I might go this route too. I love my urbane, it has great looks and, well, great everything, but charging a watch once every two days is getting old. I'm starting to suspect that OLED is a dead-end and that consumers don't want these watches mainly because of the charging hassle. Pebble seems to be the only company taking e-paper watches seriously. I understand you can't have smooth animations and video and such with e-paper, but its a watch, not a mini-phone. Too much of Android Wear relies on the concept of a mini-phone. Same SoC as a phone, same type of screen, etc.

But realistically I RARELY opened the other fun apps that benefited from the touch screen. 99% of the time it was Reminders, Notifications, Email previews, Voice Text replies, step counting, and of course... the time. All of which the Pebble does like a charm. And not having to squint at it in the sun is just pure joy.
