watchface

Clock's visible surface

A watchface is the dial of a watch—the surface displaying time, typically with numbers or markers and hands.

On smartwatches, the watchface is a customizable digital display that can show time alongside other information: I downloaded a new watchface that shows my step count.

Users often swap watchfaces to match their style or needs.
