dial altering, imma use a screen, for the brains, either Bluetooth or some kind of wireless link to the "omnibrain", a pack that sits on your belts and such. The dial poping in and out is the main issue.

Well, this is well outside my skills, so I'm afraid I'm going to have to bow out. Hopefully others here on PF can assist you.

Thanks you for replying at least

This video shows how a perfect copy of a pressure dial was created for restoration. He did it by scanning the old one, photoshopping the image, then printing a new one on a silk screen. It's a lot of work, but you could do something similar. Depending on the quality you want, you may be able to use a printed copy rather than silk screen painting.

Here's a video that shows roughly what I mean

So you want a video screen on the watch? It sounds like an app for an Apple Watch .

Not quite. Out of All the versions of the Omnitrix, it's the most doable I just am having trouble figuring out the dial action.
