Zusammenfassung:	A computerized watch 310 includes a cover that forms an outer surface of the computerized watch and a screen 312 configured to output graphical information for display. A set of physical watch hands 314A,B are positioned between the cover and the screen and configured to present a time of day. One or more computer processors and a memory cause the one or more computer processors to determine if the computerized watch is operating in a time display mode. The hands are manipulated such that they present the time of day by obscuring a portion of a display region of the screen when the watch is in time display mode, and manipulated such that they do not obscure the screen when not in time display mode. The hands are preferably retractable and are withdrawn from the display area.
