One main advantage a smartwatch has over the traditional Watch is that you can change the watch face as many times as you like. Watch face is a significant part of a smartwatch, it shows just about the right amount of information that matters most to you at once on the screen. Whether you’re using an Apple Watch, Wear OS, Fitbit, Samsung, or any other smartwatch, you’ll get tons of options in the respective stores as there are lots of 3rd-party designers. So today, I’ll be sharing with you my top 10 best free watch faces for Galaxy Watch 3.

StarBack is another fine hybrid watch face I really like because of its detailed, yet no so cloggy design. It shows the time in a fashionable way with the three clock hands well designed, and as well an analog time. It also shows Samsung health and weather apps with two customizable widgets. Tapping on the down part changes the background while the colors of the two smaller ones can be customized separately.
