Instinct 2 watches - part of information hidden under circle frame. Would be better to move information lower on screen or at least put grid locator below coordinates

Dear Bayard. Really good input. Please check the new version. I have changed the layout for all Instinct series watches. Please check the 6-char datafield app as well. Best Jakub
