​want him to deposit the money for it in your account too? It is a pebble steel smart watch, want more spend 5 seconds copying it into Google

​That was a bit harsh Botonphucket

Tempted but do I really need it

You might want to edit the title to make it more descriptive.

​to be fair, I did miss off "@ Curry's" in original post

Great looking watch, if I didn't already have a Motorola 360 2nd gen, I'd be buying one.

Damn it, I just got one of those Microsoft Band's a couple of weeks ago..

Some people paid a lot of money for the 1st Gen Pebble steel when it was new. This is a great deal for the Pebble, which in my opinion is focussed on important genuinely useful stuff.

It is good value. I recently bought the original Pebble when it was being sold for £49.99 and, despite having a few teething problems getting my Xiaomi phone to play nicely with it, it's great, does all that I want it to do.

Any good with an iPhone 6s Plus? Or are functions fairly limited? .......

this or the Sony sw50....

I've had the Pebble Steel for nearly a year now and it is excellent. Does the simple stuff very well.

Just got a Asus Zenwatch 2 but still keep putting the Pebble on instead. It just works!

Arrrgh so tempted...does the black version "keep" the black paint or it comes off after a while?

Lovely. Now I'm wondering if I should return the Pebble original that I got a month ago and get this.

As if I wasn't already bankrupt because of Christmas shopping...

Does Amazon usually price-match on Pebbles ?

Thanks OP - ordered one. I'm sick of picking my phone up every time I hear a bleep only to discover it's someone else's phone.... Problem now solved :stuck_out_tongue:

There is one on Amazon at £66.50 but not sure if it's the same one. Previous model?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pebble-301BL-Smartwatch-Black/dp/B00BKEQBI0/ref=sr_1_1?s=telephone&ie=UTF8&qid=1450977470&sr=1-1&keywords=pebble+watch

That's the original non steel

Seems a good deal.

I however, am not ready to jump on this bandwagon just yet. The smartwatch malarkey isn't interesting enough for me yet

not great these tbh. better off waiting for Zen watch 2.

Got it price matched by Amazon on live chat :smile:

I actually like the look of it but the lack of touch screen and when you view a notification on your phone it doesn't remove it from your watch like Android Wear both put me off.

At £40 I would have took a punt but at £80 i'm going to wait and see if next years brings better Android Wear devices.

Bought it while on live chat and they said they will price match it just this time as it's close to Christmas. They will refund 40 after despatch . had to give order nr :smiley:

You must have been lucky, I tried to get amazon to price match but they said it wasn't possible

For anyone sitting on the fence, I have to give kudos to Pebble as they've just updated their software to version 3 for the Pebble classic and steel a few days ago. This brings the newer Timeline interface, which is a main selling point on the newer Pebble Time, to the older monochrome watches. The UI is much better too.

I bought my classic in the Black Friday sales. I was a bit meh about the version 2 software as it felt a bit dated, though it did notifications really well along with 7 days battery life. However the new software has really made it into better bargain than I hoped for as it now interfaces with more apps to give notifications, and generally the Pebble Time app store is better than the normal Pebble one.

anyone please this or sony watch 3 (£90 from very)?

Pebble steel was great for me but much prefer my Zenwatch 2 (Currys, £150).

nice find OP

I sold mine as I wanted to use it to change music tracks when streaming music via Bluetooth.. But when having both watch and Bluetooth audio connected there is an error that makes it keep cutting out. Was unusable for my needs

Tempted but do I really need it

To be fair though, smart watch sounds good but exactly, is it worth handing over cash.

​thanks for that. very helpful

I agree. Too many people on here quick to put people down for very little reason. This guy states it's his first post and comments like this and others discourage them from posting on here again.

Well done to the bell ends with snide comments. Next time offers some support and do everyone a favour!

I love my Pebble Steel. Looks great, particularly with the metal strap, battery lasts for days, and the button rather than touch screen interface lets you do stuff like control music in the car without needing to look at the screen

cold black and white screen

A watch with a battery life of 7 days... are we sure tech is moving forwards??

