Gold Octopus

A men's jewellery dial in deep teal mother-of-pearl that shimmers like the sea. At the top sits an octopus of polished gold, its head set with pavé diamonds, its eight tentacles curling round the rim with rows of diamond suckers and wrapping the big gold time in the middle.

The octopus wakes

On every hour, and whenever you tap the watch face, glints of light run along the diamond suckers from the tips of the tentacles to the head, and the octopus's eyes flash.

Three gold portholes

At the bottom, three round gold portholes: a widget of your choice (steps by default), your heart rate with a small gold heart, and the weather now with its icon and temperature. Above them, the day and date in gold capitals.

Three metals, three seas

• Metal: yellow gold, rose gold or platinum - the figures, the porthole rims, the date and the readings.
• Sea: deep teal, midnight blue or black pearl.

The octopus always stays gold and diamonds.

Readings

Put another app's complication in the left porthole and it shows that app's icon, or its title where it sends no icon. The weather comes from your watch's weather service; if it shows "--", open the Weather app on your watch once.

Easy on the battery

Nothing moves at rest: the glints play only on a tap and on the hour. Always-on shows the time as thin gold outlines, the date and the octopus's two eyes, dim on black.
