Looks

A festive Christmas watch face for Wear OS, with a countdown to Christmas Day. A snowy North Pole village at night, warm lights in every window. Over Santa's post office hangs a big old candy-striped sign, and the time is spelled in glowing light bulbs.

A digital face with a countdown

  • Big light-bulb numbers show the time, in 12- or 24-hour format as your watch is set, with the day and date underneath.
  • A red wooden plank counts the days to Christmas in bulbs. On Christmas Day it says MERRY CHRISTMAS, and after that it starts counting to the next one.

Your information is on the mailboxes

Your steps, unread notifications and battery are written on the plates of three red mailboxes by the post office.

What moves

  • Each minute the bulbs flicker as the new minute lights up, the village's lights twinkle and a flurry of snow drifts down.
  • On the hour Santa's sleigh flies over the sign, Rudolph's nose glowing, and drops a letter that flutters down into a mailbox.
  • Tap the sky and the sleigh flies by whenever you like.
  • On Christmas Eve, from 6 pm, Santa flies every quarter hour, and at midnight golden sparkles fall over the village.
  • In always-on mode the face turns dark: the sign's outline, the time in soft bulbs, the date, your steps and your battery, to save power.

Make it yours

  • Bulbs: warm white, gold, festive red or ice blue.
  • Snowfall: on by default; switch it off to save a little battery.
  • Three complications on the mailboxes: steps, unread notifications and battery by default. Choose other data for any of them in the watch face editor.

Made for the holidays

  • An animated Christmas look for December, holiday parties, Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
  • The countdown to Christmas and the Christmas Eve extras run by themselves: no setup needed.

To customize, touch and hold the watch face, then tap Customize.

Works on Wear OS 6 or later, such as Galaxy Watch models updated to One UI 8 Watch and Pixel Watch. Made in Watch Face Format: nothing to install on your phone, no permissions, no data collected.
