A sets the lume color, the lume glow and every color role at once. Change single colors afterwards; choosing another scheme replaces them again.
MIP watches show 64 colors, so their colors are the nearest panel colors and a scheme switches the lume glow off there.
Dial and lume
Background, lume color and glow set the look of the dial. Background options: Dark (default), Light.
Watch: Settings › Appearance · Phone: Connect IQ app › Appearance



Dark shows the black dial with the lume glow around the indexes. Light fills the dial with the hand color (or with the lume color while Hand color is Automatic); texts, indexes and hands then switch to colors that read on it, and any chosen color too close to the dial is replaced by a readable one.
Lume color has 13 colors (default Mint) and tints the glow behind the indexes. Lume glow switches the glow off; it is on by default on AMOLED watches and off on MIP watches, where the glow is a fine dot pattern.
Index color tints the numerals and indexes; its Automatic choice is the lume color at 80 % lightness.
A light dial lights many more AMOLED pixels and uses more battery while awake. The always-on display always stays dark.
Hands
Three hand designs, two styles for the hour and minute hands and separate colors for the hands, the GMT hand and the second hand.
Watch: Settings › Appearance › Hand design, Hour hand style, Minute hand style, Hand color, GMT hand color, Second hand color · Phone: Connect IQ app › Appearance




Classic hands: hour Lume, minute Lume.
Hand design: Classic (default), Baton (straight hands with a pointed tip) or Ornate (openwork hands with several lume windows). The styles and colors apply to every design.
Hour hand style and Minute hand style: Lume (a black frame with lume inside) or Outline (the frame alone in the hand color). The minute hand is Outline by default.
Hand color offers Same as index color (default), Automatic (the lume at 80 % lightness) and the palette. Second hand color Black is a black needle; any other color tints the needle and keeps its black knob.

Text color (default Automatic, the lume color) sets the values, Label color the small labels and Custom text color the two custom texts.
Custom HEX Color 1 and 2 (defaults 00FF80, FF8000) are typed in the Connect IQ app or the web configurator and then picked as Custom 1 or Custom 2 for any role. MIP watches show the nearest panel color.
Show units (default On) shows or hides units such as KM, M or %.
Data fields
Eight fields: four outer fields along the bezel and four inner fields around the center, filled from about 100 metrics or an external complication.
Watch: Settings › Data fields · Phone: Connect IQ app › Data fields


The outer fields (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right) follow the bezel in one line: the short label and the value, such as ALT 4333M. The inner fields (top, bottom, left, right) show the label above the value.
Date in an inner field is the date wheel: yesterday, today and tomorrow with a marker at today. In an outer field it is the date in the chosen Date format.
1 and 2 (defaults HELLO and LUMARQ) are offered in the inner fields: up to 16 letters, digits and spaces, shown in capitals. An accented letter shows without its accent and any other character as a space; None leaves a field empty.
GPS position shows the last position the watch recorded, as 50.08N 14.42E or 50°05'N 14°25'E; the face cannot start GPS itself.
Touch shortcuts (default On): touch and hold a field’s text to open the Garmin view behind it, or the bezel to open the progress ring’s metric. With the ring off, the bezel opens the nearest outer field.

Progress ring and bezel scale
A ring under the bezel shows progress through the cut-out scale; out of the box it shows the battery.
Watch: Settings › Progress ring · Phone: Connect IQ app › Progress ring


The ring runs clockwise from 12 o’clock: the lit part in Progress ring color, the rest in Progress ring track color. It accepts metrics with a goal or range; the Goals settings set the targets Garmin does not provide.
Mode: Progress (default), Full (the whole ring lit) or Off. Bezel scale chooses the numbers of the scale: 0-60 min (default), 0-12 h, 0-24 h or 0-100 %. The scale is decoration and does not change what the ring measures.
Date, time and GMT
12 date formats for Date in an outer field, a GMT hand and a second hand.
Watch: Settings › Date and time · Phone: Connect IQ app › Date and time



The is a 24-hour arrow showing Alternate timezone 1: one turn a day, midnight at 12 o’clock. With the 0-24 h bezel scale it reads directly against the scale. GMT hand switches it off.
Seconds switches the second hand off (on MIP watches it is the always-on seconds marker). Smooth seconds (AMOLED, experimental) sweeps the second hand while the watch is awake and costs battery.
Data time format (9:05 default, 09:05, Military) and Hide AM/PM set times inside fields. Alternate timezone 1 and 2 feed the Alt Time Zone metrics; their labels (up to 5 characters) are set in the Connect IQ app.
Weather and goals
Weather settings tune Smart and Upcoming weather; Goals set targets for metrics Garmin has no goal for.

Always-on display
AMOLED watches keep the hands lit on black: Full also shows the indexes, the scale and the fields dimmed, Minimal only the hands.
Watch: Settings › Always-On Display · Phone: Connect IQ app › Always-On Display






Mode: Full (default), Minimal. There are no seconds, and the center of the minute hand shows only its thin rim, so fewer pixels stay lit.
Day and Night brightness (Low, Medium, High; both Low by default) and the Day/night brightness schedule set the hands. In Full, Dial brightness sets the indexes and the scale and Data brightness the fields (15–100 %, both 60 % by default).
Colored AOD (default On) keeps tones of the scheme colors; Off uses gray. With the light background the always-on display stays dark.
Pixel shift (default On) moves the picture a few pixels every minute through nine positions to protect the screen.
MIP watches
MIP watches show the same dial with 64 colors and keep the whole face in low power.
Watch: Settings › Appearance · Phone: Connect IQ app › Appearance

The lume glow is drawn as a fine dot pattern and starts off. Low power keeps the complete face, updated once a minute; Seconds then shows an always-on seconds marker instead of the second hand.
Wizards and system
Two on-watch wizards set the look and the fields with a live preview; System holds the web configurator, Reset to defaults and Refresh data.
Watch: Settings › Appearance, Data fields, System · Phone: Connect IQ app › System
Appearance wizard (top of Appearance) steps through the appearance settings, Data setup wizard (top of Data fields) through the nine fields. Nothing is saved until Done › Apply; Back on the first step or Cancel keeps the previous settings.
System › Web configurator shows the configurator’s QR code and the last download state. Reset to defaults restores every setting after a No/Yes question; Refresh data reads all values again. User Guide shows a QR code to this page.
Questions
I entered the web code. Why hasn’t the watch changed yet?
The watch downloads the setup in the background within 5 minutes and needs the phone connected. A code is valid for 24 hours; System › Web configurator on the watch shows the last result.
Why does a field show --?
The watch has no value yet: weather needs the phone, GPS position needs a position the watch recorded, and an external complication needs an app that publishes one. Some metrics exist only on some watches.
A hand covers a field. How do I read it?
Touch and hold the center of the dial; the hands disappear for a few seconds (Hide hands for, 2 to 10 s).
Why did choosing a color scheme change my colors?
A scheme sets the lume color, the glow and every color role at once. Pick the scheme first, then adjust single colors.
Why are there no seconds in always-on mode?
AMOLED watches never show the second hand in always-on mode, to save power and protect the screen. On MIP watches Seconds keeps an always-on seconds marker instead.
How do I change GARMIN and LUMARQ in the center?
The inner top and bottom fields show Custom text 1 and 2 (HELLO and LUMARQ by default). Type your own text in the Connect IQ app or the web configurator (up to 16 letters, digits and spaces each, shown in capitals), or pick another metric.
Where do I pick an external complication?
Only on the watch: Settings › Data fields › field › External complication.
