About

Hi everyone, I created this watchface for the Instinct 3 SOLAR with a clear goal in mind: to pack as much useful data onto the screen as possible while keeping it clean, readable, and most importantly, battery-friendly. It is primarily designed for detailed heart rate tracking. To function properly, it requires: - Heart rate monitor enabled (the green light). - Bluetooth connection to your phone with internet access (for weather and sun data). - GPS enabled on the watch for occasional location updates (for weather and sun data). Key Features: Unique HR Graph: Displays your heart rate history directly on the main screen (approx. the last 2 hours), including real-time auto-minimum and maximum. The graph has a strict scale from 50 to 140 bpm, and one measurement equals exactly 1 pixel (no averaging or smoothing). The height is intentionally fixed—when you wake up in the morning, you can instantly tell you're at rest just by seeing the low "hills". Each full hour is marked with a top tick mark in the graph. Your current heart rate is displayed in the small top-right circle so it's always visible at a glance. To save battery, it only shows up for 10 seconds after a wrist gesture (the same applies to the seconds on the main clock) and then hides. Smart Sun Info (Day/Night): Switches automatically. During the day, you see the sunset time and a countdown of remaining daylight. At night, it switches to the next sunrise time and a countdown until dawn. Battery Under Control: See both percentage and remaining days under a single icon (e.g., 100 % | 30 days). The watchface is fully optimized for MIP displays; data that doesn't change frequently updates only once a minute, ensuring it won't drain your battery. Full Data Overview: - Time & Calendar: Bold digital time (seconds appear on gesture), date, day of the week, and the number of active alarms. - Heart Rate: Current HR (in the sub-window) + history graph with min/max range. - Battery: Percentage + remaining days. - Weather: Current and maximum temperature for the day, so you know what to wear in the morning. - Activity: Steps and estimated distance in kilometers (for better accuracy, I recommend setting your custom step length in the Garmin Connect app). - Sun Data: Sunrise/sunset time + live countdown.
