Thanks, Paul! I’ve been thinking about having texture around the bezel, actually. I did a bit of sketching this morning on the train exploring different textures and materials. If I integrate an over-molded rubber into the bezel design, that would present a nice opportunity to add some color into the design.
I also did a bit of thinking on the interface and how you would see your day or your week displayed on the screen. Right now, I’m thinking that every time you rotate the bezel about 30 deg. it clicks into place and the display changes to week or month view.
Brett: I’m taking your advice with the static watch face after all, I think that makes the most sense.
If you guys have any suggestions I’d live to hear them! I think this weekend I’ll be revising my Illustrator mock ups to reflect the watch face changes, and possibly do a couple higher-quality sketches of the bezel design.
