Does anyone know if this watchface exists for the connected 2020?

Yes, it exists for the Connected 2020, and the Connected Modular 2017, and the Connected 2015: it’s the same face for all Wear OS watches with WatchMaker app 😉

I tried now and works fine

👍 So, perhaps the problem of Gen3 going slow with that WatchMaker face (and with others), is it only when it is tethered to an Android phone? 😕

@B738 , is your Gen3 working with iOS or Android phone?

Any news on that, @Ninja1400 ? Because I’m on iOS, and I don’t have a watch selector like in Android (I have just: “Apple Watch or Other”), so I don’t know whether the WM app is already fully compatible with Gen3 or not
No news, last WM version for Android dated end of February is 5.8.1 and Gen 3 still not supported.
I sent them a request to add it, but no reply.
This is the changelog of the last 2 updates:

OK, so @Ninja1400 and you are using Android phone and both having problems with your Gen3 running that Calibre 16 Day Date face, while @Iñaki is using his Gen3 with iOS and has no problem with that face...

This could be the explanation then, that -for whatever reason- with the iOS version of the WatchMaker app Gen3 works well, but with the Android version it needs an update

One question, ¿it’s possible deactivate the needle of battery? I don’t like every time the screen goes out of sleep, the needle moves to 12.
Thank you

Thanks for sharing this.

I can also confirm this one seems to work well on my g3 and doesn't have the same impact on scrolling performance as some of the others.

Which one do you want to deactivate?

This one that shows battery level in bright mode


Or this one that shows battery level in dimmed mode?


Or both?

Yes, depending on the quality of the images, the number of moving elements, reflections, number of layers... there are WatchMaker faces more demanding for the watch than others.

The difference is that (at the moment, and it seems that only when tethered to an Android phone), Gen3 has the lowest tolerance limit for face difficulty compared with Gen1 and Gen2.

For example, a difficulty 10 face will stun all three generations (and any smartwatch), but while Gen1 and Gen2 can perfectly run a difficulty 7 face, Gen3 doesn't, but it can run well a difficulty 5 face. Presumably an update of the Android WatchMaker app will solve this problem

Ok, I’m showing you how to modify this, so you can change it in all your faces, because in most of the faces, seconds hand is showing watch battery level when dimmed:

First of all, click on Customize watch


Then go to the layer where is the SW seconds hand that you want to modify (layer 68 in this face)


Then go to Display, and click on “Bright only”


Then select “Always” and confirm with the check mark

That way the SW seconds hand will always have the function of StopWatch seconds hand {swrss} in both bright and dimmed modes

Repeat the same with layer 66, which is the shadow of layer 68

Now go to the other SW seconds hand in layer 69, which is showing battery level {br} when dimmed, and do the same as in the previous layers, but putting the Display on “Never” instead of “Always”

Repeat this with layer 67, which is the shadow of layer 69

[QUOTE = "Iñaki, post: 1502288, member: 30990"] Le deuxième s'il vous plaît, je voudrais qu'il soit toujours à 12, et ne change pas en mode grisé et écran allumé
Merci [/ QUOTE]

[QUOTE = "Albert-AMG, post: 1502068, member: 42719"] Oui, il existe pour le Connected 2020, le Connected Modular 2017 et le Connected 2015: c'est le même visage pour toutes les montres Wear OS avec l'application WatchMaker 😉
