Orbiting Moon

A giant solid hour in deep space; the moon orbits it to tell you the minutes

Looks

Deep space, the Milky Way across it, and in the middle the hour as a giant solid 3D numeral of pale satin metal, lit from the upper left. Round it runs a thin glowing orbit, tilted so you look onto it - and on that orbit the moon tells the minutes.

The minutes go round the hour

The orbit is marked 0, 15, 30 and 45, with a dot every five minutes: 0 at the far side, 30 at the near side. On the far half of the orbit the moon passes behind the numeral, small and dim; on the near half it swings out in front of it, larger and brighter, its shadow falling on the metal.

A flare round the orbit

Tap the watch face, and on every hour, a flare of light sweeps once round the orbit.

Three bodies

  • The moon, lit from one side.
  • Saturn and its rings.
  • A comet, its glowing tail trailing back along the orbit.

The hour your way

The numeral shows 1 to 12, or 0 to 23 when your watch is set to 24-hour time.

Readings in glass

Steps, unread notifications and battery sit in three small glass lenses with a glowing rim. Put another app's complication there and it shows that app's icon and text.

Easy on the battery

Nothing moves at rest: the body steps to its new place once a minute, and the flare plays only on a tap and on the hour. Always-on shows the numeral's outline, a faint orbit and the body's ring, dim on black.
