More details would be nice.

What kind of graphics, backlight or nobacklight?

Basicly, you wont be able to do full graphics.
Also, with that power supply you wont be able to have a backlit LCD.

Thanks for the reply, im really not sure how to go about this project . I assume that it would have to have some backlighting or maybe a seconday light running off a totally different power source. the project is I would like to design a watch that will let input logos from companies. what do you think about the likelyhood that is possible

Not very likely...

Finding a LCD that small will be quite difficult... finding one that small that can do pixel graphics will be much harder.

You might be able to find one, but the problem will be driving it... what microcontroller are you going to use it with? It will need one.
