hi guys there's something wrong with the search form so, i'm sorry if this has been asked many times. if i were to buy a Pebble directly from them via their website, how do i claim my warranty if there are any issues?

Just go to their website and log in your report. In my case with original Pebble, they responded my email within a week, asking you to take pic of serial number at the back of the watch and some pics of the problem as proof. Once confirmed, they will notify what should be done, worst case is they're going to send you a new watch without any need of you to send back the broken one (maybe due to expensive cost they need to bear). So I have 2 red original Pebble with me tongue.gif The whole process took around 3-4 weeks I think until I got the new watch.

nice.. sounds assuring enough for me to buy straight from their website. i'm planning on getting the Pebble Watch @ $99 (RM375,10). is there a possibility of the watch getting taxed? if so, how much would it be? 6% GST or something else? and how will it be settled; they contact me and hold my watch and i must go there and pay the tax?

I think most of us backers don't have any problem with customs. Or if happen to you, might wanna check this guide.

Edit: No GST charge on mine. Just a normal postman came to your house deliver the goods, didnt ask for any extra.
*
thanks for the guide man. should put this in the front page or something. oh if got GST charges the postman will ask for it? wah the watch may need a SIRIM sticker ah..? i don't even remember where i put my iPhone's SIRIM sticker already haha. and where is the closest SIRIM branch for Selangor/KL? the guide showed Penang, Labuan, Johor but no KL or Selangor area..

So far never heard anyone here got tax/gst from custom for the pebble delivery.....if they really tax/gst, they will let you know where and how to get it done....dont worry, you will get your watch eventually......
*
thanks for the re-assurance man. i tend to think of all the things that could go wrong before it even happens haha. i'll just take this one step at a time then and do what needs to be done when the time comes.

Pebble ships from States or Singapore? cause if i need to send it back, do i just send it back to States or wherever it ships from (in this case, Singapore)?

how long would it take for a Pebble (first gen) to arrive? i took the free shipping option and they gave me a tracking number for Singpost. that would mean they'll ship from Singapore right? would it still take weeks?

Though it will take around 2 weeks to reach on the cheapest postage

Dang this Pebble Watch is quote battery hungry. I thought it could last for a week given the e-ink display. And why is it that whenever i disconnect from my phone, my Watchfaces' color will be inverted? From black to white and white to black. Is it supposed to be this way? Disconnect and Watchfaces will be inverted?

Reason why the Color is inverted has to do with the watch face you are using.

Normal use of the watch should last you up to 5 days.
So far I have not reach 7 days yet.
*
Yeah only certain downloaded Watchfaces that were inverted when disconnected. Can change ah the Watchface setting to not let the colors be inverted? I think my usage is around 3 days. It did not die but the battery looked quite low

QUOTE(Lord_Ashe @ Aug 16 2015, 10:04 PM)
Average ia 4-5 days for me. No such issue with inverted watchface for me.
*
Try using the Ironman or MGS Codec Watchface and disconnect your phone. The colors will be inverted. 4-5 days battery low or dead already?

The reason why the color is inverted is due to the feature of the watchface you used. To show that the bluetooth is disconnected, the watchface color inverted. I am not sure whether you can disable it in the watchface setting.

For me, usually on the 4th day, there will be 20% left. 5th day will be 0%.
Averagely 20% usage/day
*
Oh so it's kinda like a warning? Okay i'll monitor my charging cycle; try to get the battery to die from a full charge and see how long it takes to die

QUOTE(Lord_Ashe @ Aug 17 2015, 01:36 PM)
Same average 15-20% per day
*
Okay will monitor closely

What is the difference between Pebble Time and Pebble Time Steel? Are there any difference in specs or is the difference just aesthetic only?
