Hey everyone, lately I’ve been obsessed with chronograph watch designs so I been busy over the past few days spinning up some ideas. Here’s how they turned out, let me know what you guys think.
I made a few other dial patterns/color variants but they all follow the design language of these two examples.
Nicely crafted, excellent work, well done I like the AOD as well by the way, but I will say that I prefer a ticking Seconds Hand, obviously just my own personal taste though, your work looks very impressive as is…
I used to be good about changing the second hand rotation from smooth to 5 or 7 ticks per second to mimick a mechanical watch, but I’ve gotten lazy lately about performing that final step in the creation process. Since you mentioned it though I now have some determination to adjust the seconds hand, thank you!
Thanks for the advice, also, I appreciate the suggestion about the racing stripes. I think I might take a brushed metal background and cut it to resemble a stripe and then place that vertically on the right side of the design. I hear what your saying with regard to the design not quite matching up to what some would envision a watchface titled “Speedway” would look like. Initially, I wanted the face to resemble a Rolex Daytona/Omega Speedmaster but I didn’t want to name it “Daytona” or “Speedmaster” even though those words do not infringe on copyright trademarks because I wanted the design to be its own rather than a low-key knockoff.
