Description
Cadence Steel brings a bold cycling illustration, oversized digital time and eight configurable data fields to compatible Garmin MIP watches. Choose from 20 coordinated color themes.
This watch face costs US$4, a one-time external license purchase.
How to purchase and activate:
1. Buy Cadence Steel at https://athleteworld.store/en/themes/cadence-steel.
2. Complete checkout and copy the activation code from your Athlete World confirmation email.
3. Install Cadence Steel from Connect IQ and open its Settings.
4. Paste the code into Activation Code, tap Save, and keep your watch connected to your phone with internet access. The first attempt may wait for Garmin's permitted background interval; temporary connection failures are retried automatically.
One license supports up to three compatible watches. Activation status is shown in Settings. A previously activated watch stays licensed after restarting.
Features:
- MIP displays only, with the complete design retained during native sleep and seconds hidden.
- 20 color themes and eight independently configurable data fields.
- Notification hub with the watch's current notification count, phone connection and alarm/Do Not Disturb indicators.
- Current heart rate, altitude, battery, steps, weather and other supported metrics.
- English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Polish date, field and activation text.
- System, 12-hour or 24-hour time; selectable date formats; optional seconds.
- Optional weekly calendar replacing the four central fields.
- Optional long-press shortcuts to corresponding native complications on supported watches.
Data availability and refresh rates depend on the watch, firmware, permissions and paired phone. Notifications use Garmin's active notification count, not unread SMS or email totals. Current altitude follows the watch's native source; calibration is managed on the watch. Speed, activity distance, cadence and elevation gain are available only when Garmin supplies suitable activity data. Missing data is shown as --. This watch face does not record cycling activities.
Images include simulator screenshots of this version with illustrative test values. Colors and appearance may vary by device.
