Starfield Collectors Edition watch runs Espruino

Starfield is the most recent game from Bethesda Game Studios (known for the Elder Scrolls and Fallout series). It is a futuristic space exploration RPG that has received a fair deal of press coverage.

As part of the collectors edition of the game, Bethesda worked with The Wand Company to produce a replica of the watch your character receives at the very beginning of the game. The watch and collectors edition are shown in this video at the timestamp.

I bought the collectors edition as I was rather excited for the game and was curious as to what the watch was running. I actually discovered Espruino by watching the firmware update process of the watch. I even bought a Bangle.JS 2 so I could play with Espruino more.

When connected to the IDE, there is no prompt and typed characters are not echoed but commands are still executed.

Here is the output of print(process.env)

{
  "VERSION": "2v18.2174",
  "GIT_COMMIT": "f50bb7b20",
  "BOARD": "DICKENS",
  "RAM": 262144, "FLASH": 1048576, "SPIFLASH": 8388608, "STORAGE": 327680,
  "SERIAL": "xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx",
  "CONSOLE": "Bluetooth",
  "MODULES": "Flash,Storage,heatshrink,locale",
  "EXPTR": 566328, "APP_RAM_BASE": 536882880
}

I rather like the watch hardware, 4 buttons and a circular 240x240 screen with 16-bit color. Accelerometer, magnetometer, temperature, pressure sensors and a vibration motor just like the Bangle, although no GPS or touchscreen. It also has 2 (not 4) pogo pins on the back for charging. I am unsure if it a completely custom board or if it is repurposed with a custom shell.

If anyone has any suggestions I would be glad to run commands on it to learn about its hardware, as well as back up as much of the original firmware and files as I can. But I would prefer not to modify any of the storage to keep it as close to original as possible.
