V1.0 Extremely data-rich “glance” watch face for Instinct 2/Instinct 2 Solar built off jfp1986's watchface 621d257065d55. Contains many elements from Open Weather Map (OWM), so if you don't have an API, you will see quite a few blanks. I prefer to see as much as possible at a glance so I literally crammed as much as I could, but metrics can easily be deleted to make screen less cluttered. As shown, this watchface shows 27 different items, with two additional on gesture. Definitely utility over aesthetics, but I'm happy with it. As I learn the different capabilities of this builder I will continue to update it, but feel free to use it as a template for yourself!

*Note - some elements do not show in the correct positions on the simulator, but are correct and legible on the actual watch. There should be no overlapping except as intended in the lower charts.
