I prefer a web GUI that I can use from my phone - this is one reason I no longer buy off-the-shelf hardware (I've yet to actually build my own, but that is another story. I have retrofitted web GUIs to the more open hardware). With a web GUI you can expose as much as you like and make it simple to adjust without the user having to sit with a manual on their knee (or just never using any of the features of the clock).
Barring that, consider adding a small OLED panel that can indicate where you are in a menu hierarchy and where you can go next. Finally, The best button-based menu hierarchy I have come across uses just three buttons - UX design is a serious business.
