It's a total pain in the ass to reset the perpetual calendar mechanism on this watch when the battery dies. It involves opening the case and using a pin to short several contacts to the body and getting feedback from the gestures the second hand makes. Can a device be built to interface directly with the "calendar chip" or whatever is in there so I can just input the date with a computer?

I have rigged a laser pointer to fire while the camera is autofocusing. There is not enough voltage coming out of the camera's remote shutter release cable to trip the relay, so I had to add a 3V power supply (some button-cell batteries). The relay runs in parallel to whatever circuit is inside the camera.
