The Pixel Watch 3 “Design of” video shows the unreleased update to the Concentric watch face

Made by Google has now released a stylized “Design of” video for its Pixel Watch 3, and the latest such video shows an unreleased tweak to the watch’s Concentric watch face. The company always releases such videos for its Pixel and Nest products.

In the video titled “The Design of Pixel Watch 3“, and in the thumbnail we see a concentric layout that doesn’t exist Pixel Watch 3. It’s probably the Dial I, but with a ring of four complications between the minutes and seconds.

The battery percentage and heart rate complications occupy the bottom two spots. However, VO2 Max (or cardio fitness score) is not yet available as a watch face complication and it is the third one shown in the video. The fourth complication shows two waves with a numerical value that could presumably be the respiratory rate.

Currently, respiratory rate is only measured at night as part of the health metrics on the smartwatch.

The other watch faces shown in the video are already available for this year’s watch, including Active, Field and Track. Hopefully this new Concentric update is actually coming and it’s not just a model that’s supposed to look fancy.

To date, Google has never released new Pixel Watch watch faces outside of annual device launches. However, this could be an update to a popular existing face. So we’re not sure how (and if) Google could accomplish this. Additionally, tech giant Mountain View has yet to update the Pixel Watch and Pixel Watch 2 with the new 2024 watch faces.

The Pixel Watch 3 was announced alongside the Pixel 9 during a Made by Google event in early September. It has a larger and brighter display, expanded fitness features from Fitbit, and deep integration with Google apps and services.

In my opinion, the watch face seen in the “Design of” video looks pretty cool and I hope Google releases it as an update to the Concentric watch face of the Pixel Watch 3.
