• Apple has filed a patent for watch faces that can be color-coordinated with clothing or watch straps.
• The patent filing notes that users would be able to scan objects with a watch to customize the watch face.
• This is just a patent filing, though, so don’t hold your breath for this tech to come to a future Apple Watch.

Apple Watches have long lacked third-party watch face support, but a new patent filing suggests Apple could open up watch face customization in a very different way.

AppleInsider spotted an Apple patent filing for a watch that can sample colors from clothing or a watch strap, then use this color data to customize the watch face itself. In other words, you could have watch faces that are color-coordinated with your watch band or T-shirt.
