New watch faces - who wants these?

If you don’t want them… don’t use them… I buy Suunto watch because it does what it is intended to very well. Sure I may rotate/change a watch face here and there but it’s not impacting my love of the watch or the functionality.

@daffydzar I don’t think you should be voted down. C’mon folks. But I like the XMas and New Years watch faces. I do not like Garmin watch faces, too complicated, small fonts and downright ugly. I prefer simple and uncluttered. That is why I prefer Suunto and the Modern Analog my favorite.

My kids think it’s awesome that my batman watch (because it has a flashlight on it) now has a Christmas tree.

Pretty awesome little surprise and surely not the only watch face planned for the next year

You’re never going to please everyone all of the time, I think if having lots of choices for watchfaces is something that’s important to you maybe Suunto isn’t the best option. Overall I like what Suunto does with theirs; there are some that I will never use (the new Christmas ones come to mind), but there’s usually always close to half a dozen that I like to rotate. I’m quite old school so I prefer the analog versions - one thing I have asked for in the past and would like to see is the option to keep the seconds hand displayed

I’ve had Garmin, COROS and all of the other brands and for me Suunto’s watchfaces just look classier with enough customisability to have displayed the metrics you’re wanting to see. Good job guys

@MiniForklift Coros’ watch faces are BRUTAL

A new regular watch face would have been nice and not four for christmas and new year.

But what i really like - and I would like to have that for all the other watchfaces - is that the „new years fireworks“ Shows the Date also in always on mode. Please Suunto give this feature to all watchfaces.

The new festive watchfaces are a nice surprise!

I personally like the christmas trees’ Always on mode, it reminds me of neon lights - maybe inspiration for future watchfaces? Clean lines with a pop of colour!

I don’t dislike the current watchface selection and love the simplicity of some, but i do believe there is some room for improvement, namely:

Polishing/fixing jagged lines in some watchfaces (especially analog clocks).
More complications on Watch faces.
More use of colours - why have a vibrant AMOLED screen if most elements are black and white and better suited for MIP?
Accessing widgets when long-pressing complications, why is this feature still buggy and not fixed?

In the future i hope third-party watchfaces is available, i think it will not only provide us all more options, but it will also increase Suunto’s audience such as consumers, designers, etc.

Warm & festive!

I was using Modern Analog face watch which is the perfect watch face for me to have both compact datas + analog clock. After switching into the Christmas Tree face can really take a rest from datas on wrist

What is so special about the Always on mode?
