It's to Google's advantage to keep Smartwatches stylish now that companies like Tag and Fossil have entered the Smartwatch business.
Google has partnered with 9 different brands.
  • Ted Baker: Reveal your sophisticated side with ten gorgeous designs.
  • Melissa Joy Manning: Rock a different birthstone for every month of the year.
  • Vivienne Tam: Watch Opera Girl twirl, take a selfie, and more.
  • Nicole Miller: Stay on track and in style with Nicole Miller’s pop art.
  • Y-3: Sport the styles of Yohji Yamamoto, inspired by the beauty of human movement.
  • Mango: Add instant chic to any outfit with this ready-to-wear watch face.
  • Zoe Jordan: Free your time of clutter with the clean lines of modern design.
  • Harajuku Kawaii!: Express your playful side with this adorable and vibrant watch face.
  • ASICS: Motivate yourself to stay active with the help of your fitness buddy.
These awesome face designs are free for download at the Play Store.
 
Interesting. None of these are really my style, but its good to see Google trying to keep Android Wear relevant and refreshing.
 
I snagged a couple I'd never seen before & the Kevin Tong robot face I had used for quite a while, but somehow didn't download to my 6P.

Also, one of those faces is 99 cents. The rest are free.

Have you checked the PS. There are 15 available for download.
I did. I'm not saying they aren't nice.....just not my style watch faces. Some are very cool and I'm sure a lot of people will like them. It's still a great idea by Google, in my opinion.

Are you rocking the Mango face...."add instant chic to any outfit"? [emoji3] JK...of course.
Edit: Upon second look that one is kind of nice, not at all like the description sounded. I may actually try it. Disregard my poking fun attempt. [emoji41]
 
Show's the difference in taste for sure. I didn't care for Mango. I got Ted Baker, which seems kinda cool, and Zoe Jordan, which are kinda sleek to me. And, of course, my robots face.

I'm still rocking my Christmas Countdown face right now though, so I won't even be trying these out until after next week.
 
My face collection has gotten pretty stale over the past several months. I found one I really like (thanks to @sajokaz) and have had a hard time replacing it. I figure the Christmas one will reset my idea of a good face and I can try these after, but I really do like the look of the ones I snagged, so far. We'll see how they translate to my Urbane.
 
As an update I tried Zoe Jordan, based on Jonny's post, that one does look like something I would like. Unfortunately it looks like it does not work on a G Watch. [emoji20]. It just looks like a piece of broken glass on my watch, no time indication at all. I will try an Uninstall and install again...are what happens.
 
I don't remember which one I recommended that he liked. Could have been Minimal & Elegant (my personal favorite) or Retro Flip Clock.
 
I've actually kept the look of mine fairly well the same for quite a while now, but I alway find myself gravitating back to M&E after trying other faces for a little while.

Like I said before, I'm hoping making myself get used to this Christmas face will reset that line of thinking and I can give some other faces a real chance at sticking around longer.
