Analog watch faces

Former Member over 5 years ago

Does anyone know if there is a stock analog watch face that allows you to remove the seconds hand? I would prefer an analog face but I understand having a watch face that updates every second is detrimental to battery life.

Do watch faces that update every second have a noticeable effect on battery life?

That doesn't really apply for the built in watch faces. Those run in a special low power mode that is not available to third party watch faces. So having the second hand constantly visible for a built in watch face has a much smaller impact vs doing the same with a Connect IQ watch face.

I think on the stock watch faces, there is a timeout such that the second hand will disappear until gesture is activated.

@Garmin: Would still be awesome to remove the seconds hand in your build in watch faces. It really doesn't help, option to switch it off would be great!!!
