The Minimal Binary watchface is inspired by the book Snow Crash. One of the ideas in the book is that hackers can directly process information that is presented in a binary format. Because of this, and because I like to explore new technologies, I decided to design a binary watchface design for the Garmin smartwatches. Minimal Binary is the result.</p><p></p><p>The design uses four rows of squares. You start counting binary numbers from the right. On each row, the right-most square represents 1, the one left to that 2, the one left to that represents 4, and the left-most square is 8. When a square is filled, it is active and 'counts'. For example: when the square for 1 and 8 are active, the value for that row is 9. The watchface uses a separate row for each number in the 00:00 format:</p>
0.9 add custom design for Instinct 2 and 2S as a test. It's available through the watch settings.</p><p>0.8 add watch setting for layout type (partial grid with battery, partial grid without battery, and full grid without battery)</p><p>0.7: rewrite code (no functional changes)</p><p>0.6: increase square sizes for larger screens (300px +) and square watches (e.g. sq).</p><p>0.5: add visual indicator for pm for 12h settings.</p>

コレは非常に面白い♪ えっと、読める様になる迄、チョイと時間が掛かりましたが・・・ でも読める様になると、暗号解読している様な気分です(一般的な文字盤じゃないし) 説明を理解出来ないと、やっぱりこう言うモンは難しいね 他人の文字盤と違うので個性的で最高です

Absolutely amazing and fantastically thought up! Honestly with something this unique I don't have many words beyond how cool it is and as a plus it makes me use my brain a bit more.

This watch face is amazing! I asked Erik to add compatibility to the Instinct 2, and he was able to do it in only a couple days.

The most beautiful minimalist watch face on IQ Store right now. Excellent conversation starter :) Hats off for the nicest developer I ever met.

Nice and crisp binary face. Would love the option for a date and/or a notification icon.
