Omega Mission to the Moon fan

Watch Faces - OP DEV

About this app

A tribute to the 1969 edition of the space chronograph's mission to the moon, the one that remembers the Apollo 11 landing and the gold chronograph made to celebrate it, rebuilt as a standalone Wear OS watch face: a warm gold-toned dial under a black tachymeter bezel, black printing, gold hands with a black inlay, and a slim black seconds hand sweeping across it all.

THREE REGISTERS
This is a chronograph-STYLE tribute, not a working stopwatch. There is nothing to start and nothing to stop:
• At 6, on the register with a printed 60 scale: the running seconds, sweeping in step with the central seconds hand rather than ticking a second behind it
• At 10, on the 60 scale: the minutes. At 2, on the 12 scale: the hours. Both turning with the time like the main hands

CLASSIC OR DIAL
The face comes in two views:
• Classic: the whole watch, with the black TACHYMETRE bezel around the gold-toned dial
• Dial: a bezel-free view, zoomed so the printed dial runs right to the edge of the screen

ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY THAT STILL LOOKS LIKE THE WATCH
Most watch faces go nearly black in ambient mode and leave you two floating hands. This one keeps the watch on screen: the dial, the tachymeter scale, the markers and the printing of all three registers stay, dimmed right down to a warm glow, with the gold hour and minute hands lit on top. What goes out is only what runs, because that is what costs battery: the sweeping seconds and the register hands. A light dial is one of the brightest things a watch face can leave on, so it is dimmed further than its darker sisters, and it still reads at a glance: measured at 12 per cent of full brightness against the 15 per cent Wear OS allows.

MORE
• Central hours and minutes with softly cast shadows, and no complications to fill in
• Standalone: no phone or companion app required
• Built with Watch Face Format for smooth performance and long battery life

NOTHING TO GRANT
You are not asked for any permission. The face carries no code of its own.

HOW TO CUSTOMIZE
Long-press your current watch face and tap Edit, or open it from the picker, then pick Classic or Dial.

COMPATIBILITY
Wear OS 5 and later, round displays. No blend modes are used, so it is not limited to 5.1 and runs on more Wear OS 5 devices.
Note for dual-chip watches (OnePlus Watch 3 and similar): their Power Saver mode only runs the manufacturer's own built-in faces, so any third-party face works in Smart mode only, and the watch warns you when you apply it.
