Pebble Steel Smartwatch Black Matte

We all need to be connected and accessible, but pulling out your phone at dinner to check a text message or incoming call is a bit gauche. With Pebble Steel, just a quick glance lets you read messages, see who’s calling or see important emails and never miss a beat. Or with hundreds of free apps, check the weather, stocks, train schedule and more. And yes, it also tells the time—with nearly 1,000 watchfaces to suit your style.

Ridiculous, right? Pebble Steel doesn’t think so. It’s waterproof up to 5 ATM (approx. 165 feet) so you can be accessible even while doing laps in the pool. With the available steel band, Pebble Steel is perfect for things like running in the rain or boating, while keeping your phone tucked away and dry. And while we’re on the subject of exercise, Pebble Steel also syncs with popular apps like RunKeeper, letting you track your progress from your wrist.

Discover thousands of apps and watchfaces to customize Pebble Steel to fit your life. Check sports scores with the ESPN app, listen to your music, or start voice navigation without having to touch your phone. Popular apps like RunKeeper and FreeCaddie help you track performance and enjoy what you love. Check in on FourSquare with a single click or find a place to eat on Yelp! Pebble is an open platform, so new apps are always in the works from our development community and partners, letting you take advantage of new watchfaces, games and other innovations. Control your favorite music apps—including iTunes, Spotify, and Pandora—from your Pebble without missing a beat while running, cycling or just playing music from a dock at home. With notifications, you can get discreet updates on the information that is most important to you. In addition to Caller ID, email, text message, and calendar alerts, you can choose to receive notifications from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and more.

Thanks to long battery life, Pebble Steel will go up to 7 days between charges. It notifies you when it’s getting low, and you simply connect it to a USB port using the easy magnetic cable. Then you’re good to go. Pebble Steel has easy-access Up and Down buttons to scroll through watchfaces and menus. The Select button takes you to the main menu, which includes music control, alarm, and settings. A simple tap on the watch or flick of your wrist will illuminate the backlight.