​Maybe ill just give the smart watch fad a miss, i just dont get it. The 'old' tells the time very efficiently as it is, i dont have to worry abouy it maybe not being alive next morning to wake me. if i want to send a text or get a reminder i pull out the smart phone which does its job.

Or just change your notification tone?

​Some people wear jeans so tight, it's a battle to get their phone out of their pocket easily. This watch is for these people.

If you're not into wearing skinny jeans, the watch won't be for you.

Got Pebble Smartwatch - Black for 49.99 but this one looks much more nicer. As a proper watch I would say:)

Nice watch for a good price. Pebble went backwards with the new 'colour' variant in my opinion - it looks like a child's watch made by VTec or LeapPad.

Just ordered one, seems a decent price, and a nice looking watch as well.
Good to see it has also had the latest software update as well.

Doesn't have touchscreen

Revolutionary battery tech is on its way :man:

Sooner the better

Is the 20% off currys gift vouchers offer still available ?
*No :disappointed:http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/save-20-currys-pc-world-egift-cards-when-spend-between-20-100-starts-21st-dec-giftcloud-2353765

This watch is the work of the devil...:sunglasses:

I bought the pebble classic. the battery last me 2 weeks! I switch off the watch when I am home and I only turn on notification for text and calls. it has served me very very well.
the UI gets even better after upgrading to Pebble time.
love it

It should be pointed out that this is the b/w version and not the coloured screen, which is called Pebble time. The price for this model is good however, but it is an older model.

I like the looks so smart watches & the features they offer but charging the battery every seven days is a big turn off for me!! If they made the battery life last longer, say 3 months or more then maybe tempting.

Super deal, Have some heat.

any straps suitable to use for this item when working out at gym? imagine leather strap not appropriate if your arms are dripping wet!

I will google it. Thanks!!

cold for black and white screen, we havnt had black and white tv's for 50 years, why is it acceptable for a watch to have one?

Some people live in a parallel universe.

Looks good but very expensive

thanks ordered

I have thin wrists, is this quite bulky? just wondering if it`ll look like a brick strapped to my arm?!

He probably has an iPhone with his limited tone choices! :smiley:

Great price. I got one of these around a year ago from Pebble direct for £107.

Wear mine daily - great watch, apart from the issue where it sometimes remains on "connecting" forever when trying to sync to my mobile (caused by a Pebble firmware update in Dec 2013 that broke this and they've yet to fix it)

Now also at Amazon .....

Cos it gives it its 7 day battery life! Beautifully readable in all lighting conditions too. Of course if you WANT colour, then choose something else but that this is B&W doesn't otherwise hamper how great it is.

Hmm, Do I really need this? I hardly wear a watch at work as It would get damaged however I do like the thought of reading texts, I'm holding back I think as it would cost me another 20 odd quid for a metal strap and then a screen face protector.

I personally like the idea of the ipod nano watch that apple brought out years ago, getting a new one of them would be hard now though

Now also available at £79.99 @ Amazon

I've had mine for over a year now, great watch, looks much better than their new watches as well.

currently on amazon for same price http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00KVHEL8E/ref=s9_simh_gw_p23_d0_i4?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=desktop-1&pf_rd_r=1GK6P71KA6HKZ6APDVHH&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=577049067&pf_rd_i=desktop

Had my Pebble Classic since Black Friday. Find it handy to glance at screen to read a text or other message, get calendar notifications on my wrist and see and control what I'm listening to on my phone. Notifications are doubly handy if my phone is elsewhere in the house charging. Someone even commented to me recently that the watch looked nice so not everyone thinks it's ugly.

You really are damn stupid for voting cold because of the b/w screen. Narrow minded grinch!

I bought the steel recently for £105 (M&S £149.99 with £45 discount). Started wearing it Christmas today yesterday and I am so in love with it. You now use the Pebble Time app to manage it instead of the older pebble app. It's rock solid and works flawlessly! I've spent the whole day downloading apps and watch faces and messing around with it. Absolutely fantastic! The battery life is also brilliant which is a huge plus for me! I also think a touch screen on the wrist is stupid so the buttons are again a huge plus! Overall I can't recommend it enough! It's a joy to use and I love it!!

