Unique Properties
TTMM is a collection of 40 clock face apps designed for Fitbit Versa and Fitbit Versa Lite smartwatches. It turns Fitbit smartwatch into a unique time-machine. All the clock faces have color presets and complications settings that are controlled through a tap-to-change on screen feature. Some models are additionally equipped with a stopwatch, a timer, an alarm or a torch feature. There is also a special clock face called the Onettmm, with 30 different clock faces in one, which allows the user to quickly change between the designs to adapt to the required mood or style.
Dimensions & Packaging
Clock faces codes take up from 7Kb to 2Mb.

Production Technology
All clock faces were designed in Adobe Illustrator. All bitmaps were edited in Adobe Photoshop. Programming was made with Fitbit sdk in Fitbit Studio software.
Design Challenge
The main challenges were to use fonts in proper weight and scale for them to be legible on a wrist-sized screen and to design the setting interface - the on screen tap-to-change feature - as a way to easy to adjust the display options: the complications or color presets. Moreover, to save the space for graphic icons or descriptions I came up with my own symbols to be used in the legend, such as: % for battery, . for steps, ... for distance, : for heart rate, * for calories, + for floors.
Research
I made my own clock faces market observation and analysis. I used desk research and critical thinking methods, through which I discovered that there was very little original thinking in the design of the clock faces and that the Fitbit Versa smartwatch offers a good hardware environment for creating a new vision of time.
I found that the most of the projects available for the Fitbit Versa smartwatch are mare imitations of mechanical clocks and 80'ties quartz lcd-like screens or just replicas of clock faces of the popular brands. During the design phase I experimented a lot with inventing new designs which balance out between functional design and original form giving a new meaning of time.
Inspiration
The inspiration for collection comes form three different areas: sci-fi movies, electronic music and the idea behind Tokyo Flash Japan. The movies that inspired me the most are: 2001 Space Odyssey, Blade Runner and Interstellar and the music that influenced me during my work was the album "Computer World" by Kraftwerk.
Project Duration
The project started in December 2017 and finished in March 2019 in Warsaw, Poland. The programming took place in France and in Poland.
Operation Flow
All the clock faces can be uploaded to Fitbit Versa through the Ttmm app (available for Android and iOS). With the app you can view the design, read the description, purchase and upload clockfaces and prepare a favorite models list to facilitate the swapping between clockfaces. After the upload the user can set colors, display design and complications with the tap-to-change on screen feature. This user friendly interface makes the customization of the clockface very fast and smooth.
