Hello Technology Enthusiasts,
I have had the pleasure to own the second generation Smart watch from Pebble (now taken over by Fitbit).
I have upgraded to Samsung Galaxy watch and hence willing to give away the set of Pebble watches for highest bidder.

I am realistic with my expectation.. so offer anything to exchange or cash.

I have a pair of Pebble Steel watches.
1x stainless steel
1x black stainless steel.

Both come with original box, a spare leather strap and the charging cable.

They are in excellent condition and the black watch hasn't been used at all but experienced few software glitches. not sure of the current state.. but for sure they work.
