I've had the watch for some months now, and it works great with Android! With 4.3 and up, use can dismiss notifications on the pebble and they will be dismissed on the phone as well (using Notification Center). I use it to set timers on the watch (using Simply Alarm Holo) and also recently I've using it to track sleep with the Sleep as Android integration. And the biggest attraction to me for it is that with PebbleTasker you can trigger any Taskeer task you have set up to do pretty much anything you can think on your phone.
