I've got an OG Garmin vivoactive. Besides the naming bullshit of this being vivoactive and there now being a "vivoactive 1", it's great. It's a sidegrade to thebpebble, which I never thought I'd find. So now I just swap between this and the pebble when the mood suits me.

Love Garmin smartwatches.

I've been wondering what to get when my beloved Pebble dies. Good to know!

Check out the pebble communities online though, even the subreddit. There's new batteries you can get, and guides to repair. Barring that, there's always someone looking for even dead pebbles.
