In an effort to see what the GUI on the finished watch could look like, I formatted the default screen image of the iPod Nano that my OLED Watch v4.2 sits in a case for that is seen in this test to see what kind of detail and color I could get out of a set of Icons, the time, and a background image. I'm amazed at the results, and with a GUI of my own design, this watch will not only be functional and sport many cool hardware features, but also have a smooth, easy to use GUI to go along with it. Even crudely fitted into this wrist case, it clearly resembles a sleek and beautiful smart watch, and in its own 3d modeled and printed case, it will look just as good as it will perform. This test has made me even more excited to assemble my first prototype as early as this weekend when the latest revision's pcbs arrive from Bay Area Circuits.
