Magic Lamp Carpet

The round medallion of an old Persian carpet, seen from above, and a brass oil lamp lying at the foot of the dial. The hours are lettered in pale gold with a calligrapher's pen, and slim brass hands with an onion-dome ornament turn over the pile.

Rub the lamp

Tap the watch face and turquoise smoke pours from the lamp's spout, rises and curls up across the dial with a few gold sparkles, then thins away.

Every hour, the same magic

As the hour turns, the smoke pours from the lamp again on its own.

Lettered by hand

The numerals, the date and your readings are written in a gold lettering drawn for this face, thick and thin like a broad pen, with a fine dark edge so they read on the busy carpet.

Three carpets

• Red.
• Blue.
• Emerald.

Readings on the carpet

Steps, unread notifications and battery, in gold on small navy medallions woven into the carpet. Put another app's complication there and it shows that app's icon, or its title where it sends no icon.

Easy on the battery

The hands move once a second at most; the smoke plays only on a tap and on the hour. Always-on shows only the gold numerals, the hands and the date, dim on black.

Make it yours

• Carpet: red, blue or emerald.