I bought one last night from Amazon , delivery between 29, 31 ....... Only comes with black leather strap . Are there other choices freely available or do you need to buy the official stainless steel one if you want a change ?....

if you genuinely "need" a smartwatch, then you need this one. loved mine, only stopped using it because I bought the Pebble Time Steel.

Ordered mine for delivery to store Tuesday, can someone tell me what the official app is called? I've looked but all I can find is apps you pay for?

can't decide between the pebble steel or the original pebble smartwatch...from my understanding the only difference is in the design, functionality and specs are the same

What I found when I owned the original from the day of release is that because it has a plastic screen that this got scratched very easily. Also, the size could be a consideration. The Steel is 34x46mm whereas the Original is 36x52mm. Personally I found the original Pebble to be too tall and looked odd on the wrist.

Just ordered mine, except got it from Amazon. Currys aftersales customer service is terrible.

ordered from amazon, they also allow no hassle returns if u use it and not happy with it, doubt currys pc world would let u return it for a full refund if u clearly have used it.

Has anyone managed to link this to their Vitality account to track activity? I believe Misfit has a Pebble tie in that may work.
Currently I have a Garmin Vivosmart and the touch screen so annoying me.

So I had bought one from here. Now I'm gonna return it and get one from Amazon. Why? Because it's Amazon that's why. Their customer service is second to none

Returned my pebble original to Currys today without hassle (apart from the queue!) so I can get this one via Amazon-thanks OP

bit weird that they made a proprietary strap for no reason, the fitting I mean

Yeah the proprietary strap is an odd choice. I got the steel one as an optional extra when I bought mine and it makes the whole thing look the business.

I never bothered with a screen protector as it's gorilla glass and there's not a single blemish on mine despite being worn daily for a year.

As I've had a Pebble since the original Kickstarter campaign I think they're great. If only for the vibrating alerts for texts, calls etc.

Could never go back to a normal watch.

The 10-12 day battery life is nice too, and plenty of warning when it's low and needs recharging (couple of days).

Oh, and it's fun to write a watchface. I did one when I first got my original Pebble - it displayed the time in words as I say the time, eg "nearly quarter to ten", " half past six " etc ;-)

10-12 day battery life? The company quotes 5-7?!

Is this any good as a pedometer? Would it be as accurate as the FitBit I currently own?

Real world for me it's always been around 12. It's gone down to 10 as I run Misfit in the background (fitness step/sleep tracker).

Though if I have a mad day with loads of texts etc (so its vibrating and updating the display more often) then I might have to charge it sooner.

Worst I've seen is around 5 days, a one off when I set an alarm (which vibrates) and forgot to cancel it so it repeated the next day etc at that time.

Best screen protector for these? Have read that some of them can take off the gloss of the screen...

How good is it at step-counting?

Step counting on Misfit seems to be close to actual as far as I can tell. I don't own a dedicated 'band' to compare it with, but I once did the walk to work counting steps in my head and Misfit was close to my total, maybe 5% out.

Misfit on Pebble is great as it's self-contained so doesn't need a phone. It gives a graph of the last week's steps etc and daily stats on demand.

You don't need a screen protector! See my previous comment about gorilla glass and no blemishes after a year of daily wearing.

That's good advice from someone that's only posted one deal

How to you reply to text if you gave no touch screen? I genuinely wanted to buy this, but no touch screen has put me off.

Does anyone know where you can buy Genuine Pebble leather straps from? (exactly the same as what comes with the steel)

Thanks

blackster, you may be interested in this article regarding straps for the Steel.

Has anyone received theirs from Currys yet? My order tracking hasn't changed since the 26th.

Mine is supposed to land today

Mine arrived instore at 11.45am today!

I've had my email, going to collect shortly

picked it up today. been using moto 360 up until now. glad I tried it out. love it and astonished with the battery life! sick of moto dying at 10 hrs. also like the misfit app.

Mine was delivered today, seems alright so far, will compare it to my smart watch 3 over the next week!

Setup my watch yesterday, been pretty impressed so far but it's is killing my battery!! Down 9% in the last half an hour! Anyone else having this problem on an iPhone?

