Alternative A.L.I.V.E Living touch screen LED watch

I have another light-up watch again as the music festival is still going on.

This one is a design you can find all over the Internet in different variations, however this one is the only one I've seen with a makers name on the face.

The watch is by Alternative A.L.I.V.E Living which (according to the front text) is a Paris based brand established in 1996. A quick Internet search was unable to find this company though. There was an instruction manual (in Japanese) where the model number AC-W-BCG68 is shown.

The face has numbers (unlike most of the others you see online), but there are no hands or buttons. You show the time by pressing the face (quite hard) which starts one of several light patterns before showing the time. Around the dial is a ring of 60 LEDs in blue with white ones at each hour. The ring fills up to the right minute while the hour light flashes. Time is set by holding your finger on the face for a few seconds.

The back just states that it has a stainless steel back and that this is No. 539.
