Programmable Watch Fun While You Wait for Apple; Paging Illini Pebble Fans

[sekker]

I discovered a totally fun feature of the Pebble smart watch - a web-based watch face design tool!

Here are a couple I made for Iliini fans (don't need a Pebble to see the watchfaces):

1) With the Univ of Illinois Seal

2) For Illini Basketball fans.

I'm working on a genetic one so I can have my own decoder watch!

PS I am absolutely sure it won't be this easy to program an Apple Watch...

Man, I'm really tempted to finally snag a Pebble. Does it work well with Bluetooth 2.1? How scratch resistant is the face?

Works fine with Bluetooth 2.1.

The screen is plastic, so I put a screen protector on it.

And you can make watch faces online.? Pretty neat stuff.
