Suggestion: It appears from the above specifications that you need functions which some clocks or wristwatches have. Then, one may contact their manufacturers or purchase the wristwatch or clock with the chip/processor inside.
 
Suggest you visit Have a look at the Basic Stamp and other microchips. You should find PDF files containing information and coding examples on how to achieve your circuit. There are many links to other relevant sites.....Jim T.
