Blimme Watch Face

Blimme is a digital watch face that shows the time in four fat, rounded digits filled with colour, each one bigger than a quarter of the screen, with a reading curved along the edge of each digit.

WHAT IT SHOWS

- The hours over the minutes, one digit to each quarter of the dial, in your watch's 12 or 24-hour format
- Up to four readings, one along each digit, with its icon: heart rate, chance of rain, temperature, the date, steps, battery, UV index, step goal or notifications

THE DIGITS

The hours sit over the minutes, one digit to each quarter of the dial. Their inner edges meet on a thin black cross at the centre, and at the largest size the rest runs off the edge of the glass, so you read the time from the shapes rather than from small numerals. Four sizes take the digits from that full size down to small, where every digit sits whole inside the dial.

Each digit is a smooth flowing field of colour, shading between three tones of one family. Nine themes set the colours: six vivid ones, Sunset, Lagoon, Citrus, Jungle, Tropic and Reef, and three quieter metal tones, Silver, Gold and Steel.

THE READINGS

Along the rounded edge of each digit runs a reading, most with a small icon, printed in a deep shade of the digit's own colour so the colour shows through it. You choose what each digit carries. By default the four digits carry heart rate, chance of rain, temperature and the date. You can also hide the readings two at a time, the top pair or the bottom pair, or all four and keep only the time.

Always-on keeps the four digits in place on black, drawn as a thin dimmed band along each edge, without the readings.
