I'm back to a "classic" analog watch as I realized I don't really want notifications. But I might buy a smart watch (probably Apple watch at this point since I have a bunch of iOS hardware) for the health features (HR, EKG, etc.)

I wrote a blog post about our plans to bring Pebble back, sustainably. https://ericmigi.com/blog/why-were-bringing-pebble-back We got our original start on HN ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3827868 ), it's a pleasure to be back.
