July 10, 2025

While most backers have already gotten theirhandswrists on the Kickstarter-fundedPebble Timesmartwatch, the high-endPebble Time Steelstill has yet to make its way to early adopters. That will change sometime very soon, according toan announcementmade by thePebbleteam on Kickstarter.

The Pebble Time Steel will start production this week and will begin shipping out to Kickstarter backers the last week in July. All backers should receive tracking numbers by the end of August, as long as production goes as planned. The metal-clad smartwatch will ship out to backers in both leather and metal strap varieties, though due to limited availability, some backers of the Pebble Time Steel will receive their metal bands as a separate shipment as more become available.

In addition, when the watch hits retail shelves, the metal band will only be sold as a separate accessory and won’t be included in retail units.
