The Pebble, as a black and white e-ink Watch, was more of a niche offering. Apple created a sleek, colorful product with mass market appeal that was also deeply integrated with the phone. So basically it was innovative in every way and also not in any way, as a matter of interpretation?

Android Wear was introduced a year ahead(2014) of Apple Watch(2015) with everything you stated. It was still great but not as innovative as the iPhone or the iPod was.

Thanks! I don't wear a watch so a smart watch doesn't appeal to me, so I never followed the product releases but you miss some of the nuanced history if you try and read what happened after the fact.
