This resource is more to bump the idea from earlier, if somebody wanted to experiment some more. I was not successful with measurements to prove the point, also there was some minor alignment trouble, but still I like how some shapes went, even in grid restricted space for making custom fonts online.

Thanks for update, but it seems the watch has hard time to work the font right. I was hoping it was the other way, but it seems the watch can not antialias the font properly.
I just do not know who to blame…
Maybe me for trying to smuggle in something unexpected

If you always do what you have always done you will always get what you always got 
Nothing wrong with a bit of smuggling!

The second hand is fine but I have absolutly no Idea why I can not take a decent picture of this one . Not enough to pull focus on I suppose .

Okay looking good- but what are the advantages of using a font instead of images?

The idea was, since Facer (and other tools too) works with some canvas resolution different from real resolution of inserted images and different from native resolution of watches, the displayed image might loose some sharpness or has to be somewhat oversized which loads storage and memory capacity. Vector image should be compact solution to both, size and sharpness. Since Facer nor WFS support vector images, other vector source would be font. But it seems to shatter on the watch, be it its graphic SW or HW, and result is not properly antialiased.