You didn't see the title before he edited it. Chill out!

As I said before, the title didn't even include the merchant. Regardless of how many deals I have posted, I can still make a point.

I really like this but don't like how you can't change straps as I'd much prefer a more waterproof/rugged silicone one. looked online but can't seem to find any to fit that aren't posted from the usa at huge cost. Anyone know here to get one?

the pebble is a good and versatile watch but the downside i found with it was after wearing it for a while it felt very uncomfortable on my wrist and the large size of the bezel hitches on my jacket sleeve.

Returning mine, was an upgrade from the original pebble but the vibration is so weak I'm missing notifications, shame because it looks the business

Look into these before buying, the features are terrible, it's cheap for a reason.....

​What a load of steaming, stinking BS!

Ordered thanks OP!

Want a SS strap now, anyone point me in the direction of a good deal?

So mine has a weird issue, reports 100% battery for 3 days then in the space of a few hours goes from 100% to flat. Have contacted Pebble support but haven't had any response yet.

Mine came yesterday and is great, apart from the battery life which is absolutely awful. Went from a full charge at 6am when I took it from the charger, to 90% at 6:15am, 80% at 7:30 and was completely dead by 1pm, in spite of turning off vibration, backlight etc.

Opened a ticket with pebble support, not heard back yet.

The battery on mine looks like it's starting to stabilise now, will keep an eye on things.

What apps did you guys installed on yours? So many of them, some irrelevant like live timetable for buses in Korea...apps for the UK..is there a limit on how many apps we can install?
Loving mine so far...

I don't have any apps on mine, just the Time firmware and I'm using the Timestyle watch face. Starting to get decent battery life now :-)

I've installed MIsfit, Pebtris,Tiny Birds, Football Pal, Pixel miner, Uk Transport, Haatchi, Uk Loca INFO, Gentle Wake and several watchfaces

any silicone straps for our pebble steel, very confusing where and which to buy..I've only found some silicone straps from Synergy from US but the postage charges are so high(almost as the price of the strap), looked at some on ebay but not sure if it will fit the pebble steel

Here's one for 9 dollars with free shipping which says it's compatible with the Steel. Alibaba, so usual provisos about long delivery, unknown levels of customer support etc. But for a fiver worth a punt. http://m.aliexpress.com/item/32409751296.html

With the Pebble Time Steel, which uses standard watch bands, that won't fit the OG Pebble Steel, it uses a custom strap.

Can anyone help

I'm having trouble setting my Pebble steel up

I have it connected to my Galaxy Note 4, all the software on the Note and Pebble are updated and current.

However I can receive text messages to my pebble and upload watch faces, but I cannot get Gmail nor whatsapp messages to show on my pebble.

I've been in all the settings and "enabled" Gmail and Whatsapp for notifications but nothing seems to be coming through.
Also read numerous guides but still no luck.

Anyone any ideas?

I think on Android there are some settings which enable you to select which notifications you'll receive on your pebble, maybe the whatsapp msgs and normal txts aren't selected
On my iPhone all notifications are shown( a bit of a pain as I don't want to know that this app has been updated, or latest news from BBC News..)
have a look in settings on your android phone

​Hi ionuttd, I ordered this one from eBay 171848894803. Ordered on 6th January and arrived yesterday, cost £19 inc delivery. Just fitted it today and fits perfectly. Now have a fully waterproof watch and strap. Choice of colours.

You can get white only from richardtracybrand.com for $18 including delivery. They do the shank strap which was previously also available in black as well but they've sold out and won't be restocking (I emailed to check). HTH

Offer finished. Back to £119.99

Keep in mind it's a bit of gamble for now. Pebble company has been partially sold to Fitbit, partially dissolved. Orders for Pebble Time 2 on Kickstarter cancelled, warranties void. Main question is how long their app store and servers will keep working.
This one is bit safer choice as you can rely on warranty from Currys. Expect more fantastic price drops soon thought

Still angry that after taking all that kickstarter money they've now sold out and now won't be offering cloud services for it after next year. What a way to treat the people who made you a success.
