About On This Day
On This Day puts a real moment from history on your wrist every single day. Each morning your watch face shows what happened on today's date: the year in big amber numbers and a short, easy-to-read fact, such as the first Moon landing, the birth of Mozart or the day the Eiffel Tower opened.
366 facts, one for every date of the year (29 February included): space, inventions, science, art, music, books, films and sport. Only positive, curious moments: no wars, no disasters, no politics.
Every day comes with its own color, chosen from 16 color families, so your watch face looks new each morning.
Available in 11 languages: English, Magyar, Deutsch, Français, Español, Italiano, Nederlands, Polski, Português, Norsk and Svenska. Pick your language in Garmin Connect or right on the watch and the fact updates automatically.
Beyond the daily fact, this watch face also gives you a data-rich display for health monitoring and fitness tracking.
