Before the dominance of the Apple Watch, there was one little time piece that beat out every other company to become a crowdfunding darling. The Pebble franchise may have been sold to Fitbit (and then to Google) years ago, but former founder of the company, Eric Migicovsky has announced that he is developing a successor to the e-ink watch in the near future.

This is all possible in 2025 due to Google making Pebble OS open source.

Migicovsky apparently has been developing a new Pebble watch for some time now as he has been in touch with Google and the watch will run old apps and watch faces from the Pebble store.
