WATCH FACE FOR WearOS & Tizen
Brimham
The Venture series by Trafford Watch Co. celebrates lesser known, but still fantastic locations around the world, pulling inspiration from the colors, patterns, and history of each. This first volume focuses on locations in Great Britain.
The first design celebrates the other-worldly rocks of Brimham Rocks, in North Yorkshire. The sandstone rocks, sculpted by 320 million years of movement of entire continents as well as hundreds of thousands of years of ice, rain and wind, have taken on weird and wonderful shapes. The rocks are eroded in such a way that they often look like many layers of rocks balancing on top of each other.
This is the inspiration for the stacked rock texture found on the dial of the watch design. There are also several color options available at a tap that pull from both the natural colors of the area—and in the case of the white version—the national colors of England.
Instructions:
- Tap the Trafford logo to cycle through the color options.
- Tap the date area to cycle through the outer data ring options.
Enjoy!

My phone unfortunately did an awful job of highlighting the green but I am loving the watch face! Small question, would you ever consider bringing a dimmed version out for watches on wear os that don't support dimmed mode? this would mean I could see the regular watch face while AOD is enabled.

@dgnbey: Thank you! And yes, the Facer creator program is absolutely the best one out there for designers. I'm not very good with all the coding and stuff, and Facer makes most of it pretty easy for me.

@dgnbey: Thanks amigo. I generally start by sketching. Then I make all of the pieces in Adobe illustrator. Then I bring everything over into Photoshop to apply colors, textures and lighting.
