Absolute bargain I just got through on email from 'I Want One Of Those', thought it worth sharing. Links into and notifies me on everything I need from my phone while on the go without having to touch my phone. Email, calendar, Facebook, weather, the lot. This is considerably cheaper than what they are normally priced at and comes with free delivery, so I would recommend it wholeheartedly, especially at that price! Happy shopping.

one look at the screen resolution and you'll be left scratching your head

moot point, you don't need a stupidly high dpi to read a single line of text...

Analog face powered by separate battery that lasts for two years.

screen resolution is correct. look at the text display size, it's not the whole screen just that little display.

Was going to post this a few days ago but then realised it's similar price everywhere else so nothing special. Looks decent but you get what you pay for. :neutral_face:

it needs to be at least 521PPI for me to consider it. Otherwise the content of the text won't seem as good

Any idea if this works with Google maps or CityMapper to give directions? Would be nice to just be able to plot in a route on my phone and then just look at the watch when I need to make a turn.

I've two Pebble watches and had to send both of them back! I then bought the Martian Notifier from the USA for a similar price. Brilliant watch. Have some heat.

Great deal for a basic notifier - Heat added

Good price I got mine for the same. I think it's quite handy, but I stopped using it. don't like the rubber strap and finding a metal one to replace it that fits well is impossible. I'd say save your money and get the Moto 360 that's on offer. but this is a good half way mark for people interested in whether they'd use a smart watch.

The first one was a Pebble Smartwatch, it failed after two days. It did an automatic update then froze. The second was a Pebble Steel, it failed after three days. The screen on it showed horizontal white lines (on a black face) which distorted the watch face to a point were it was sometimes unreadable. According to the Pebble Steel forum it is a known hardware fault. With both watches I got full refunds.

Good price. The message display is handier than some full screen smartwatches as it'll show the message without having to press any buttons.
Having an independent analogue face is good as you can see the time without pressing any buttons first too. And when the battery powering the smart functionality runs out, you can *still* tell the time.
It's limited beyond time and messages, but I wasn't left wanting for much more.

I've not been able to find this watch on Zavvi or IWOOT, so I guess I'm dumber than the watch.

Was going to get this but then went with the pebble classic, stuck a stainless steel black strap on it and it looks nice. I don't like the small notification screen on the martian. That was the let down for me!
