JUST ANALOG TACTICAL V2 — Vintage LCD Watchface

A retro-modern analog watchface inspired by classic LCD/LED displays — Game Boy, VFD, Casio LCD, plasma, CRT phosphor, and more. Built for tactical use with crisp readability and deep customization.

═════ 20 VINTAGE THEMES ═════

Pick from 20 unique display themes (first setting in the menu):
LCD Casio · LED Red · VFD Cyan · Game Boy · Amber LED · LCD Cobalt · CRT Green Phosphor · LED Blue · LED Orange · LED Magenta · LED Purple · Plasma Orange · Mint LCD · Sky Blue · Forest · Navy · Sepia Brown · Slate Gray · Pink LCD · Crimson Red.

Each theme controls the full color palette automatically: bezel, text, digital HH:MM, progress bar, dot-matrix LCD zones, and rounded label frames. Switch themes and the whole watchface re-skins live.

═════ TOUCH CONTROLS (on touch watches) ═════

Tap the TOP of the screen → cycle forecast modes:
- 3-day forecast (icon + min/max)
- 3 configurable data fields
- Next 3 hours forecast (Garmin Weather only)

Tap the BOTTOM → cycle through all 20 themes instantly.

Non-touch watches simply ignore the gestures.

═════ HH:MM FONT CHOICE ═════

- Aldrich (modern sans-serif)
- DSEG7 Classic Bold (authentic 7-segment LCD)

═════ FULL COLOR CONTROL ═════

Every color setting accepts a 6-char hex (e.g. "9bbc0f") or "auto". With "auto", the color is derived from the active theme — switch themes and colors follow. Type any hex to lock a custom override.

Editable colors: Foreground · Label · Digital Time HH:MM · Background/Bezel · Left field Value + Seconds · Left field Label + AM/PM · AOD lines · Progress Bar.

═════ WEATHER — DUAL PROVIDER ═════

▶ GARMIN WEATHER (default, no setup)
Built-in via Connect IQ. Includes 3-day daily AND next-3-hours hourly forecast. No accounts, no API keys.

▶ OPENWEATHERMAP (OWM)
For richer data via OneCall 3.0:
1. Sign up at openweathermap.org (free)
2. Activate the "One Call API 3.0" subscription — the FREE plan gives 1000 calls/day, more than enough
3. Generate an API key in your OWM dashboard
4. Paste the key into the "Weather API key" setting

OWM provides current conditions, 3-day forecast, AQI, UV index, dew point, cloud cover, precipitation probability, feels-like, wind, pressure. Auto-fetches every X minutes (configurable; default 15).

NOTE: Hourly forecast works ONLY with Garmin Weather. On OWM, the top tap cycles between two modes only.

═════ AOD SUPPORT (AMOLED) ═════

- Time Only — minimal battery, just HH:MM and hands
- Full Layout — entire watchface with forced black bg, automatic color safety

Horizontal AOD reference lines align with LCD zone edges and use theme-driven colors.
