[Watch face] Circle Time

Circle Time

by Arjun Srivastav

This is just another Big Time image modification. This uses a circles or dots, or a mixture to show you the times, in an easy and readable manner. It's as easy as translating images into numbers and adding them!

Interesting Fact: All of the creation of images and compiling was completed in just under half an hour!

 

Here's the mockup I made. As usual, it looks far better on the watch!

Here's how to read it:

Dot = 1

Circle = 3

Those are the basics. Here are some slightly more complicated examples:

Two Circles = 3 + 3 = 6

One Circle and Two Dots = 3 + 1 + 1 = 5

Two Circles and One Dot = 3 + 3 + 1 = 7

All together, this isn't too much of a complicated watchface, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

Extra: The first to find out what the time in the mock-up image is gets a free e-cookie. Enjoy!

Here are all the images used in the creation of this watchface.

Thanks for taking a look! Hope you enjoy it!

I like this, It doesn't take long to learn to read it. My only comment would be to use a tiny dot or nothing for a zero, as it's easy to mistake a zero for a three. Zero is a smaller circle than a three but if there are no threes to compare with then you could think it's a three.

Oh, and 14:56. Can I have my free cookie now?

I'll see if I can change that this weekend and upload a new version. And about your free cookie... I sent it!

Enjoy!

I'd suggest either making zeros blank, or padding single-digit hours with whatever's chosen as the zero symbol.  Leaving the top-left space blank and using zeros elsewhere is fine for styles that resemble "normal" time readings, but with something more abstract like this one it feels inconsistent.
