Version 1.1.2
First released 4 Nov 2026. Updates are free and install by themselves.
- 1.1.25 Nov 2026
- New setting "Outer ring": Metal (as designed), Seconds (the case ring fills up second by second and starts again every minute), Battery (the ring shows the charge) or Off. The dial now reaches the screen edge under the ring, and the ring takes the "Time and details" colour too.
- Metric number size "Large" now makes every number clearly bigger (steps as 7.8k where 7,842 does not fit).
- Sunrise and sunset now show even when the weather has no location: the watch's own sunrise and sunset come first, then the weather's location, then the watch's last position.
- 1.1.14 Nov 2026
- New setting "Time and details": the time, the metric values, the icons and the divider in Gold, Rose gold, Silver or Champagne - clearly different, rich tones that stay easy to read.
- 1.1.03 Nov 2026
- New setting "Detail colour": the icons and the divider in Gold, Rose gold, Silver or Champagne.
- 1.0.01 Nov 2026
- First release: Silk Satin Digital Watch Face.
Why do I see "--" for body Battery, recovery time and weekly running distance?

On solar/MIP watches (64 colours) the silk is shown as a flat dial in the nearest palette colour?
On solar/MIP watches (64 colours) the silk is shown as a flat dial in the nearest palette colour.
How do I change a field or a colour?
On the watch: hold the middle-left (UP/MENU) button on the watch face, choose Watch face, then Customize. In the phone: open the Connect IQ app, go to My Device, Watch Faces, Silk, then Settings. Every change shows at once.
Is it a subscription?
No. You buy it once in the Connect IQ store and keep every future update.
Does it drain the battery?
The face is built to be as frugal as a Garmin face: it redraws once a minute and the always-on screen is dimmed and minimal on AMOLED watches.
