CELEST5660 Retro Digital Watch

⚠️ IMPORTANT — REQUIRED APP

This watch face requires the free Retro Watch Complication app to function. The watch face is the visual layer; the Retro Watch Complication app provides the data, the alarm scheduling, the audio, the persistence, and the button logic. Without it, the LCD area will show placeholders and none of the modes will work.

Setup is three quick steps:

1. Install this watch face
2. Install Retro Watch Complication:

3. Open this watch face's complication settings and assign each slot to the matching complication provided by Retro Watch Complication (a visual setup guide is included in the screenshots)

────────────────────
Step back to the golden age of digital timekeeping. This watch face is a faithful tribute to the multi-button LCD tool watches of the 80s and 90s — the resin-and-steel originals that taught a generation what an alarm, a chime, a stopwatch, and a countdown timer should feel like. Big readable digits, segmented compartments, side-button labels around the case, and that unmistakable LCD-on-grey aesthetic, all rebuilt for your Wear OS smartwatch.

Paired with the Retro Watch Complication app, this isn't just a retro-styled clock. It's a fully functional retro digital watch.

Press the A / B / C / D buttons around the face to cycle through five operating modes: Timekeeping, World Time, Alarm, Stopwatch, and Countdown. Set five independent daily alarms, turn on the hourly chime, run splits on the stopwatch, or count down to zero — all operated directly from the watch face itself. No menu diving, no app switching. Just like the originals.

Read the full manual on Retro Watch Complication's Play Store page for full instructions.


🎨 PERSONALIZATION OPTIONS

· 10 background variations
· 10 LCD background colors
· 30 text colors for the LCD digits

Mix and match freely to dial in the exact look you want — from a sun-bleached classic to a punchy modern colorway.

A note on complications: this face has no extra complication slots beyond the ones used by Retro Watch Complication. The goal is a clean, faithful recreation of a single-purpose digital watch — not a hybrid info-dashboard. If you need calendar, weather, or messaging shortcuts on the face, take a look at the other CELEST designs.
