What Time? — The Reluctant Watchface

Why do you even need to know the time? This watchface is designed to ask exactly that. At first glance, it refuses to give you numbers. Instead, it greets your habitual wrist-flick with a simple, mildly sarcastic question: What Time?

When you flick your wrist or press a button, it doesn't cave immediately. With a smooth animation, it reveals its true philosophy: Time Doesn't Matter. It’s an absurd, meta reminder to stop tracking every passing second and just experience the present.

But since you live in the real world and actually need to know, you can force its hand. Yielding to your demand, it eventually gives in and types out the actual time alongside one of 20 randomized complaints, such as "Fine, it's 14:23." or "Do I have to? 14:23."  

This reluctant reveal is a comedic nod to growing up. Eventually, we all have to compromise with the giant, ticking gears of society—but we can at least do it with a final hint of stubbornness. Once its duty is done, the words quietly retreat.

[ Features & Under the Hood ]

Hyper Battery-Efficient: Because it refuses to tell the time unprompted, it doesn't need to wake up and redraw the screen every minute. This stubbornness translates to incredible battery life.

Customizable Apathy: Dive into the settings to tailor the watchface's attitude. You can adjust the reveal delay, toggle the typewriter text animation, and customize the background and text colors.  

Tap-to-Reveal (Coming Soon): The ability to tap the screen directly is built into the newest PebbleOS, but the developer SDK hasn't unlocked it for us yet. The moment the SDK allows it, an update will be pushed to support screen-tapping!
