This Apollo 11 watch commemorates the 50th anniversary of first landing on the moon by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on July 20, 1969.
Pride of place in the bottom centre of the watch is a view of the moon through a reconstruction of the command module’s Crew Optical Alignment Sights (COAS). In 1969 this was a key tool for confirming correct navigation, on this watch the COAS shows the moon as it changes phase during the month and the outer progress bar indicates the degree of illumination.
Other features of the watch include an equation of time dial ( top ), watch battery and steps dials and digital LCDs values for ( clockwise from top left ) hours, sunrise, sunset, minutes, steps, date, month and battery charge %.
I hope you enjoy this commemorative watch.

ps. This is my entry in the TicWatch competition - “Space” category
{ update: the issue with the LCD font not displaying correctly has been solved for this watch face ( see long thread below!) }
Hello again. Superb face. I still have problems, though. And I asked a friend with a Ticwatch to try it and send me a photo. On my watch and in the app, it looks strange, all the boxes are empty. I need to turn on my pc to upload photos, brb.
I checked the Facer app and it is the same for me, all of the LCD fields are blank. However, if I send the face to my watch form the app the face works fine on my Samsung.
There appears to be a problem somewhere between the TicWatch platform and the App, can you help?
A user has told me that my competition design does not work on his watch ( Huawei W1) and that all of the “LCD” fields on the watch and in the App are blank. He sent a photo of his watch and I checked and he is right about both."
I can send it to you in private, if you want, is longer than that.
Thanks, no idea how that ended up as mail. It is not in my sent box. What you seem to have is a copy of a post in the related thread on the TicWatch competition. No idea how that got sent to you - sorry!
Thanks for the clarification - it is a load off knowing I am not sending random emails!!
I’ll let you know if I get the problem resolved. It is looking, at least to me, like a font issue with the TicWatch development platform. Sorry again that the watchface does not work for you.
I am still waiting for my friend with the Ticwatch to wake up (is just 9:34 here), and I will keep you posted. I really like a lot this face, I’d like to use it daily.
I will keep trying to get it fixed with the current fonts on the TicWatch platform - ultimately, if that is not possible, I will rebuild on the Facer platform and hopefully that will fix the problem.
Having said that, It just occurred to me; we can test to see if your issue is the same as the one that the APP is having. My other recent designs have identical text displays using the same font and they display correctly on the APP. If you get a chance, can you test one of my other designs? These two have the same text displays:
If these work then the problem is a common one. If not, then your watch may have a particular issue with my faces
