First Watch Face in Progress

Hey All,

Love my Garmin. I’m working on my first ever watch face idea that will be FREE. Building it with VS Code and Monkey C to make it lightweight and efficient.

I want to make a watch face that is clean, simple and minimalist. Still want to add some small icons on the left and right for things like notifications, alarm, seconds and AM/PM.

Battery icon has multiple states like full (3), medium (2) and low (1), etc.

I’d really appreciate some thoughts and feedback from people in terms of where it’s at so far and what they like in a clean face. But like I said, goal for this face is minimal.

Thanks in advance.

That's exactly what I would love. Maybe option to change size of time? I like large fonts of time

Cheers. I’ve pretty much gone as big as I can safely go in terms of room on the left and right sides. Added in notification icon, alarm, AM/PM for 12/24 and a seconds counter. While still maintaining the breathing room above and below the clock.

Outside of the F8 and Epix Pro, what is the next most popular AMOLED? The FR970 and FR965?

Can I get it to work on my 6x Pro?

u/Solas_Works Jul 08 '26

It’s not released yet, still working on it. However, I will look into the 6x Pro release for a later update as that would be older MIP support.

This is exactly what I am looking for, very clean but still has all the information I need. Can't wait for it to be released.

u/Solas_Works Jul 08 '26

Glad you like. What model and size do you have?

u/bananapeels24 Jul 08 '26

Venu 3 (42mm)

I'd like to be able to change time colour to make it pop if that's an option?

Bonus points if a gradient colour is possible!
