I know its a BIG ask to be certain, but I'd really love to see the Jacob&Co astronomia recreated on active 2, if anyone feels like they could do this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thank you in advance to anyone who even attempts to tackle this, I took a shot at it in the watchface creator but I had trouble even finding assets.

This watch face looks interesting, but I think it might not be suitable for a health-focused smartwatch because its core focus is more on fashion.
Another reason is that creating a watch face that closely resembles the original.
The watchface might be energy-intensive. It seems to require at least 2-3 animation components, some of which need to integrate with real-time calculations of the seconds and movement of the minute and hour hands to synchronize with the watch face visuals displayed at the seconds position. Therefore, it would consume more power than a standard watch face and might not be suitable for a health-focused watch that requires several days of battery life.
However, these are just my personal opinions.

I tried writing a rough script to mimic the watch's functionality mentioned in this thread. It may need further modifications, and anyone interested in further development can use it.

I will not be proceeding with this project because I believe it may not be worth the time, and I couldn't find suitable images to create the animations.

I will not answer any further questions. The script already provides sufficient explanation. If you intend to make any modifications, please study the script further on your own.

This is not a complete watchface; it is just a sample page to showcase a script that could be used to create a similar watchface as described the watch in this post.
