Description

Typeset turns your Pebble Time 2 into a revolving display case of twelve historically inspired numeral sets. Bodoni's didone hairlines at midnight, Caslon's English old-style at dawn, Paul Renner's geometric Futura through the morning, Adrian Frutiger's humanist sans at noon, Claude Garamond's Renaissance cuts in the afternoon, Justus Walbaum's German classicism into the evening. Six more cycle through in between, each attributed museum-style with its designer, country, and year.

Four paper-and-ink themes let the same numerals live on pure black, Oxford blue, white paper, or warm cream, pick by mood, or by the hour. Every glyph is hand-drawn for the rectangular e-paper display so the hairlines of Bodoni and Walbaum stay sharp at any light. The year is rendered with fixed-width tabular figures so 1948 and 1957 never misalign, because if we had shipped that we would have heard about it.
