My DiY Smartwatch Project: Teensy LC is the clear Winner(for now)

I have decided to use the Teensy-LC for now because of the availability of libraries, easy to use, lots of existing examples and so many ports and digital/anolog/pwm pins. I am ditching Esp-12E and I will be using ESP-01 instead as the wifi module. And it's a weekend and I had spent sometime creating a simple sketch to make the smartwatch work. And so far, I have created a sketch using the ESP-01, 1.44" tft screen and the expensive 4-wire touch panel. Below is the connection diagram I used:

I even had to prepare a development board for ESP-12 and included in the board the 1.44"tft lcd with the 4-wire touch panel attached into its surface. I was so lucky that the technician I hired did not made any mistake and the soldering is like a pro:

The sketch I created is based on the existing examples when I loaded the teensyduino into the Arduino IDE. I also used the adafrruit 4-wire touch panel library and I did not had difficulty using it.  To summarize what the sketch do, I program the whole screen as a button, so when I hard-press the screen, it will automatically activate the wifi to search for existing wifi hotspots and display them on the screen and after 5 seconds, it display the wartch face again.
here is the watchface:

And here is the sketch:
