Welcome @r.malo
What a nice Idea.
You have inspired me .
Unfortunately I cannot help to get that on an Apple Watch .
For me there is no Apple Template as Blank as would be needed to make that.
It could be easily achieved for the Other watches but you would really need a Pro Creator to get the interaction for the date Button .
what is someone makes a complication all in LED to mimic that retro 1971 style
if i have time I’ll give it a try with less complications as possible since seems that nothing works with those apple faces

Problem with faces for apple watches is, you have to pick one of the templates with forced time format, that breaks true attempt to make it really thematic. Also the refresh rate for elements other than forced time is not clear and can be too low to make own time elements or something even more dynamic.

Could look something like this. But what a shame.
As far as I know elements will update every 15 seconds.
If you are Intrested I could carry on and make the time work with the date flipping on after a number of seconds.
I see you have done a layout .
I do not normally work with Apple Watches but if no one picks up your request I will have a go .
I have no way to Guarantee it would work .
I did some apple stuff but got no feedback .
If you are prepared to Buddy up on this It would e fun .
I am not interested in trying to hunt down another Font. I think that one looks ok.
Or get a WearOS/Tizen Watch

This is still just a draft. As I said I would have the DAY and MONTH number Flip on after 4 seconds or so .

So @r.malo thank you for the Inspiration . There was something Terribly Exciting about those watches they were so different at the time. So Futuristic.

You are kind. It is not for an Apple Watch. I am so sorry I could not reproduce the Numerals with the tiny LED dots. I cheated and used an LCD font. But it is near enough for the Time I wanted to spend on it. Making a custom Character Set takes a lot of work.
I would really like this one also, it looks 1971

thx for kindly words and thx for the wirstshot but I’m not satisfied of it, as rusty says it needs a custom pic fonts for better looks that require alot of work and since apple faces are still in beta don’t think that worth the job but who knows
