Pebble Time with Michael – Day 15
Well, it seems inevitable that it will keep happening to me – finding yet another watch face for my Pebble Time and realizing that it has become my new “favorite”. There are just so many wonderful watch faces available from the Pebble App Store. The latest watch face to rocket to favorite status for me is Tally.
Tally is a watch face that mimics a “real” watch very well and is very elegant and visually appealing in its design. Most importantly for a Pebble Time watch face, it is very easy to view in a wide variety of lighting conditions. Its large numbers, hour marks, and hands make is especially visible. It provides me with all of the information I like to have available to me at a single glance. It shows the time, date, current weather conditions, and battery level. It also buzzes whenever the Bluetooth connection with my phone is lost and shows an alert on the screen.
The watch face is extraordinarily customizeable, with tons of options making it very easy to personalize to your own tastes. The black and white color scheme can be inverted. The second hand can be removed as a battery saving feature. You can display weather information or not, and display temperatures in Fahrenheit or Celsius. You can fix the location of weather forecast or use your current location. Really, the options are so varied and extensive you’ll have to experience the settings screen yourself in order to fully appreciate them. You’ll have an amazing amount of control over what appears on this watch face if you install it on your Pebble Time.
I find myself using this watch face whenever I want to have my Pebble Time looking most like a traditional watch. It has completely replaced my previous favorite traditional watch face, Modern.
Nevertheless, I still also regularly have the Straight watch face running on my Pebble Time. It’s the watch face that I find the easiest to view in all conditions and still provide me with all the information I want to have instantly available to me. Really, I don’t think you can go wrong with either of these favorite watch faces of mine.
