NORD Dis - Quiet pixel watch face
· v1.0.0
About
NORD Dis keeps four things on the screen: the date, the time, one rule, and two values that stay out of the way. No icons, no bars, no gauges. It is built for glancing rather than reading.
CHOOSE YOUR OWN FIELDS
The two positions are yours. Each one can show any of:
- Steps
- Heart rate
- Battery
- Body Battery
- Calories
- Distance
- Floors climbed
- Nothing
Set both to Nothing and the face is only the time and the date, which is the quietest it gets.
COLOUR THEMES
- Dis: cool haze on blue-grey
- Skog: deep forest green
- Glöd: warm ember brown
- Natt: violet night
- Grafit: neutral dark grey
DETAILS
- Time in 24- or 12-hour, following your watch setting
- Weekday and date, spaced and muted above the time
- Distance follows your watch's own unit, kilometres or miles
- Weekday and month appear in Swedish on a Swedish watch and in English otherwise
- Step counts abbreviate past a thousand, so 8432 reads as 8.4K
- On AMOLED watches the always-on display shows a dimmed clock that shifts position every minute to protect the screen. On memory-in-pixel watches the full face stays visible in low power.
- The palettes are checked against the 64-colour memory-in-pixel screens, so the themes stay distinct on fenix and quatix watches instead of collapsing into grey
SETTINGS
- Colour theme
- Left field
- Right field
Body Battery needs a watch that records it. Where a field is unavailable the slot shows a dash and the rest of the face is unaffected.
Supported on 98 Garmin watches, round and rectangular. The layout is redrawn for each screen size rather than scaled, so the type stays sharp on small screens.
ABOUT
This one started as the opposite of my other faces. I wanted something I could look at fifty times a day without it asking for attention, and the muted grounds are the part I spent longest on.
Feedback is genuinely welcome, and so are requests. If a field is missing, if you would like another theme, or if your watch is not on the list, please tell me. I read everything, and there are more faces on the way.
