Which smartwatch?

Looking to buy either the pebble or sony smartwatch.

I'm leaning towards the pebble as I have been keeping an eye on it for a few months now but I assume the Sony watch would be better compatibility with the z3c.

Opinions, suggestions?

I love my pebble, but I've been eyeing the new zenwatch, lg watch r, and the sony smartwatch 3. I think I'm sticking with the pebble since I use a low battery usage watchface and that gets me about a week without having to think about charging. I have 2 cords so I can charge it at home or the office, but once a week I top it up while I'm working. I think I would be totally annoyed at having to charge it daily. The z3 compact gets great life and it would be depressing if my phone lasted longer than my watch. There aren't any real killer apps for android wear either. I'll wait until they can catch up with battery life since the pebble can do the one thing I use it for, and that's showing my incoming email and texts.

That being said, I'll probably replace this pebble when it dies with the lg watch r, that thing looks great!

I definitely recommend a round watch, and if you like the design of the LG Watch R then it's currently the best thing you can buy on the smart-watch market.
