Ninja Headband

A ninja's forehead protector runs straight across the dial: a band of dark cloth and a big riveted steel plate, engraved with a leaf and spiral emblem, its spiral turning round the centre of the dial. Behind it a sunlit summer forest, soft and out of focus. Twelve small steel throwing stars mark the hours, and two throwing knives are the hands, turning on their ring pommels, with a slim orange seconds hand.

Tap for a whirlwind

Tap the watch face and a whirlwind of green leaves swirls round the dial, spinning and tumbling, then scatters away.

On the hour

As the hour turns, a spinning throwing star flies in across the plate, a glint of light runs over the steel and a few leaves drift down.

Brush lettering

The date and your readings are written in bold white brush strokes on small dark plates in the forest, above and below the band.

Three cloths

• Blue.
• Black.
• Red.

Readings in the forest

Steps, unread notifications and battery, under the band. 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; the leaves and the throwing star play only on a tap and on the hour. Always-on shows the plate and its emblem, the hour stars and the knives as dim outlines on black.
