FORKLIFT CERTIFIED
Pallets spell the time. A forklift moves them.

Welcome to the warehouse.

Forklift Certified turns your watch into a tiny top-down loading dock. The time is spelled out in pallets — stacked into pixel-block digits, hours on top and minutes on the bottom. Every minute a little yellow forklift wakes up, drives out, and physically picks up, carries, and sets down the pallets it needs to rebuild the digits that changed. Then it reverses back to its charging bay and waits for the next minute.

When several digits change at once (like an hour rollover), the forklift calls in its crew — up to four trucks roll out of the loading-dock doors at the same time, each rebuilding its own digit, steering around each other and the pallets as they go.

It is a clock you will actually want to watch tick over.

FEATURES

• Pallets form the digits — a real warehouse floor, not just numbers on a screen
• A forklift that genuinely drives, turns, reverses, lifts and carries each pallet into place
• Up to 4 forklifts working together when multiple digits change
• Charging bay doubles as the battery gauge (green / yellow / red on color watches, a filling level on black-and-white)
• Centered date display
• Follows your watch's 12h / 24h setting
• Battery friendly — the screen only updates once a minute

JR Shinkansen — Tōkaidō・Sanyō Shinkansen watchface
Version 1.0.0


DESCRIPTION

Your wrist becomes a Shinkansen platform nameboard — and the station tells the time.

This watchface puts you on the Tōkaidō・Sanyō Shinkansen, riding Tokyo ⇄ Hakata across all 35 stations. The line is the clock: one full run of the line takes one hour, and the train reverses direction every hour. At the top of an even hour you're at Tōkyō, rolling station-by-station toward Hakata and arriving by ~:58; odd hours run the line back, Hakata → Tōkyō. Which station is showing tells you the minute — and for the exact time, just read the platform clock, the way every Shinkansen platform has one.

It's a real nameboard at every moment: the authentic station name in kanji, hiragana, and rōmaji, the boxed kanji station code, the JR wordmark, and a line-coloured strip carrying the rōmaji with the previous and next stops. The colour follows the operating company along the route — JR Central orange on the Tōkaidō, JR West blue on the Sanyō — and an optional direction chevron follows the way you're travelling. When the station changes, the board moves on like an arriving train.


FEATURES

• Authentic Shinkansen nameboard (新幹線駅名標) — cream board with the station name in kanji / hiragana / rōmaji, a boxed kanji station code, the JR wordmark, and a line-coloured strip with the real adjacent stations.

• Company-aware colours — Tōkaidō stations show JR Central orange, Sanyō stations show JR West blue.

• Travel-direction chevron (optional) — a ">" or "<" beside the station name, pointing the way the train runs: toward Hakata on even hours, back toward Tokyo on odd hours. Turn it on in Settings.

• Tells time by riding the line — one full traverse = one hour across all 35 stops, reversing direction every hour, anchored to Tōkyō on the even hours and Hakata on the odd.

• Platform clock for the precise time (12- or 24-hour).

• Two selectable trains — the N700 series (duck-bill nose) or the 500 series (needle nose), single-door, shown in the cinematic transitions.

• Cinematic train transitions — choose Off (a quick sign slide), Cinematic Short (the same train rolls forward to the next car's door), or Cinematic Long (the whole train departs, a new one arrives, and its doors open onto the next station). Pick whether it plays on every station change or wrist-flick only.

• Tap or flick your wrist to peek — replays the transition on demand (and lights the screen).

• Two route lengths — ride the Full line (Tokyo ⇄ Hakata, 35 stops) or the Short Tōkaidō run (Tokyo ⇄ Shin-Ōsaka, 17 stops).

• Fits every Pebble screen — rectangular and round, colour and black-and-white, with adaptive layout so long names like Higashi-Hiroshima and Shin-Yamaguchi stay crisp. On round screens the JR wordmark mirrors the boxed station code, framing the board.

Your wrist becomes a JR East Yamanote Line platform — and the station tells the time.

The Yamanote Line circles central Tokyo in about 60 minutes, so this watchface turns one loop into one hour. Every two minutes the nameboard advances one station around all 30 stops: at the top of the hour you're at Tokyo (JY01), rolling station-by-station back around to Yūrakuchō by :58. Which station is showing tells you the minute — and for the exact time, just read the platform clock in the corner, the way every JR platform has one.

It's a real sign at every moment: the correct JY station number on the badge, the authentic station name in kanji, hiragana, and rōmaji, and the actual neighbouring stations on the green direction bar. When the station changes, the sign slides in like an arriving train and settles onto the platform.

Features
Authentic Yamanote nameboard (駅名標 ekimeihyō) — JY number badge, station name in kanji / kana / rōmaji, and the green directional arrow bar with the real adjacent stations.
Tells time the Yamanote way — one loop = one hour, a new station every two minutes across all 30 real stops, anchored to Tokyo on the hour.
Platform clock for the precise time (12- or 24-hour).
Train-arrival animation on every station change — the sign slides in and gives a little settle, like a train pulling into the platform.
Optional Yamanote Cinema transition — switch the station change to a full speed-ramped sequence: the green doors close over the sign, the camera pulls back to the whole E235 train, it departs, the next train arrives, and the doors open onto the new station. (Off by default.)
Tap or flick your wrist to peek — replays the animation on demand (and lights the screen).
Dark mode and Timeline Quick View support — the board steps aside when a timeline event peeks in.
Fits every Pebble screen — rectangular and round, colour and black-and-white, with layouts tuned so the Japanese names always stay crisp and uncut.
