Pebble watches and Linc panoray

[thejean]

Just curious if anyone knows for sure if the pebble watches work with the new panoray and NSS systems on the 2017 G/GS series and 2018 210/230 boats? If so, which watch should we buy?

[charlesml3]

Yes, for sure on the 2017. I know because I have one and we use the Pebble all the time. I just buy the Pebble Classic. They're cheap and work just fine. As I understand it, the Pebble Time also works and adds "Ballast Shift" functionality but I personally haven't seen that.

As far as I know, they also work on the 2018. I have seen a photo of the 2018 LINC Bluetooth menu and "Pair with Pebble" was there.

Will the pebble watch work with any GS 20 or is that an option?

You must have the "Nautique Surf Select" option on the boat. If the boat came with the little blue remote, then you're good to go.

i purchased the pebble time. i used it last week on my G23 for the first time. It worked and it was easy to sinc. I downloaded the old software as I was told but I have purchased a new one and planning to update to the latest and greatest and see what happens.

What year is your boat?

2016 - Must use old version of firmware and app.

2017 and 2018- Latest and greatest.

So which is the better Pebble, the Time or the 2se?

As near as I can tell, none are any better than the other. They all run the same Nautique NSS app. That said, I understand that the "Time" adds "Ballast Shift" to the watch app but I can't see how that adds any real value. Would you really do that from back there? I just point at someone and motion for them to scoot over.

thejean I have both the Time and Pebble 2 SE but I prefer the Time merely for the graphics which are a little better than the 2 SE .

I'm hoping that Nautique comes out with a replacement strategy sooner than later. It's got to be almost embarrassing to be advertising tech features that involve the use of an obsolete accessory? I was actually surprised to see that the 2018 marketing info still referenced pebble watch at all...

Agreed. What's hurting them more than anything else right now is the crushing SILENCE. They're saying nothing at all. They didn't even say anything when Pebble shuttered its doors. I really wish they'd announce a plan, even if they don't put dates on it.
