Is it though? Nearly 10 years ago they were going to sell them in retail for 200$, now it is 225$, and its going to be so much better. My time steel lasted for so many years... And it was wonderful, I miss it so much. After the battery started to get too weak I started the search for an alternative, there's so little offering what pebble offers. Ended up with a Garmin, which is... OK, but the price makes me nearly consider it not worth it, around two years ago it cost me 350โฌ, and it was the cheapest version. It's probably great for super sporty people, but I just want a basic watch that helps me get notified and check a bunch of things.
In my opinion what pebble offers is incredibly good for the price, specially compared with what there is in the market currently.
There was no $70 alternative back then. There is now. Hell, my first smart watch was 30โฌ.

I never mentioned anything about how much it was 10 years ago. I'm talking about how much it costs now. To me, there are better alternatives in the same price range
