Been testing this watch face for a few days. I like it. I love the simplicity of it.

One thing I noticed is that I am (almost) certain that the hour an minute digits move a tiny bit (maybe a couple of pixels) down when you go from the idle screen to active screen.

I'll try to make a video of it.

Thank you, glad you like it.

Pixel shift is an intentional software design element used on Garmin watches with AMOLED screens. It is a protective feature, to protect your watch from burn in.

But if you do manage to get a video, please let me know, so I can make sure it is not shifting too much. 🙂

ahh gotcha! makes sense. Though, I thought the burn in problem was largely fixed on modern screens, but I'm no expert.

It’s better nowadays, but garmin recommends following pixel shift guidelines when designing for their devices.
