More watchfaces
-
I have a minor cosmetic issue with a watchface. The attached watchface used to have hollow see-through hands in S9B and that’s how the preview is shown in Vertical. But the actual hands are solid and often hiding details of the complications. I’d prefer the original hands. Anyone else agree?
-
@BrunoH I like your feedback but I disagree. I prefer the solids because they’re easier to read at a glance.
As a workaround it may be interesting to have the obscured complications show up as an inverted color. E.g. the auto inverting cursors in windows:
but maybe it looks even more untidy then… -
FWIW I think the solid hands look better
-
@MiniForklift agree with you ! Easier to read !
However, I would love to see some new designs !it’s a cool way to “think you have another watch” -
Ja ein paar mehr Watch Faces wären schon fein. Aber es geht ja auch so.

I would like to have something simple like this:
this is the way!

Let’s do it!
I’m not a graphic designer and these could be a lot better than these concepts. For the most part, these are variations of existing Suunto watchfaces. These could be improved a lot. I personally lean towards cleaner faces with good hierarchy. I also would love an analog face with the sunlight indicator. Don’t need to see my steps or training hours etc. And I sorely miss the gorgeous Suunto red triangle from my A3P.
Less is more.
-
All of these are something that I would prefer to use compared to the current ones. Simple and clean.
-
What we also need is the weather complication on all current watch faces. This should’ve been an option at launch. I’m stuck with the default watch face, but that one triggers my OCD when the seconds disappear from the screen.
-
A good idea is have the possibility of create watch face with the visual studio code and a plug-in similar as Suunto plus editor
-
@Umer-Javed Concordo, anche a me manca l’apice rosso di Suunto nel quadrante

@Umer-Javed I am a graphic designer and these are great concepts, like Lexlehtor mentioned: “I’d prefer any of these to the current ones”
Just typed it somewhere else, I really hope Suunto will focus on their UI design. Their watches are beautiful, but the UI looks like it’s designed by engineers. No offence. There is just a lot of value that could be added by adding some great designs that focus on read- and usability.
-
@omunoz yes, open source it

The UX has seen some welcome changes in the past 10-odd years from A1/2/3 to Spartan and now 9PP/Vertical although still sluggish and slow for new products. UI is however another matter and if it were my way, I would love to blend Suunto’s industrial design team with an independent UI team who might listen to the customer’s voice rather than keep repeating the same mantra every year. Frankly all this talk is good but sadly it has occurred before and is very likely to be ignored by Suunto.
-
@Lexlehtor Agreed, I think they looks great! I’m kinda bit bored with the current ones, definitely would be nice to have a fresh look. That’s probably one of the few things I actually liked about Garmin, they had tons of watchfaces to choose from and they were easily able to be modded to suit you

I’ve always been a campaigner to have the option of having the seconds showing all the time, especially for the ‘digital’ looking displays
-
I don’t mind disappearing seconds as long as the rest is properly re-centered. But the option to always display seconds would also be welcome.

I second this
…ok i’ll be showing myself out now

YES. That is what I need as well! - Pleeeeeease suunto give us more analog watchfaces with adjustable complications!
So I am able to decipher the time while not wearing glases AND being able to come up with stant information during the day. That would be awesome.AND I would assist implement some of them. Let us help. I am a software engeneer and I speak almost every programming language that you could possibly throw at me…
Btw. I am a new vertical owner. Have my timepiece for three days now. The latest update is great - Everything just works fine for me. Except the choice of analog watchfaces that can be customized is a problem here…
Cheers Marc

We need more watchfaces At least according to the festival Christmas, New Year, running events.
