Pebble Time 2 has now entered mass production. We’ve finished all the testing and design changes we need to make. Things are working very well!

Here’s the rough manufacturing and shipping schedule

We started mass producing a few dozens watches per day. Over the next month we’ll ramp up to our target of 500 per day.

The first PT2s will ship out during the last week of March.

With over 20,000 pre-orders, we expect to finish shipping around the beginning of June.

The previous Pebble Time Round had standard watch band pins.

It rarely fits 100%, colorwise. I'm a bit picky. It's more a fashion - access pure than a watch. Also prefer titanium.

It has iOS integration too. No google required.

Oh no. Neither of those devils is acceptable. That's what made this watch technically so attractive. But I would even prefer a "blank" watch for which I could do my own OS. I don't need 5821 background services and stupid apps and features 😁

The watch itself isn't running iOS or Google, to my knowledge. It's custom firmware. It'll connect to either of those phones though 🤷‍♂️

Yup, that's what makes it a good watch in my book.
