QUOTE(vaires @ Apr 5 2015, 11:55 PM) It is a pain to wait till August. Ergh. Just wondering, let say if I have to pay tax for my Pebble time, as they hold it from me. Where I have to pay, and where to collect? Or will they send the watch to my home address? For the pebble time steel? Isn't it July ? Usually for duty tax, they will call you to head over to the customs office to pay and collect. Not sure about gst.

QUOTE(vaires @ Apr 20 2015, 05:51 PM) I paid expedited shipping because I can't wait longer as I want to give it as present. Haaa. So expensive. Is it worth to pay early GST? Or similar if I pay to kastam? Should be similar. Meh I think I'll wait. I'm not in a rush anyway. That amount can be used to get a cheap Timex lol.

QUOTE(acaptake @ Apr 21 2015, 05:22 PM) I decided to wait, coz afraid later still kena charge extra, now GST here GST there. That extra money maybe can purchase smartstrap when they're available. Looking forward for you early richies review on the watch! I think I'll wait as well, so it'll probably come end of August. Just in time for my B'day lol. No rush to get it a month earlier while paying an extra USD 33+

QUOTE(xproc @ Apr 23 2015, 10:01 AM) seems apple watch get more attention / apps etc... by the time my pebble time steel reach i already feel it is outdated... Yeap. But I personally feel it's not a matured product yet. Awesome yes, but I feel the next iteration will be much much better. I guess I'm not on the innovator/early adopters bandwagon this time around. So which color are you guys getting for the pebble time steel ?

QUOTE(PhantomThief @ Aug 24 2015, 06:41 PM) Okay, so after waiting all this time and paying for expedited shipping, I finally got a call today from DHL. And guess what? They said I need AP to ship the PTS here. Has anyone else had this ridiculous problem? Why the hell do I need AP for this? Excuse the language, but I am really extremely pissed off right now. That happens. It's Malaysia. How many did you get ? Sometimes they even expect you to head there and pay them some donation.

QUOTE(PhantomThief @ Aug 25 2015, 01:00 AM) I got 2, one for me and one for my better half. I've had lots of things shipped to me internationally in the past, haven't had any problems so far. Guess that streak of good luck was bound to end sometime, eh? With the current exchange rate. 2 pebble time is above RM 2k. Probably that's why you got called while the rest managed to escape.

But I would say it's worth the wait. Using a smart watch that can last a few days is good.

Which watch faces do you use ? Due to the large black bezel, I'm going with a simple customized din time. Battery life goes down about 15% a day though.

Pebble time round doesn't really suit my taste. Sure it's slimmer but the large bezel is still large.
The main selling point for pebble is their battery life. Reduce it to 2 days and.... for the same price, you can get smartwatches with equal functionality, as stylish, better screen, similar battery life and price.
