I totally agree - after trying out multiple faces I settled on Infograph also. I can see at a glance the day and date, the next upcoming event, my battery level, and the temperature range and current temp at my present location, as well as when it will rain or snow next ,and the digital time. I still have 2 more complications unused, which I may fill in as time goes on. But as it stands, I can see all the info I commonly need at a quick glance, and if I need more details I can get it with one press. Since I am a boomer I prefer an analog watch face, which allows me to glance at my watch for an instant to know the time without having to engage my left hemisphere at all.
I use Nike Hybrid the most. It has 5 complications instead of 4, there is one additional on the ring. And it has a digital dial what I prefer. Solar Dial is my second favourite. (With digital dial too...) Not only because it is spectacular, but you can read out instantly the sunset and sunrise times, which are useful in wintertime. (So it has an additional in built complication for me...) The 4 corners are free to customize. Solar analog for festive occasions, with only date and step count as complications. I love that it is simple and classy. I use this 3 faces the most. Infograph has the most complications but it hard to read the exact time, and for me, esthetically not pleasing. There are some good 3rd party watchfaces, which add complications which compress more data into one single complication. (par example: "wather with temp+rain+min and max temp+clouds" or step count + heart rate) They mostly use Meridian as watchface, and 4 custom made graphic complications make the watchface unique. For me Facer seems to be the best 3rd party solution.
I have an Ultra and I really like the Wayfinder.. 9 or 10 complications using the compass ring with Latitude and Longitude. Plus it looks cool in night mode!
Infograph is indeed the Watch face with most complications and have used it a lot. But - since WatchOS 10 I have a very analog traditional Watch face and the I use the crown to scroll down to the additional “complications” like weather, activity, shares and so on.
I had been using your number two choice since I've had an Apple watch. I just changed to your number one. I will try it for a while. Love the number of apps easily accessible.
I find the modular ones to be the most useful ones. Using Modular Ultra as my main and Modular for my work focus. I find round watch faces look pretty weird and don't fit well the rectangular shape of the watch.
The only face I use is the photographs with day/date/time and today’s exercise details. Whekn things get stressful it reminds me of what is really important.
Since I first got my Apple Watch I had most of the time always used Modular. Coming across this though, I am going to give Infograph a shot to see how I like it. Already, I hope for a way to change the color of the watch arms. Aside from that, I think that is really my only complaint about the face at the moment.
Great video! Thank you for sharing your test results! I really appreciate it very much as it hones into the best ones for me to try. This saves me a lot of time.
im a toss between "solar" and "ULtra Modular" as my primay faces with the ultra modular you have 7 widgets that you can add to the face 8 if you change the seconds display to altitude or depth
@Nathan, Very nice review presented by you that will surely help lot of people struggling to figure out right watch face for them. Can you please help me with the colour of Infograph watch face shown in the video.
Infograph is bad due to small time size so it’s not the best the one with 4 corners of info or modular duo is best also Nike compact is pretty good too it’s like modular compact
@@NathanLemoine I have one but being an android man they have a limited use for me. They look the best watch out there, feel great on the wrist just have limited use unless you download best apps. Jury still out prefer the Galaxy watch 6 has samsung browser that works and supports whatsapp out the box.
Yah I get it, I used a pixel for half of last year and it really made the Apple Watch almost useless. Such a shame Apple doesn’t let them work with other brands
@@NathanLemoine Beautifully designed watch (i already returned an SE 3rd gen). i can send it back before February.... hmmm really on the fence, the watch faces are beautiful and swipping through them is v. slick. Cant sleep with it on too big lol.
You add these watch faces by going into your “watch” app on your iPhone, and going over to the “face gallery” tab at the bottom of the screen! There you can select any of these and customize them and set it as your current watch face 😇
We have 2 ultra watches , I do see an app that lets you adjust the size of the dates but I just want to stick with Apple faces . Just need to keep my glasses on . The ultra rocks . Love it @@NathanLemoine
I didn't even bother watching as this video won't show the most usable watch face, the Modular Ultra, because it's a regular Apple Watch Series. The Ultra also has the most usable screen, as it's straight and doesn't glare at the edges like the curved screen on the regular Apple Watch Series. Also, the Ultra has better glass protection because it's recessed into the case, not to mention sapphire.
Love my apple 8, have an apple 9 packed away unopened for 2025. Really dislike the watch faces. My favorite is Fitbit versa 4 (no longer use). Fitbit is google doomed Absolute must on watch face 1. battery 2. complete date (retired sometimes need to look) 3. steps (10,000 to 15,000 a day) 4. heartbeat (resting 49 to 54) 5. time in large digital #'s (old fat and ugly need glasses)
Modular Ultra for my Ultra watch and Modular for my series 9. I tend to like the digital times better. Why would I want a face that looks like a regular watch? Boring! 😀
Infograph all day long. Messages, current temp, high and low temp, next event, day, date, pic of daughter and wife for touch call or text, time, Apple Pay, timer, workouts. Without a doubt the best for me.
I find the Snoopy watch face the most useful. It makes me smile and some days I just need to smile 😊
Love snoopy 🥰
For me, I generally use Micky Mouse (in the original Black & White) -- but the Snoopy animations are great!
Mine too who doesn’t love snoopy , they added more snoopy faces in 17.3 . You’ll have 2 snoopys to pick from not just 1 , so I just switch.
@@thestooges3332 Snoopy’s? Since when??
@@goudendynamiethd2117 since 17.3 OS. There’s 2 now.

