Description

A retro Casio/LCD-style watchface for the Pebble Time 2, inspired by Quartz by Dalpek but built from scratch.

Features:
• Retro 7-segment LCD look with a dim "ghost segment" background simulating unlit LCD segments
• First-row complication: Steps, live Heart Rate (via HealthService), or Temperature (local weather, no API key needed)
• Central Face Color (White/Cyan/Green/Amber), Backlight Color (Pebble Time 2), Seconds Display (Hide/Show/Static/Power Save), Date Format, First Day of Week — all configurable
• Night Auto-Invert: swaps foreground/background during a configurable night window, both for a dim look and to mitigate LCD burn-in
• Anti Burn-in Shift: nudges the display by up to 1px daily on an 8-day cycle so no pixel stays lit or unlit for weeks
