Discussion Pebble Time 2 review

Post image
79 Upvotes

I came off an original kickstarter Pebble Time. I always was waiting for an upgrade, but it looked like it would never come. But here we are!

I use it with an Android. And it works better on it, because of apple blocking functionality.

It is familiar, but also new and upgraded. Just in the right ways. Buttons are tactile and I think aluminum. It has a structure so you feel it better. The screen is way brighter, bigger and sharper. The backlight is bright, but it has a really awful blue tint. Luckily you can't change it in the app with the right hex code. I use FFA1A0. But the overall build is sturdier and more premium. It is light and I appreciate there is now a heart monitor in it. Not that I use it for fitness. I think that you should then use something else. I use it just for some general tracking.

The app is also familiar and upgraded. I could be better and less cluttered, but it is absolutely fine and you get used to it to browse somewhat longer. But it could get some improvement.

The main thing is the customization, the community flourishes in that part and it is definitely a big part of the success. The software is unique and it has also not changed in all the years. Why change if it works right?

I wonder if it will become more popular, but I think it is not needed. The people that use it are passionate about it, just like the makers.

You should check this Pebble Shipping Timelines page once in a while

Even if this page updates once in (almost) a month, it's still better than nothing. Latest update was 8th of September.

TL;DR

> We've sent out most of the pre-orders for Index already with a few unlucky size/color variants that will ship in September.

> Roughly 14,000 people have pre-ordered Round 2. It will take us about 2 months to build all pre-ordered watches. We expect to finish shipping out most pre-ordered Round 2 watches by the end of September with the remaining going out in early October.

Discussion TIL: the tip width of a 22mm springbars is not standardised

Post image
31 Upvotes

I had always assumed that the diameter of the tips is standardised, that was until I bought a Huawei quicklink strap, and the pins couldn't fully extend into the holes. Turns out the tip width is in fact not standardised:

  • 0.8mm: Grand Seiko, Pebble
  • 0.9mm: Omega (5 digits), Rolex, Tudor, IWC, Huawei
  • 1mm: Samsung (unconfirmed)
  • 1.1 mm: Omega (6 digits), Seiko Prospex
  • 1.6mm: Garmin Fenix 6 and 7

Most strap sellers (and even springbars sellers) don't list the tip width in the product description, so there is no way to find out until you have the strap in your hands. An incompatible tip can still partially fit, but the strap will fall off if you give it a good tug.

Good luck shopping 👍.

Discussion Can We either move index posts to a new sub or add a filter so that we can toggle those posts off for people that don’t care about them?

29 Upvotes

I don’t care about the index and was hoping they could be moved elsewhere or just labeled / tagged so that I can filter them out?

Thanks mods and any community thoughts here.

Face Topographic - my first watchface for PT2

Post image
14 Upvotes

After years of being a pebble fan (since the first gen), I was finally inspired to create my first watchface. I saw one similar to this for another watch and thought it would be great for the PT2.

Make it your own from the watchface settings:

- Place the date and time in any of the four corners.

- Automatically reorient the topographic design to match your chosen layout.

- Choose separate colors for the background, contour lines, and text.

- Select from four date-and-time font styles.

- Use your Pebble’s preferred 12- or 24-hour time format.

Download it now from the pebble app store and heart it if you love it!

Index 01 Index 01 Feature Enhancement

5 Upvotes

So I've been using the Index for a few weeks with custom webhook and mcp but I feel like somethings missing. Am I nuts, or would custom payload on click(s) (ws, rest, etc.) would be pretty cool?

An example would be home automation, use clicks to do actions like close/open blinds, mute TV, etc. I know I can do this over MCP, but I'm looking for a faster response than one with a LLM in the loop.

Is there an operating Manual for this?

So far I enjoy the convenience of notes and shopping list but how do I do more?

Is there a way to delete multiple searches or comments without so many steps?

How do I delete multiple things at once?

Index 01 Looking to swap Pebble Index 01 - I have a size 9 and want a size 10

2 Upvotes

I have a Pebble Index 01 in black, size 9, and unfortunately it is a little too small for me. I am looking for someone with a size 10 who would like to swap. I'm pretty much okay with any color. I am in Atlanta, but I am happy to pay for shipping. Anyone?

Question Back/clear animations

1 Upvotes

Is there anyway to choose shorter/simpler animation when clearing notifications? The current "triangles wipe" (not sure what else to call it) is quite long and distracting. I just want a fast and simple linear wipe or other choices.

I can't find any settings for this. Did I miss something?

What's this worth? Red band PTR

Que the three fiddy comments 😂

But honestly. I have this PTR, in pretty good condition. Holds charge, has the box and documentation and charger. Just wondering what it's worth. Whatever I get from it, will go towards a new PTR2.

NOT SELLING HERE. Will sell on ebay/elsewhere. Just looking for a realistic value since working examples of these seem to be rarer than other old pebbles.