Trying these out now, thanks for the advice! Just curious what complication do you use on the ring for the Nike one?
I have an Ultra and I really like the Wayfinder.. 9 or 10 complications using the compass ring with Latitude and Longitude. Plus it looks cool in night mode!
All said and done.. but still the vanishing weather compilation bug haunts the series.
apple watch is the way to go.. so many info in just one glance
California round. 5 complications and still looks uncluttered. Class. 👌🏽
Infograph is indeed the Watch face with most complications and have used it a lot. But - since WatchOS 10 I have a very analog traditional Watch face and the I use the crown to scroll down to the additional “complications” like weather, activity, shares and so on.
Very true, the new interface makes all watch faces much better! I was just talking about the faces itself for this video :)
@@NathanLemoine
And indeed it was a very good walk through and I agree with your assessment.
Modular Ultra and Wayfinder have just as many
Infograph is awesome, but Apple needs to give a option to remove the pointers, because sometimes they block the part view of gadget
I'm a modular guy. I have batt, date, time ,workout rings, heart and exercise is all I need.
I had been using your number two choice since I've had an Apple watch. I just changed to your number one. I will try it for a while. Love the number of apps easily accessible.
I hope you end up enjoying it 🫡
Thank you so much iam using the infograph the same watch face which u recommend in your old video
You're very welcome! So glad you still use it especially from one of my videos over a year ago :)🩵
I charge my Series 9 on a daily basis, yes on the second day its on 50% but I don't want to spend the second day worrying about battery life...
I was browsing for a video like this! Great job!
Glad to have helped! Which one are you going with??

Absolute facts. Love this🩵
Great video! I like to put my calendar on infograph on the top sub dial because it shows your upcoming event on iCal
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻 and calendar is such a great complication
Hope you don’t mind: I modeled my Infograph watch face after your Infograph setup. It’s my favorite too! Excellent review!

The G.O.A.T is Infograph 👑
100%🔥
Top notch video once again! Impressive intro! Can any of these faces be used on older apple watch?
Thank you so much! And yes, most of these are available for older apple watches if they support the newer operating systems :)
I really like that blue striped watch band! Could I ask where you got it from?
How did uou get the clock with seconds in sub dial top where is it present i am using apple watch series 9
Great video! Thank you for sharing your test results! I really appreciate it very much as it hones into the best ones for me to try. This saves me a lot of time.
im a toss between "solar" and "ULtra Modular" as my primay faces with the ultra modular you have 7 widgets that you can add to the face 8 if you change the seconds display to altitude or depth
Yah I wasn’t counting the ultra because I don’t have one 😂🥲 I’m sure there’s a large difference of faces with that one!
Yes Infograph is my favourite, modular is second 👍🏾👍🏾
Same here 🫡
Best 4 Complications
NOT RANKED IN ORDER
1) Date
2) Weather
3) Battery
4) Some Fitness or health complication
Great review; send the watch band link so I can purchase
My favorite watch face on my Series 9 is GMT, but when I want something a little classier I switch to Solar Analog.
The solar analog is a really clean looking watch face, and you can never go wrong with a classic GMT 🔥
@@NathanLemoine I've tried switching it up for variety, but I keep coming back to those two.

