We've designed Pebble Time specifically to be used in and around the water, especially for swimming because we love the swimming apps that are available on the Pebble app store! We're still finishing up our testing and certification so we're not ready to share the official water resistance rating yet. We have done additional testing, above and beyond what watches typically receive, that simulates swimming constantly for days on end - Pebble Time passed this rigorous test with flying colors.

Similar to the original Pebble and Pebble Steel we don't recommend diving with Pebble Time.

We're ramping up production right now. We've manufactured hundreds of units on our assembly line already and we are in the process of speeding up production to thousands and then tens of thousands of Pebble Times. Our factory is ready to work multiple shifts to meet demand!

In order to maintain compatibility with existing apps, we've kept the screen resolution the same at 144x168 pixels, or 180ppi. Images and text look much sharper on the 64-color display.

Nothing to share on the accessory port right now but lots more information is coming soon later in the campaign!

Our goal is to create a legible, high contrast interface that's usable by as many people as possible. We'd love to chat more about your specific needs and suggestions - feel free to drop a line to [email protected]

This type of issue as well as things like the choice of materials for the charging contacts are extremely important details we needed to pay attention to when we made the decision to place the charging connector on the back of Pebble Time.
