Would have been such a great watch if it wasn't so horribly ugly. How they got that level of funding without a competent product designer on their team will forever be beyond me. #nooffense

#nonetaken, I do agree. If you got the chance, how would you redesign it?

Biggest problem for me is the Squat H-shape, big fat body with stubby arms/legs and a thin strap that doesn't seem to belong. I'd have worked a lot more on the strap region. There is also something very off about the screen size/bezel ratio, but now we're in Designer Vs. Engineer territory, obviously a lot of the design is somewhat dictated by the hardware. Pretty sure you could've done a lot better with the side profile and face curvature, though, it is simply not elegant in any sense. Would be fun to have access to 3D files of the innards to see how you could alter the shell with the current hardware configuration =)

That's a kickstarter project right there - a DIY make-your-pebble-look-nice kit. You can get a feeling for what's in it here (or by dissecting one, of course)