@Nathan, Very nice review presented by you that will surely help lot of people struggling to figure out right watch face for them. Can you please help me with the colour of Infograph watch face shown in the video.
Great tutorial thank you , oh what is the symbol on the right middle moon shape ?
But how's battery life between each one? I just bought an SE2 on Monday so still in the process of getting it setup right
I haven’t noticed any battery difference between the watch faces! Should be pretty of battery with the SE 2!
@@NathanLemoine Wonderful. Thanks for the response
Keep killing it bro 🥶🙏
Back from a family vacation and twill be absolutely killing it now 🫡🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Totally agree with number 1. Thanks.
4:45 that band is heavenly.
Where did you get your “non Apple” Watchbands from? Especially the Leather ones?
They look very nice.
I’d like to know this info as well. He didn’t respond to anybody’s request about the leather band 😂
Infograph is bad due to small time size so it’s not the best the one with 4 corners of info or modular duo is best also Nike compact is pretty good too it’s like modular compact
Is the Nathan wearing an analog watch while talking about Apple Watch?
The Nathan most certainly is! Won’t catch me without one 😮💨
More complications burn the battery fast as they constantly refresh.
Great video thanks
Great video.
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻
Can the font size be increased, I use for blood sugar readings?
Good effort and something a bit different. The text is difficult to read on the Apple watches especially with lots of complications.
Completely agree, the ultra will probably help with the small text but I don’t have the funds for one 😂🥲

I like how he kept saying complications instead of compilation. lol
No they are complications on a watch😂
Does info graph use more battery life?
Modular ultra is my favourite
I can imagine! Even better than mine😵💫
How to show the time digitaly on the infograph?
i literally have an apple watch series 1 and i cant get modular, metropolitian and palette😭😭😭
why cant u remove the watch hands on the winning one? who wants that anyway?
Where can we download them?
They're all in the watch app on your iPhone!
My issue is the date on most faces are just to small
Yah they are definitely small. I know it’s expensive but the Apple Watch ultra would make them all slightly larger!
We have 2 ultra watches , I do see an app that lets you adjust the size of the dates but I just want to stick with Apple faces . Just need to keep my glasses on . The ultra rocks . Love it

I don’t see ultra in the video title 🙄
I disagree. Playtime really should be the real No. 1. 😅
Is that Groton CT
Why are you not wearing an Apple Watch while taping this video?
Did you figure this out all by yourself or did you watch someone else's videos first?
By myself :) I tried them all out!
Love my apple 8, have an apple 9 packed away unopened for 2025. Really
dislike the watch faces. My favorite is Fitbit versa 4 (no longer use). Fitbit is google doomed
Absolute must on watch face
1. battery
2. complete date (retired sometimes need to look)
3. steps (10,000 to 15,000 a day)
4. heartbeat (resting 49 to 54)
5. time in large digital #'s (old fat and ugly need glasses)
9 way tie is crazy hahaha. #norules
Modular Ultra for my Ultra watch and Modular for my series 9. I tend to like the digital times better. Why would I want a face that looks like a regular watch? Boring! 😀
Thnx’s
Anytime 🫡
you keep saying complications... aint they widgets?
No they are called complications
i mean they look and work like widgets to me@@Zaidoesstuff

@@NathanLemoine nice watch, very nice watch
Aye thank you, appreciate it very much 🫡🙏🏻
The lack of good watch faces and customization is one of the biggest reasons I regret getting an Apple Watch.
Rolex and Apple have not outsold the Casio F-91W
I like the Siri one but there’s two problems, she’s stupid and also they show me things that I don’t care like take a 1 minute…
why are all the apple simps just focssing on Ultras? Is that the only one they get for free. I want to see a video like this for the SE.
I don’t have an ultra haha, this is a series 7 😅
The watch being used is NOT an Ultra!
Womp womp wommmmmmmmp
Eee oooh
@@NathanLemoine how u do it ? That resting heart rate cards on siri watchface ?
Can someone please do a video without thumping bass music running everyone out of the room?!
