Details

Your photo. A timeless frame.

A photo at the centre, a watch around it

Your picture fills a circle in the middle of the dial; the chapter ring around it carries gold-edged ivory baton markers, a double marker at 12 and a fine minute track. Changing the frame colour never touches the photo.

Seven frames

Emerald, Navy, Burgundy, Violet, Graphite, Champagne or Holographic — a static iridescent finish, not an animation. Pick it on the watch or in Connect IQ settings.

Paired with a QR from the watch

Until it has a picture, the face shows a QR code and a six-character code. Scan it, frame the photo on a pixel-exact preview, apply it, and the watch picks it up through Garmin Connect, usually within five to ten minutes.

Your photo is not kept

The original never leaves your phone; only the finished background is uploaded, and it is deleted from our server as soon as the watch confirms it. Always-on shows only dim hands and hour marks; the optional second hand is off by default.

How to add your photo

Install the face, scan the QR on the watch, choose and crop a photo, and wait for the watch to confirm.

How photo watch faces work: install a photo face, scan the QR on the watch, upload and frame your photo, apply to watch, wait for it to appear. Your photo is not stored.
