Unique Properties: Simple Code II has a unique feature that the components, such as weather and step count, shift their position to avoid overlapping the blue hands. It is an easy-to-read watch face. The blue translucent hands not only shows the beauty, but also maintain the readability. The date is the center of the whole dial so that user can find out what the date is in a glance. In the middle, the month, the date and the day form a line which cut through the dial in half to create the visual balance.

Design Challenge: The biggest challenge is to convey the modern beauty, the comfort for eyes, the hands cannot block the information behind yet still have good looking.
Research: Started with a very simple idea: make it easy to read. That's why it's called "Simple Code". After done the first prototype, put in more ideas such as translucent hands and still with ease telling time.
Inspiration: The Simple Code II is from the first version which is just a prototype. The idea is to put the date in the center of the dial, so user can find the date effortlessly. That's it. That's where inspiration came from. After that, for further convenience, the hands became translucent so that they will not obstruct the other information behind them. Every effort is for readability while still maintain the neat.
