I like my original Pebble quite a bit. My use case might be different than most. I don't wear [edit: traditional] watches. Ever. Aside from a Pebble, I don't own a watch. I wear it when I travel, when I'm out and about meeting people / working, etc, where it would be both rude and annoying to check my phone every time it buzzed. A quick glance at my wrist is enough to know whether I need to respond soon or not.
I appreciate it while driving and while riding my bicycle.
That's 95% of my usage and I'm thankful I can go a full workweek on a single charge. One less charger to carry (and lose).
And in those times where I don't want the notifications buzzing (in meetings) I turn off notifs, or I shut off bluetooth on my phone.

A quick glance at my wrist is enough to know whether I need to respond soon or not. Checking your watch while in a meeting / talking to someone is also rude, at least to me.
