(Calculator) Watch Keychain

Recently, my school created a new policy in which we were no longer allowed to carry backpacks. Well that sucked because I use my calculator to find out my scores and I also use it in math.
I decided to make a keychain with a calculator on it.
I had a calculator watch lying around so i used that but this can work for most all watches.

This part is kinda hard to explain, but hopefully the pictures can explain better than me.
