And worth every penny. (I say this as a former pebble and then rebble user.)

I moved from Pebble to Casio F-91W. Worth every penny!

Ha, I actually did the same, albeit after using a succession of disappointing Fitbits. In the end I realised that what I mainly cared about was having the time on my wrist, and I could leave everything else. So I ended up with the steel strap, EL-illuminated version of the F-91W.

Different users; different needs!

I recently did this band-swap "new" for a total of like $70 all-in.

I can also strongly recommend the Timex Expedition (analog) with easy-set alarm, and the Casio WV-58 styles.

The easyset alarm is described here: https://youtu.be/v6Fdt5y3p9A ...and it's super useful! I have like 4 versions now since supplementing and band-replacing my original from actual 1999... unfortunately you've got to chase eBay on those nowadays.

The waveceptor isn't that expensive and I use it as my "reference watch" when setting my other watches since it's atomic.
