DIALFORGE
Ridge Sunrise

7-day free trial, then a one-time 3.99 EUR unlock code at dialforge.dev. No subscription.

A sunset over a mountain ridge on the whole screen. The time stays on the left, so the peak and the sun on the right stay in view.

  • Background: 3 mountain photos (Sunset ridge, Valley, Mountain lake) or black, darkened under the digits.
  • 10 accent colours, picked on the watch with a live preview, plus a Popular list.
  • 3 data fields from 47 options: two round fields at the top and one under the time. Defaults: heart rate, steps and battery.
  • Top line: your watch model name or your own text (up to 12 characters, set in Garmin Connect), or nothing.
  • Day and date under the time, in 13 languages. 12 or 24 hour time.
  • Always-on mode: only the dimmed time on black, shifted every minute. No seconds, no animation.

When Garmin has no data for a field, the face shows "--" instead of a made-up value.

After 7 days without a code the face still shows the time, with default settings and a small UNLOCK DIALFORGE.DEV note.

Popular color sets: for that list only an anonymous color number is sent.

Garmin does not give watch faces access to HRV status or Training Readiness, so no Connect IQ watch face can show them.

Settings: on the watch (hold MENU, then Watch face, then Customize) or in the Garmin Connect app on your phone.

A little request from the maker

Dialforge is my student project. I build these watch faces after classes, so they are still at an early stage, and I could not test every watch model myself. If something looks wrong on your watch, please do not leave a negative rating: write to me first at https://dialforge.dev/faces/ridgesunrise/ and I will fix it, usually within 24 hours. A kind review means more to me than you can imagine. And if you like my work, you can buy me a coffee (the link is at the bottom of dialforge.dev): I am saving up to pay for my studies. Thank you for your patience and for giving a young developer a chance.

Permissions and privacy

This product asks the watch for the permissions below. Connect IQ shows them when you install it.

  • Sensor history: Reads recent values stored by the watch (for example Body Battery, stress, heart rate, steps trend).
  • Your profile: Reads your Garmin profile on the watch (for example age, weight, heart rate zones) to calculate values for you.
  • Watch data (complications): Shows data from other watch features, such as battery or steps, on the face.
  • Background process: Lets the app run short tasks in the background, for example reminders.
  • Internet through the phone: Lets the watch make a web request through your phone. Used only for the colour service described below.

Popular colour sets service

Every 6 hours the face downloads the list of popular colour sets from dialforge.dev. If you changed the colour set, it also sends that set's number. The request contains only the number, the face name and the face version. It contains no watch ID, no unlock code and no e-mail. We count choices, not people. Details: privacy policy.
