Ok G1N, So I won’t get to use this one (No UL) but I can still admire the work that went into it! It’s a great looking face…but the idea of using the Spring tension as a battery indicator… It is so subtle…using a working part of the watch as the indicator, rather than something separate from the mechanism…is pure imaginative genius! Now you and the good @Dr_Andy_Vishnu would know that I hate praising the Mods for anything (Except for @Eric_Crochemore …he is a nice guy! ) But when you guys turn out faces like this…wow! Cheers, “You called G1N a “Genius”? Oh God! We’ll never hear the end of it now”!! , Doons
Many Thanks. In fact, I already did most of the work 2 years ago. together it was more than 60 hours of work. Maybe I can also do an SL version, I’ll take a look at it again.
Hi G1N…say don’t go messing with a SL version just for me mate (Lets face it, I gotta be the last member of the Forum who still uses SL, right? …Well maybe @Dr_Andy_Vishnu too! ) I’ve downloaded the face…who knows? I might be dragged…kicking & screaming … into the “My watch uses UL” brigade one day! ) But truly G1N…using that spring tension as a power indicator is I think the most imaginative idea I have ever seen on the forum. Cheers, “You still use SL Doons? Man I thought that was against the law” , Doons
For God’s sake- no, Doons. If I should do it, I won’t do it for you. To be honest, you’re way below my houseplant on my priority list. And it’s almost dried up, which is amazing considering it’s a cactus… If I do it, I will do it solely for myself. On the one hand because I want to prevent you from wondering for the rest of your life how you can ever pay this debt - and on the other hand because I am a self-confessed egoist and love myself the most of all people on earth. At least that’s what my boss told me last week when I refused to work more than 60 hours a week.
You put in a lot of work, it has a tailor-made result . Exceptional! Do you have any other hidden jewelry? The idea of power using a spring is super cool. Congratulations, added to the collection and to one of the watches.
Well G1N…I’ve been compared to a lotta things in my day…Sean Connery…Paul Newman…Tony Curtis, etc…to mention but a few …but running second to a dying cactus house plant is a first! But I’ve said it before (Often to @Dr_Andy_Vishnu!) …and by golly I’ll say it again…as a Moderator G1N might be a dead loss (Total agreement from @Eric_Crochemore here I might add! ) and a “self-confessed egoist and love myself the most of all people on earth” (Hell no false modesty there Fellow Forum, members!) But at least he tells it like it is! Ok G1N, I’ll suffer in silence (Yeah right! ) about owing you a debt that can never be repaid! Cheers, “Doons, are you really gonna shut up?! Oh get real”!! , Doons
Thank you @vladimir_lutzu . In fact, I’m not hiding anything, I post all the finished work here. Ok, some difficult projects are still waiting for problem solving before I can publish it. In fact, I already posted this idea with the spring as a battery indicator 2 years ago.
Ok, I have made some tests. I’m quite sure that I will be able to create a full functional stocklauncher version of this face. For stocklauncher 7.1 and higher.
I’ve already done the most of the work. I’ll need some more time…
Oh Boy! I’ll bet your Cactus is jealous that you are doing something for someone else (Oh why pretend Kiddies, he is doing it for the ole Doons! ) rather than sitting and staring intently at it…and waiting for it to die! , Cheers, “So G1N, what will you do when your Cactus is dead”? “Oh there are plenty of Flies to pull the wings off”! , Doons
felt like nobody noticed this:
You might have a look at it. It is a running text that changes.
Yada, Yada, Yada…UL this & UL that! Boy! Just because I said I am thinking of downloading UL, all of a sudden G1N parades an endless…er…parade…of UL faces!! Alright already! So the Martian Notifier is a great, innovative face! But I am willing to be that the only text that comes across the screen is " I am a self-confessed egoist and love myself the most of all people on earth…signed G1N’! Ok G1N, so I downloaded this one too…for the day I go “Techno crazy” Cheers, “I’ll bet @Eric_Crochemore is paying G1N to post UL faces to make sure Doons downloads UL”! , Doons
Ok, I have spend some hours to realize that I’m not able to make it fully work on stocklaucher. I’m sorry.
It’s a plot! I tell Ya fellow Forum members…it’s a plot to get Doons to use UL!!!
Say G1N…not too worry mate! I appreciate you at least trying to make it work for SL…and yes, I will be using UL in the near future…so I’ll still get to see that fantastic face! Cheers, Doons
I’ll try to make a “.watch” version that allows for a dim mode.
@Doonsbury :However, UL will be necessary…
Ok, I just finished the “.watch” version. I just have to add a dim mode. I’ll try to publish it tomorow.
A well known member, who wishes to remain anonymous (Rest assured @Dr_Andy_Vishnu , I shall respect your desire for anonymity! Opppsssss ) asked me to post this for him. It purports to show @G1NT0N1C busily working on a watch face while two Forum members…tentatively identified as @pablo11 & the lovable ole Doons await the outcome of G1N’s labors! Cheers, “I wonder why the good Dr wouldn’t post this himself”? , Doons
Thats funny
Glad you liked it Andy! It hangs on the wall of my Watchmaker and I thought, this belongs on the Forum…the guys will get a laugh out of it! So I took a snap of it with my phone and got written permission from my Watchmaker to use it ( ) and “Thar She Be”! Cheers, “He’s had your watch HOW long”?!, Doons
I just added a “.watch” version with nightmode. Enjoy.
