How to change the colour of minutes in the default watch face?

Not on mine

Minutes in white here, they don't change when you change the colour only the lines in the outer circle 

I really wish I could change this. This watch face has a lot of cool info that I'd love to display. It looks a lot tidier than the somewhat similar one with the filled in numbers, but I don't want coloured, outlined numbers. With the reflective screen this is a lot more difficult to see. I want my old , somewhat similar Fenix 6s screen back to be honest as it was so much easier to see and so much more tidy.

As others have said, unfortunately not. This was the same on the 6 solar, where the official product images showed the default watch face with orange minutes, although in reality you couldn't change them. Oddly the Epix 2 allows you to customise the colour on the same watch face.

The default Fenix 6 watchface looks better to me than the 7 default face.

I was going to ask the same question! Why do they put a picture of something that is not available? It doesn't make sense

Probably the guy who makes the marketing renderings missed a memo.

Indeed I just checked my watch and the 3 color settings I can change are: Background color (can only pick from black or white), Accent color (the 6 tickmarks around the perimeter), and Data color (which only changed my solar graph color). The hours, minutes, and data around the perimeter all seem to stay white (or black, if you have a white background)

Garmin - Chris As trivial an issue this may appear, could the ability to change the colour of the minutes be requested for a future software update? How would we go about making this request? I agree that if the official product renderings show a customisable feature we should be able to replicate on the watch. We had exactly the same issue with the fēnix 6 Pro Solar 

Yes, I tried and I couldn't find any option.

I think it wasn't the guy who created that picture, I think it was a miscommunication between projects and marketing

As a follow up I have submitted a ticket to the Garmin support team requesting they pass this onto the dev team. Will update on this thread once I have a response

Dear support team, The link below shows one of the default watch faces on the fēnix 7. https://images.app.goo.gl/mR7WSU4JZsczVfxR8 You'll notice that the minutes are coloured orange, indicating that they can be customised as per other watch faces. Unfortunately it is not possible to configure this option on the watch itself for this particular watch face.

Please refer to the following discussion on the Garmin Forums. https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/outdoor-recreation/f/fenix-7-series/284219/how-to-change-the-colour-of-minutes-in-the-default-watch-face 

Is it possible to flag this as a feature request to the development team? Although this is a trivial issue, there's quite a few similar threads that demonstrate that users would like this functionality as advertised on the product imagery. The same was true with the fēnix 6 solar edition. I'd appreciate (as would many users on the Garmin forums) anything you could do to request this is rolled into a future software update. Thanks in advance for your help!
