Proof Coin

A large proof coin seen face-on: a deep mirror field, a frosted relief in the middle, sixty struck beads round the rim for the minutes and the hours struck round the field: twelve stars with a small rosette at twelve, or Roman or Arabic numerals.

The legend is yours

The words that run round a coin are your readings here: steps across the top, and unread notifications, the date and battery round the bottom, struck in capitals along the coin's edge. Put another app's complication there and it shows that app's icon, or its title where it sends no icon, above its value.

Three motifs

• A laureate profile.
• A three-masted ship under full sail.
• An owl on an olive branch.

Three ways to mark the hours

• Stars, as old coins have them.
• Roman numerals, turned along the coin as on a classic dial.
• Arabic numerals, standing upright.

Three metals

• Gold, silver or copper - every motif in every metal, with the same relief.

One moment, and nothing else

On the hour a glint of light sweeps across the coin. Nothing else moves but the hands, so it is easy on the battery.

Made to be read

• Polished hands with black enamel, bright on the dark mirror field.
• Frosted lettering on the mirror field, the strongest contrast a coin can have.

Make it yours

• Motif: profile, ship or owl.
• Hours: stars, Roman or Arabic numerals.
• Metal: gold, silver or copper.
• Seconds hand: on by default; switch it off to save battery.
• Three complications.
