I would like to view a watch face I made running on a tablet or PC.
The goal is to make a wall clock with a WearOS watch face.

I have not found a perfect way too do this, but here is an idea how to do that:

This is a close as I’ve gotten. It’s Javascript. Not being a Javascript developer I’m having trouble figuring out how to do like operations with the graphic range of the Facer software or WFS.
I’ve got it running on a wall mounted tablet.

So… KWGT.
With PC power there is so much you can do but I reproduced one of my minimal faces as an Android widget for my BIG Bold Parent Proof home screen:

Sounds interesting.
Is that the 1967 Ironside or the 2013 Ironside?

I did eventually find this:
It doesn’t have all the tools you’ve come to expect, but it’s dead simple to make a nice HTML clock with. You can pretty much drop your watch face and hands you have from making a watch face and make an HTML clock out of them.
The gentleman who wrote this added some features I asked for. There is now a method for displaying the date. I originally got smooth moving hands by altering his Javascript, but he has since put in an option for turning smooth hand movement on and off. Originally he was moving the minute hand every minute and the hour hand every hour. He plans to added the display of images at given times.
Here is a gallery of clocks I’ve put together.

It looks interesting, sadly I do not understand language of that tribe.

If I am reading the most recent Javascript correctly, you might still need to put in a tag to refresh the page at some interval if you are using the date display feature.
The date is called up in the HTML file at start, but the Javascript may not update it.

Well, I’m up to around 130 faces made in Facer or WFS that I’ve made versions of using the HTML CCS Javascript I mentioned above. I’ve also managed to find another framework that allows me to have sub-dials, although it assumes hands rotate around their ends rather than the center of an image file. And, two other frameworks that allow times as round progress bars and that update the date ( or if I change the code hour or minutes ) without a meta tag to reload the page every 30 seconds or every minute to update a numeric time or date.
Here they all are on one page I put together yesterday. Auto-generated from the name of the face images, which worked for about 100 of them. The 30 needed special entries in the auto-generator because old ones did not use “Index.html” as their main page or because the folder was not named the same as the face image file.
