Pixel Watch 3 design video reveals unreleased update to Concentric face

Made by Google always releases stylized “design of” videos for its Pixel and Nest products. The latest shows off an unreleased Concentric face for the Pixel Watch 3.

As spotted today in “The Design of Pixel Watch 3” video, including in the thumbnail, this Concentric layout does not exist. It’s most like Dial I, but with a ring of four complications in between the minutes and seconds.

Battery percentage and heart rate occupy the bottom two slots. However, VO2 Max (or cardio fitness score under Heart) is not available as a complication today, while the fourth shows two waves with a numerical value. That could possibly represent breathing rate, which today is only measured overnight as part of Health Metrics.

Everything else in the video is a watch face already available with this year’s wearable, including Active, Field, and Track. Hopefully, this update to Concentric is not just a mockup.

To date, Google has not released new Pixel Watch faces outside of annual device launches. However, this would count as an update to a popular existing face. Meanwhile, the Pixel Watch and Pixel Watch 2 have yet to be updated with the 2024 faces. 

Here are the other “design of” videos:
