Pebble Time review: an underdog among smartwatches

I'm very glad to see pebble stay in the game. That said, this is a pretty tough watch for a traditional watch guy to look at.

I hope that someone really nails the circular smart watch and embraces the rotating bezel as an input modality, like the 1st gen ipods or, more recently, Nest. I would love that, coupled with a traditional diver or tool watch look:

Maybe motorola will get it, but I wonder if their design sensibilities are too modern...

You should check out Olio Devices. I think it's clearly the best designed of all connected watches.

Samsung (of all companies) is apparently working on that...

It's a really safe bet that if there is a gadget / electronic category Samsung is working on at least 3 products in it. Sometimes that's good, sometimes not so much.
