The difference in price comes down only to aesthetics and material quality. The Pebble Time is a lightweight plastic watch, while as its name suggests, the Pebble Time Steel is made of metal. Both are available in silver and black, with an additional gold option for the Time Steel.Sep 6, 2016

The Pebble Time Steel has the best quoted battery life of up to 10 days (which we found to be more like seven in normal use, but that's still impressive). The Pebble Time has the next best battery life claim of up to seven days (five in normal use for us).Sep 23, 2015
