Pujie Black

Pujie Black strikes the right balance for those who want a traditional watch face. But want the customization that comes with a smartwatch. By default, the watch has a constant report of your phone and watch battery, along with the current weather forecast. The customization options make it shine with an accompanying Android app that lets you tweak. The type of analog clock hands, color schemes, size of the tickmarks, and digital readout. It also reconfigures well for when the watch face fades away during the standby mode. Displaying a faint digital time outline of the watch face.

Your watch face can’t always be severe. But a little fun on the front of it with Retro Rocket. If you recognize the design, that’s intentional.

Dots Watch Face

Sometimes the best things are elementary. The smallest dot slowly rotates around the screen, ticking the time away. The hour-minute dots are also positioned just as minute hour hands would be. So you can get the time with a quick glance. This could make for a nice break from all those watch faces that offer a deluge of information. Or maybe you prefer a clean and modern design. Either way, it’s a great-looking watch face, even if it doesn’t give you much extra functionality.

Material Watch Face Clock

With this face, Material Design meets a digital watch. When on standby, the screen goes dark with a stark, sans serif font presenting the time, date, and temperature. When the watch lights up, you get various color choices, with a white or dark background against bright colors. It adjusts to either round or square watch faces. One caveat is that it’s designed for Android Wear 5.0. So ensure your watch has been updated to the latest operating system version.

Pac-Man Watch Face

Pac-Man never gets old. The watch face version isn’t a game. It instead uses a brilliant display of the hungry creature eating his way across your screen. He works through a series of power pellets, fruit, and ghosts running away with their frantic face on. If nothing else, it’s a great conversation starter.
