Breitbart has a lot of good info:

Apparently the little angel’s daddy has a history of activism.

This site is pro Ahmed, but at least shows the components of the ‘clock’:

Its obvious that he didn’t ‘build’ a clock at all. Rather, he took apart a digital clock and put the components in a case.

I’m very suspicious of this entire story.

In terms of the support Ahmed Mohamed garnered ("cool kid", "intellectual curiosity", "a bright one"), I think the Internet Nerd Squad, former members of the A/V Club in high school, rallied around a yute that reminded them of their glory days, setting up projectors, "manning" the PA system and proudly thrusting their hot soldering irons into the air! In that moment of thrill for one of their own kind, they overlooked the very salient fact he was a muzzie. That should always be the very first factor to consider, above all else.
