Enjoying it so far. Only flaw is having to stay up until midnight to see when the sun is rising. Other than that I really like it.

The daylight clock shown is calculated based on your rough location, current time, and a great deal of math. No need for constant retrieval from the internet or sunset calendar.

The following information is shown on the watch:-The time in analog format-The time in digital format-The Day of the week-The Date-A battery symbol showing the battery life left on your watch. Color highlights around the edge of the dial illustrate the solar day. It includes: -The daylight hours highlighted in light blue-Civil Twilight Period - yellow preceding sunrise and orange following sunset-Nautical Twilight Period - dark blue before or after Civil Twilight-Astronomical Twilight - shown in purple. -Nighttime hours- shown as dark. There are three common subcategories of twilight, represented on the sunrise sunset clock (summarized from Wikipedia):Civil Twilight is a time when the sun is below the horizon, but there is generally enough light to carry out outdoor activities without artificial light. The brightest stars become visible as this ends. In Nautical Twilight, the horizon is indistinct, and general outlines of land features can be seen, It is considered to end when navigation by the horizon at sea is no longer possible. Astronomical Twilight may appear to be fully dark. Point sources of light such as stars are easily observable at its beginning, but dimmer sources, like distant galaxies, are only visible as it ends. Now that your Android Wear watch tells you sunrise and sunset times, you can use that information to support your outdoor activities. Use it to determine hunting times, fishing times, hiking times, or photography times. Any activity which relies on a certain amount of sunlight should be enhanced.

Installed it on my moto360 and it shows sunrise at 8:30 am and sunset at 8:50 pm. Time off by more than 2 hours as well as impossible for September anyplace.
It doesn't show the right sunrise time and you can't get the battery life icon off the screen.
Love the look of the face but really wonder how only 12 hours at a time of sunset or sunrise is useful. If it is 11:30am and want to quickly see when sunset is it still shows sunrise...not useful since I need sunset not a reminder of when sunrise was this morning. Perhaps provide an option to change this to user preference.
Really cool concept! Had a few requests when I first got it and the developer was responsive - looking forward to this being a daily face now.
I love this watch face! The only thing I would add is battery monitor for the phone.
Functional and different enough for a change from the norm. Developer very helpful and responsive to query.
