About

Your home break, on your wrist. Glance down and know if it's worth paddling out — no phone, no app to open. BreakFinder Surf turns your watch face into a live surf report for your home spot. One number tells you the story; wave, wind and tide fill in the rest. WHAT YOU SEE • Surf score (0–100) as the hero — the overall rating for your spot right now • Wave height — swell size in metres or feet • Wind — speed and onshore/offshore; offshore lights up green because that's the good stuff • Tide — state and trend, rising or falling • The time, always — it's still a watch face • Your spot name and a quiet battery readout BUILT LIKE AN INSTRUMENT Pure-black face, one hero numeral, one accent. No clutter — just the read you need between sets. On AMOLED watches the score glows; on transflective and Instinct screens it stays crisp and flat. Instinct's sub-dial becomes the score gauge. UNITS YOUR WAY Wind in km/h, knots, mph or m/s. Height in metres or feet. Or leave it on Auto and the face follows your watch's own metric/statute setting. 190+ GARMIN DEVICES Venu, fēnix, Forerunner, epix, vívoactive, Instinct — from the big AMOLED rounds down to the 32 KB Instinct 2S, each gets a layout tuned to its screen. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the watch face 2. Create a free account at https://breakfinder.surf 3. Set your home spot 4. Paste your API token into the face settings in Garmin Connect 5.
