Both Apple and Microsoft have been killing it lately with Accessibility. I would say both are the undisputed leaders in the space right now. Apple seems to be taking the software approach whereas Microsoft is taking a hardware approach.

Stuff like this makes me remember why I used to like tech to begin with. I wonder if the watch can be controlled without touching it at all?

Yes, the watch can be controlled without touching the face using their AssistiveTouch feature. It's pretty cool.

There are also some nice demos of the feature here: https://www.theverge.com/22778189/apple-watch-assistive-touc...
