So after more than a year after I got my Pebble, Pebble Smart Watch is now officially available in Singapore.

It is being brought in by Leader Radio Technologies (LRT) and that makes LRT the sole distributor of Pebble in Singapore.

pebble.sg
If you bought a Pebble in Singapore from the above-authorized retailers, you automatically qualified to join the pebble.sg Club. It is an exclusive club for Pebble owners in Singapore. pebble.sg is designed to be a platform for Pebble’s fans to discussing all things Pebble, the club also provides members with access to yearly Pebble events, discounts on Pebble accessories, and a whole suite of after-sales services.

Here are the perks:

  • Invitation to 2 pebble.sg yearly events
  • 20% off tailor-made leather straps at 310 Woodland Leathercraft
  • 30% off original Pebble accessories (Available at the Pebble/LRT office in Singapore)
  • 2 free watch surface polishing services (Worth $100)
  • Exclusive after sales support service

If you bought your Pebble watch from Kickstarter or getpebble.com, you have to pay S$60 to be part of the pebble.sg Club.

Closing Thoughts
getpebble.com is selling the Pebble at US$150 which is about S$195 using an exchange rate of S$1.3 = US$1 (which is roughly the credit card exchange rate as of May 2014). Delivery to Singapore is free using USPS and it takes about 3-5 days.

So by paying S$54 (S$249 – S$195) extra, you will get to enjoy all those perks of being in the pebble.sg Club as well as local warranty.

Not too sure about you guys, but I will still order from getpebble.com because the price in Singapore and its benefits doesn’t really entice me. Besides, now is a bad time to get Pebble Watch because I am sure there will be smarter watches coming out this year like the Android Wear and the rumored Apple’s iWatch.
