Request to make official Google pixel watch faces for GTR 3

I am a big fan of the official Google pixel watch and I was wondering if it is possible to convert all official watch faces from the pixel watch to the GTR 3. If possible, please use the English language.
Thanks for the effort!

Not sure, but i think WearOS watchfaces have quite a bit of code that is not compatible with ZeppOS. Surely some if not all of the functionality could be mimicked, but then the question is can the watch run it smoothly.
Also if anyone knows if those Pixel watch faces can be downloaded and the graphical assets extracted. That would at least help in creating similar style of watchfaces.

I have heard from a watch face maker on this forum that it is not difficult to make, but that most people prefer classic watch faces. Anyway, I hope someone will grant this request!

I would imagine it is also a question of how accurate replica you want. For example the concentric watchface has pretty 'sophisticated' rotation happening on the numbers. That functionality can't be done via the editors we have. But someone might be able to manually code that logic.

As accurate as possible, if you look at the Concentric dial from watch face maker HORN, for example, I personally think it is 95% accurate and I am personally very satisfied with that. And that one also seems to be the most difficult to make. Those others should actually be a piece of cake. But maybe I'm wrong...

Oh yeah. That watchface seems to be surprisingly accurate. Nice mention.
