Hi everyone,
I’d like to introduce Expedition 01 · Summit Gauge, my analog watch face with an instrument-style dial.
The layout centres on three hands, red hour markers and a dark industrial background. Altitude sits at the top, heart rate to the left, the date to the right and weather below, giving it a different emphasis from my Elegant and Carbon designs.
Key features:
- Separate hour and minute hands with a red second hand.
- Altitude in meters and heart rate.
- Garmin weather with temperature in Celsius.
- English weekday and day of month.
- Touch-and-hold shortcuts for weather, altitude, heart rate and calendar.
- Reduced always-on display with outline hands, red hour markers and date on black.
The layout, data fields and units are fixed. AOD omits the seconds hand and data fields. Shortcuts are available while the display is active and require the corresponding Garmin feature. Weather depends on available Garmin data.
These are design reconstructions with sample values; the second image shows the reduced AOD view.

I’m interested in feedback on the hand contrast, the placement of the four information areas and which readings you find useful day to day. Questions, suggestions and bug reports are welcome here; your watch model is helpful when reporting an issue.
