  BT is all that´s really missing from the Nano.
  But the development of watch-oriented accessories should stay with the 3rd party industry, that is even one of the cores of why and how the iPod is it´s own subculture.

  I predicted the iWatch 4 years ago. And I just know 2011 is the year I finally get to see it.

  A few more hardware changes the iWatch needs:

  • Small internal speaker for alarm
  • Waterproof (at least water-resistant)

  I think there are really two questions here:
  1) Can you wear the iPod nano well as a watch with third party bands or should Apple make a band
  and
  2) Is the iPod nano a good watch

  For #1, I say third parties are doing a great job.

  For #2, I think there's still a lot Apple can do to improve the "iWatch", including
  • Making the screen stay on so you don't have to hit a button just to see the time
  • More clock face options (maybe a plug-in system where you can design your own watch face)
  • More time-piece features like World Time
  • Bluetooth communications with iOS devices to:
  – Display notifications like Caller Id, SMS, etc.
  – Control the iOS music player
  – Stereo Bluetooth
  • And the holy grail: App Support to make your own time watch apps.
