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.

It's from the first version of a prototype called Simple Code which was done in WatchMaker app. After a few trials and changes, the ideas are getting more and more confirmed. Eventually the ideas became the second version, Simple Code II.
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.
Project Duration
I started designing the prototype in May 2018. It was done in June 2018 in Singapore.
