Winter Clock Tower Watch Face

An animated Christmas watch face for Wear OS: a classic analog clock seen from inside an old town hall's clock tower, looking out through its great glass clock face over a snowy winter market square. Far below, a tall tree glows in golden lights among wooden stalls, a skating rink and a little carousel, with the moon in its real phase above the rooftops. On the hour the great bell swings and Santa's sleigh crosses the moon.

KEY FEATURES
• Gilded Roman numerals on the glass, or Arabic figures or gilded studs, a ring of sixty small panes for the minutes, and the day and date in gold under XII.
• Ornate gilded hands, a snowflake in the hour hand, turn over brass clockwork gears, one with snowflake spokes.
• Each minute the hand steps on with a small bounce, the gears turn, the square's lights and the garland twinkle, and a flurry of snow drifts across the view.
• On the hour the clock strikes: a ring of warm light runs across the glass at every stroke, the bell swings, and then Santa's sleigh crosses the moon, a reindeer's nose glowing.
• Every quarter hour frost creeps across the glass and melts away.
• Tap the bell to ring it whenever you like.
• On Christmas Eve, from 6 pm, Santa flies every quarter hour, and at midnight golden sparkles fall over the square. These holiday extras switch on by themselves on December 24: no setup needed.

MAKE IT YOURS
• Numerals: Roman, Arabic or gilded studs.
• Bell on waking: the bell swings each time you raise your wrist, or only on the hour and on a tap.
• Snowfall: on by default; switch it off to save a little battery.
• Three complications: steps, unread notifications and battery by default; choose other data for any of them in the watch face editor.

ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY
In always-on mode the face turns dark: only the panes, the numerals, the hands, the date, your steps and your battery stay lit, to save power.

COMPATIBILITY
