Looks

Look out of a round window on a space station: the curve of the Earth below you, the thin blue line of its atmosphere, and black space above. The hands of your clock turn in the middle of the window.

A classic analog face

  • Twelve steel bolts round the window's frame mark the hours, with white stencil numerals on the glass if you like.
  • White luminous hands like a pilot's watch, and a safety-orange seconds hand.
  • The date glows on a small display above the window.

Life in orbit

  • The view follows your day: the sunlit Earth with its oceans and clouds in the daytime, and at night the lights of cities and a green aurora over the horizon.
  • Every hour, an orbital sunrise: the Sun comes up over the Earth's edge, the atmosphere blazes orange and turns blue.
  • Every minute, a satellite glints across the sky above the horizon.
  • Tap the window and a pen floats past in zero gravity, tumbling slowly.
  • In always-on mode the face turns dark: the window, the bolts, the hands, the date, your steps and your battery, to save power.

Your information is on the panel

Your steps, unread notifications and battery glow in amber on the three displays of the panel under the window.

Make it yours

  • Earth: follow the day, always day or always night.
  • Hour marks: bolts, or bolts and numerals.
  • Satellite and Seconds hand: on by default; switch them off to save battery.
  • Three complications on the panel: steps, unread notifications and battery by default. Choose other data for any of them in the watch face editor.

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

Works on watches with Wear OS 6 or later. Made in Watch Face Format: nothing to install on your phone, no permissions, no data collected.
