Some informations about CST816S

Emulation

I'd like to try programming PineTime firmware even though I've not yet ordered any PineTimes (due to concerns about the capacitive touch and lack of transflectivity) and so I was wondering whether the PineTime system could be emulated using Qemu. Based on the PineTime specifications and determining that nRF52832 is ARM Cortex-M4, this is as far as I got with composing the Qemu command:

qemu-system-arm -machine none -cpu cortex-m4 -m 0.06125 -serial stdio -display ??? -rtc ??? -bt ??? -bios ???.bin -mtdblock PineTime-firmware.bin

Does anyone know Qemu and PineTime well enough to complete the above command? This would be really helpful.
