Crisply scaled old-school clock in a variety of colors
Pebble Time was the 2nd and final iteration of a smart-watch from a startup that was later acquired by Fitbit, which was later acquired by Google.
The hardware had an always-on LCD display with a similar resolution to a Game Boy, but in portrait with 64 colors. My demo does not take advantage of the full resolution, opting for pixel doubling to ensure legibility, resulting in a blockier aesthetic.
The Pebble SDK isn't very useful unless you have the corresponding hardware, so this watch face demonstration uses HTML canvas.
Similar to other pages, sans many features.

The 5x5 pixel font is called Bagua, as 5 rows and columns is just enough resolution for a trigram. The font was made for this watch face because it can act much like a 7-segment display, with the added benefit of a saner approach to rendering the Roman alphabet and other symbols, typically in the ASCII character set.
Modified to support more than one size of pixel font. Fonts comparable to some Japanese fitness watches, with desired adjustments.
