As someone who never wore a watch before I got a Pebble, I have to disagree with your first statement. I bought mine (and a subsequent Pebble Time) specifically because I wanted a less obtrusive way of checking messages and controlling my music, and it's filled the role superbly. I don't generally need nor want fitness trackers either, but the accelerometer does come in handy for use with sleep tracking programs.
