New Year Ball Drop Watch Face

A festive New Year's Eve watch face for Wear OS: fireworks over a glowing city skyline, a sparkling crystal ball on a golden mast, big glowing digital time, the date, a New Year countdown and two complications.

WHAT IT SHOWS
• Big digital time in glowing white figures, 12 or 24 hours.
• Day and month.
• New Year countdown in December: days to New Year, then hours on New Year's Eve, minutes in the last hour and seconds in the last minute. Happy New Year on January 1. It can be switched off.
• Two complications along the bottom: steps and battery to start with, or heart rate, calendar, weather and more.

CRYSTAL BALL DROP
On December 31 at 23:59 the crystal ball drops down the mast second by second, like the famous New Year ball drop, while the countdown shows the final seconds.

CONFETTI ANIMATION
On every hour, and on a tap, the ball flashes and gold confetti bursts across the sky. Nothing else moves, so it is gentle on your battery.

COLOURS AND SETTINGS
• Crystal ball light: gold-violet, ice blue or rose.
• Night sky: night blue, violet or black.
• New Year countdown: on or off.
• Two customizable complications.

ALWAYS-ON DISPLAY
The time as thin white outlines, the ball as a dim outline and the countdown, dim on black.
