The sweep arm on this radar goes around once every sixty seconds, trailing a fading green wake, exactly as an old radar scope does. In clock mode two blips mark the hour and minute hands; each lights up as the beam passes and then slowly fades.
In stopwatch mode every lap you record leaves a blip at the point on the dial where that lap landed in its minute, so a run of laps paints a pattern on the screen. It is a distinctive face for timing intervals and a good-looking one for any sci-fi or tech page.
Where it's useful
- A dramatic stopwatch for a stream or a video
- A sci-fi-themed clock for a game or a page
- Seeing a series of laps as a pattern around the dial
- A green-screen countdown overlay
Three ways to use it
- Clock — the time of day in your time zone or any city, in 12- or 24-hour form.
- Stopwatch — counts up with laps; press Lap while it runs.
- Countdown — counts down from any time you set, sounds at zero, then counts overtime.
Every face runs entirely in your browser, remembers your settings on this device, and can be embedded on your own page.

Questions
What do the blips mean?
In stopwatch mode each blip is a lap, placed by where in the minute you recorded it. In clock mode they are the hour and minute hands.
How fast does the beam sweep?
Once a minute, so the beam is on the seconds at the edge of the dial.
Can I change the colour?
Yes. The accent colour recolours the whole screen from green to any hue.
