BWF - Binary Watch Face for Android
• fully customizable
• with Ambient Mode
• for round and square Watches
• smaller view when Notifications are visible
• Background Images
How to get to the Configuration?
At your wear Companion App, when the Watch Face is selected, click the little Gear Icon Overlay to get to the Configuration Screen. This is the by Google Intended Way to implement Watch Face Configurations and prevents the App Drawer to get flooded with Configuration Apps.

Very customizable. Works well and looks good. One problem, when I disable show decimal time and date it still shows when the screen goes to low power mode. Can an option be added to turn them off there aswell please. All in all great.
*Update* So after using this watchface for a while I realized it is in 12 hour mode (probably just uses the mode from your phone), but it's kinda funky. The extra hour bit is always there even though it's never used. 12 hour mode only needs a single row of 4 bits for the hour, and it could have an extra bit to the side for AM/PM. Also 12 AM shows as 0 (no bits in hour rows are active). It would also be cool if we could move the date to the bottom, but that's not a big deal.
I'm really enjoying the BWF. It's a great app and the customization is awesome. I have two suggestions/wish list items though. First could you include a "night-mode" to automatically display the face in red at night as to not disrupt one's night-vision? And two, can you make a true binary, not binary-coded-decimal display? One column of 5 dots for hours and second and third columns of 6 dots for minutes and seconds?
1 star, Not showing up on Moto 360. After re-installing watch face works great. I hadn't connected my moto360 when app was first installed, May have caused the problem. Favorite watch face. Thanks!
It's awesome but I noticed something odd... Since it uses a 12 hour clock, why does the first hour digit need a 2 at all? It can only be 1 or 0, as the largest hour in a 12hour clock is 12.
If that is added I will definitely rate 5 stars
Way better than the other version of another android wear binary clock that doesn't even work and I paid good money for. This is free and awesome!
Omg man this is the best for me I love it you can change the size of the letters and the dots color I can customize it
Have no customizing options.
Fantastic looking binary watch face on my Moto 360 with loads of options and it comes for free. Can't ask for anything else. Thank you, keep up the great work.
Not really binary. Each digit is represented by a separate binary number. It makes much more sense to have 3 binary numbers for the hours minutes and seconds. There are much better faces for binary representation with more customisation such as "elegant binary watch face".
This is truly amazing good job :)
Didn't show on my gear fit
Displaying colored dots is easy. What this face does exceptionally is allow you to customize their color, spacing, background, and everything else you might want to adjust. This one face can be customized for any mood or occasion. My only suggestion: Allow settings profiles to be saved and easily loaded.
Works on Moto 360!
I love it! I was going to uninstall it if I could not customize it. Thanks for the great app! :)
Love it. Love the hex color selector.
The app depicts in the first image that it is 24hr but after download no such option exists
Love the design and customization. Crashes too often.
This is already great because I love binary watches, but it also has a ton of customization!
I would hope to see the option in the next version for a full color binary clock in standby mode instead of just having it white but otherwise this is the best binary face I've seen
I love the looks of this. Here's wha I wish it had: 1. Presets: Being able to set color/settings presets would be cool. Being able to make multiple color setups and change them on the watch would be great. 2. On watch customization: I wish I could change colors ON THE WATCH. I don't have my phone on all the time, so being able to change colors on the fly would be nice.
I currently have the "show decimal time" setting turned off, but when my watch is in ambient mode the decimal time still shows. I would appreciate it very much if this setting could also be applied to ambient mode.

Excellent design!
The gear icon in AW app takes to the settings screen, good idea. Why the app size is big as compare to other similar apps? And provide an option to change the default watch face timeout. Thanks.
Beautyfull
No customization option on phone like was displayed in pictures. Other than that its a good watch face
How to customize it? I am not getting the option to do it!!
by M####:
What you explained below doesn't work on my moto360. I don't see the gear icon neither in the watch while selecting this specific watch faces (I see for the native watch faces tho) nor on the "companion App", which I'm assuming it's the default android wear app on the Android. If you let me know how I can get to the customization screen I'll change the stars, cuz I'd love it if I was able to customize it. "Hi Abhishek, in the wear companion App, when the Watch Face is selected you should see a little Gear Icon overlaying the watch face Icon. Tap on that and you should see the Configuration Screen. That is the by Android intended way to implement Configuration Activities and most other Watch Faces do so. I will explain that in the App Info. Thanks."
