All right, I've incorporated a couple touches from the stopwatch.



Still a tad messy with the checkered box track but I like it. I also added the BoR bracelet which I think it belongs on.

 

I think the red chapter ring is too much if I'm honest. I prefer a cleaner, simpler Carrera.

 

Red or checkers, not sure about both now, starting to intrude on face too much?

 

So do I, but I'm not sure whether the checkered-flag motif would work that well on the chapter ring.

Could be, but I think the 42mm model is big enough to support it. If anything it'd decrease the visual size of the 42mm to ~38-40mm

 

Sure have...

 

steel / silver

 

^Sorry, but those pics only convinced me further that I'm definitely in the rectangles camp. Not only for readability, but I just find it easier on my eyes. The squares in your Connected mock up are too busy and actually make me a little dizzy. (As they say, to each his own.)

 

Even I'm struggling with this. I'm fooling around with it on my end, and I like the squares and the 1:1 connection to the red racing box. But I like the rectangle too -- the elongation reminds me of speed.

Maybe the solution is a "squartangle."

e.g. if we're going by an equal parts ratio formula

1:1 = square
2:1 = rectangle
1.5:1 = squartangle (which is still a rectangle but 1/2 way between a 1:1 and 2:1 shape ratio)

 

The squartangle, are you in marketing by any chance Ara?
Perhaps the squartangle could be fitted to half seconds of the chronograph? So matching two division markers. The H02 beats at 4 hertz so 8 movements of the chronograph hand every second, hence the 4 division markers. That way the squares could be a visual aid in reading the correct timing. 1/8th, 2/8th,... to a full second. Make sense?

 

Gunther, do you know how many times I had to read this just to try and understand!?

 

I just went away and made coffee.

 

I’m glad @Albert-AMG got it

 

Ooh those are great!

 

hello
I'm making a small project and this is how it will look like. What do you think guys?
