About
An analog face with no numerals at all.
The index bars stop short of twelve and six, because those two positions are where the data fields live. It reads as an instrument that has given up two of its markers rather than one that is missing them, and three and nine are weighted heavier so the eye still finds the horizon.
The minute hand carries the accent. There are eight to pick from, each tuned twice - once for the off-white theme and once for true black - because a pigment saturated enough to hold on paper goes muddy on a black screen.
What you can change:
- Theme: off-white or true black
- Accent: eight colours for the minute hand
- Index marks: none, three and nine only, all but twelve and six, or all twelve
- Hands: minute in accent, or both in ink
- Two data fields, above and below: steps, heart rate, Body Battery, stress, calories, watch battery, or nothing
- Seconds hand on or off
Settings are available in Garmin Connect and on the watch itself, from the watch face's own settings menu.
Always-on is supported. The face dims and shifts slowly in that state to protect the display.
A field shows a dash where the watch does not report that metric. Body Battery and stress are not available on every model.
