📋 About This Mod
A Simple watch & compass UI for immersive HUDless gameplay. Glance down and a digital watch appears, showing time and a compass direction.
Adds a diegetic wrist-watch HUD to Cyberpunk 2077, showing time, compass direction, and optional skip-time prompt when you look down. For players who want minimal UI without opening the map. Stands out with full color/saturation/opacity controls, cutscene hiding, and a subtle flicker effect.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Minimal, diegetic UI — glance down for time/heading without breaking immersion.
- Full CET customization: 7 color presets plus HSL sliders, opacity, and flicker strength.
- Updated August 2026 with a skip-time binding, so it's actively maintained.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Cyber Engine Tweaks, so if you don't already run CET for other mods, that's another overlay layer to manage.
- Removed the compass needle in v1.3 — you get a text direction readout only, no dial/arrow, which some players may miss.
- Only 1 endorsement across 117 downloads, so it hasn't been widely tested; expect possible rough edges.
For Cyberpunk 2077 players who hate minimaps and want an immersive way to check time/heading without pausing. For CET users who already tweak the game and want a stylish watch HUD with full color control. Skip if you want a full minimap or quest marker — this is strictly time and compass direction.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Bind the Skip Time key in CET → Bindings → WristHUD → Skip time; the suggested key is minus (-).
- Open the CET overlay (default hotkey is ~ or F12 depending on your config) to access the WristHUD menu for color and flicker settings.
- If the watch doesn't appear, look down toward your wrist more deliberately; the mod triggers on a significant downward look angle.
