If you ever write an autobiography it should be called "Finally Personally"

I ordered on the original deal from Currys this morning. Had one of them Chinese cheap ones before. Works great but lack of apps was it's downfall.

I am pretty sure that is the goal of Prime :smile:

i still easily get a week's life out of my time without turning it off each night - standby mode takes care of that.

You can't... I've been on eBay looking at these for a few months since a disappointing cheap one on Amazon.

Plus you get warranty here too and its new

Delivery is free for orders over £20. You have to select free delivey at checkout. Understand?

i'd bite their hands off :smiley:

you can install the super handy "is deadpool out yet?" app which, with a flick of your wrist, gives you the number of days left until Deadpool hits the cinema. and who wouldn't want to know that ? :smile:

​thanks on your advice I will

bluetooth range

It's quite a long way. I leave my phone on my desk and sit in a meeting room down the corridor, and the alerts come through. That's through a few walls on the way.
I have a friend who swims and leaves the phone in a bag at one end of the pool and he gets the alerts at the other end of the pool (gym pool, about 25 metres).

Unless you're Mr Tickle you'll be fine...

There's an unofficial paid app on the windows phone app store that claims to work with it, although some of the reviews look a bit iffy. It appears to only work while running on your phone, so kill the app and seemingly lose the connectivity.

I'm hoping to do exactly this, Nightscout and an xDrip for Diabetes CGM :smiley:

i don't personally, but i do know it has an official app that pairs with the runtastic pro app on your phone.

Pebble doesn't have GPS, whereas the Tomtom I'm assuming you're thinking of getting does

I use it for running in conjunction with the strava app on my phone as an easily viewable display/pace setter.
the watch itself DOES NOT have GPS so to use if for running you have to carry the phone with you.

TOMTOM Sport im assuming has built in GPS that you download the data from.

i've got an iPhone 6s and the app store works just fine on mine - worked fine on my old 5s as well.


Yeah, that's part of the reason I wanted to try one like that, just for the added protection

This original version of the Pebble watch works really very well with an iPhone, the iPhone support steadily improved over a couple of years and is very good.
However, the newer Pebble Time has a few features (such as text reply from watch) that will only work on Android or on iPhones on AT&T contracts in the USA. No big deal, the core functionality is solid I can vouch.
The Pebble App store is just fine, never encountered or heard of any problem with that on iPhone.

It was first released and developed by a Kickstarter campaign and they sold out very quickly and broke the Kickstarter records, so pretty successful.

Pebble watches are not all bells and whistles, but they do the important things well.
If you get a watch with all bells and whistles, then you will probably only get a 1 day battery life.
Pebble will give you 5-7 days between charges. The Pebble also has excellent sunlight readability.

Having said that, this original Pebble is from 2013 and is a bit dated, although it is still getting software updates.
My personal choice would be, the one that I already have - the newer Pebble Time.
