    Watch face: Line
    Widget: Controls (being able to control my music has been way more useful than I ever imagined!)
    Data Field: Dozen Run Field
    Apps: Stopwatch
  • Watch face: SR6 (Stanislav.Bures)
    Widget: No additional ones, but I do like the Heart Rate widget
    Data Fields: Graphical Heart Rate (Garmin) and Heat Rate with Zone (TeunMo)
    Apps: None, though I do have Gym Timer (robinsonmilani) installed.
  • Watch face: Default one does me. I am interested in the time of the day and I think it is the only one that shows the seconds!
    Widget: Any weather one, Note2Watch (not on a 235 yet but have it on my 920 - I put my conference call number/code there as can never remember it), HR widget on a 235 as use that the most on the 235.
    Data Fields: Smart predictor (keeps me "entertained" on long runs although not been ported a 235 yet but there is another one from a different author). "opposite" fields so I can see km and km/min when on the treadmill to more easily compare with the treadmill I use (which only does metric) but still have miles and mins/mile as well. Of the "multi" data fields ones, I find "Single Run Field" the clearest - perhaps because does not try and cram too much in although TBH I tend to prefer the default Garmin screens.
    App: dwMap (for navigation ability), Note2Watch again but again only one my 920. Like the idea of WatchOut (to store your barcodes) but haven't actually ever used it "for real" yet!

    Are seconds that important? Oh I forgot, in times where time is money I guess for some they are :rolleyes:

    The SR6 shows seconds on wristturn. I like to see the steps, distance and calories so I don't have to open that widget. Also I find battery percentage useful.

    Watch face: ActiFace. It's the best watch face if you ask me. Many of the others are just not serious. Would like to see Steam Gauge on the x3x units as well.
    Widget: AccuWeather MinuteCast, and think I will download Battery Gauge also.
    Data Fields: Runner Window FR: think it's the best multiple data field, free and not trial. Also have maximum and minimum HR, although I have never used them.
    Apps: Stopwatch and Hike. It's nice.
  • Watch face: I've tried several but most seem too busy but I'm liking Supreb right now.
    Data fields: The only one I've tried so far is Visual Pacer which I like. Just wish it was configurable from the watch and that Garmin would allow data fields to give alerts.
    Apps: Battery Gauge, RHR, Hike. All good simple apps that do one job and do it well.

    Watch face with HR

    Didn't look like any of the Connect IQ watch faces had HR on screen, including with the customizable options. Anyone come across one that I overlooked?

    CIQ Watchfaces don't have access to sensor data like HR. No CIQ watchface can display it.
