Industrial stock watch face with AMOLED version

Am I missing something or why does the Industrial stock watch face doesn't allow to add heart rate to any of the data fields?

    The same watch face in the MIP version allows heart rate to the circles? 

    Also the default watch face which comes with the AMOLED version doesn't have heart rate as an option.

    There are multiple stock watch faces that ship with the Fenix 8 AMOLED.

    The one with time in the middle, surrounded by 6 fields (and two more above/below the time field) are settable to HR, Altitude, and a variety of other dynamic values.

    Here's the same face, on a Fenix 7 (not finding a new pic for the F8), for reference, but someone posted an example on Reddit (any of the 8 fields can be HR, I have mine on the edge, but this person has it in the field below the time):

    Yes, understood and that's the reason I'm using the Data Dash as we speak. 

    But due to my vision, I'd prefer to be able to have heart rate in the Industrial stock watch face in one of the three big circles on the left. 

    I don't see any reason why the heart rate is not part of the list? 

    As mentioned the same Industrial watch face with the MIP version does support that.

    That's weird, that the solar/MIP version does support this, have you asked support?

    You can turn the font size way up, but I don't think it affects the watch face, probably because it'd be hard to scale all the data fields.

    Yes, it is weird. 

    I've contacted support. 

    Unfortunately the text size doesn't impact the watch faces.

    I got an answer from the official Garmin support: "We are aware of this issue and it is being looked into. I have added you to our case we have open for it. You should be notified when a fix is released."
