About
A Soviet VFD tube recreated as a Garmin watch face.
IV-22 Large is a retro digital watch face inspired by the distinctive glowing digits of the Soviet IV-22 vacuum fluorescent display (VFD) tube.
The goal is simple: bring the character of a vintage electronic display to your Garmin with large, highly readable digits for quick time checks.
The IV-22 (or ИВ-22 in cyrillic) is a Soviet vacuum fluorescent tube from the 1960s. These tubes were widely used in electronic equipment before modern LED and LCD displays became dominant.
Features:
• Large, highly readable digits
• Retro Soviet VFD-inspired design
• Always-On Display (AOD) support
• Designed for quick and easy time reading
• Customizable digit colors with color filters
• Seconds shown as a dot or a progress ring
• Battery-friendly design with low power consumption
• Supports almost all Garmin watches with AMOLED screens
• Distinctive 7-segment digits based on the original IV-22 tube
• Customize settings directly on your watch or from your phone
IV-22 is available in three sizes:
• Small — compact digits and a subtle look: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/f111e3b0-3d3f-4ebe-b8a2-998dae2a9ff0
• Medium — a balanced everyday layout: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/6685e811-7072-44c2-af2d-832dd471a5f8
