Best Watch Faces for Pixel Watch 2

The Pixel Watch 2 is a good watch that deserves better than the stock faces, and two of these four picks currently cost nothing.

Retro Watch Face 2 and Minimal Watch Face are both free right now — Retro 2 on a 100%-off sale (normally $1.99), Minimal as the studio's permanently free face. Retro 2 is vintage digital styling; Minimal is exactly what the name says, a clean face that gets out of the way. Install both while they are free.

The paid picks are fitness-leaning: Fit Watch Face ($1.99) keeps activity metrics front and center, and Pace Watch Face ($1.99) is a runner-oriented digital design. Both pair naturally with the Pixel Watch 2's Fitbit integration — the watch's health sensors feed the standard complications these faces expose.

Install from the Play Store on your phone or directly on the watch, then long-press the watch face to switch. All four support always-on display and standard Wear OS complications.

If Retro 2's sale has ended by the time you read this, check the Friday coupon drop on this site — free codes for $1.99 faces go out every week, and Retro-style faces appear in the rotation.
