Simply said, I've never been interested in spending a lot of money on my gadget obsession.



I have purchased about 7 smartwatches since my very first piece (a $20 clone from overseas that only ever just turned on and lit up - that's it), but when I was handed the Pebble classic, I quickly became an avid fan.



I can walk with this, and count my steps. Swim with this and time my laps, and even play timer based games with friends and family at the pool. When I have my ipod/iphone plugged into my HiFi at home, dinner guests remain amazed when I skip songs and adjust the volume from the dinner table. Instead of charging my watch every night with my cell phone, I only have to at most - twice a week! Since I got the Pebble classic, I had to find the perfect pebble, and to this end I got the Pebble Steel, the Time Round, the Time Steel and finally, this wonderful little item. I absolutely loved the Time Steel as I enjoy the stainless steel look and feel for my own personal tastes, and have always avoided plastic watches since childhood. I need to feel the metal on my wrist to be comfortable, but I gotta admit that I do enjoy the Pebbles.



The only plastic watch I could ever wear, the most robust and frankly the only thing that really topped the Classic in all aspects is this the Pebble 2 se. Thinner, slicker, nicer with even more apps to choose from and a light feel that makes me touch it to make sure its still on. My jewelry box still holds it's Movado, Invicta, Michael Kors, Police, Cartier, (etc) as the staples but they are collecting dust since I can't really go without a pebble on my wrist. Such a shame this great company is gone...another victim of Big Business! SO - at this price I had to be sure to have this last piece, not only for my own collection, but as a backup to provide me with a few more years of amazing performance (with the expected performance of these items, I'm good for the next 50 years at least - sorry everyone else!).



There is of course so MUCH to gush about when it comes to Pebble pieces, but I think that my point is made here. I'm a fan, and this is their last hurrah, and happily placed upon my wrist, in principle and pleasure.
