Replacement case for the Pebble 2 Smartwatch (does NOT include classic/OG pebble buttons)

Do you have failing or disintegrating buttons on your Pebble 2? Do you want a more permanent fix than replacement buttons or sugru to fix the holes? If so, please read on!

If you don't want to replace the whole case, you might prefer to just replace the buttons (which is much easier). Please take a look at my other models for some buttons.

If you do want a new case: This case is the result of a 4 month collaboration between me and Tation (the world's most avid pebble collector). The current version here is version 42!

In addition to the new case, you will need the following:

• A Pebble 2 SE or Pebble 2 HR (of course)
• A (preferably non-functioning) classic (OG) Pebble watch, from which you will need to remove all four buttons, making sure to keep all the button c-clips, o-rings and springs.
• The original back plate from your Pebble 2 (this case doesn't replace that piece)
• Some silicone, sugru or B7000 glue to fix the glass and back plate in place (only a very thin bead is needed).

Taking apart the Pebble 2 is straightforward, if a little fiddly, and here's Tation's photoguide to most of the steps: https://imgur.com/a/cvdagKI

Removing the LCD is the trickiest part. I found it easiest to snip the sides off the original case bit by bit, then wiggle the top and bottom frames until the glue lets go.

Tation and I are contactable via the Rebble Alliance Discord or on r/pebble on Reddit (u/Tation29 or u/astosia), so if you have any questions, please get in touch.

Please note that a home printed case is unlikely to be waterproof, so please use it at your own risk.

If you find that a home print isn't good enough quality, and Thangs/Shapeways shipping costs to your country are very high, please have a look at my website, as I keep some of the latest versions of the buttons and this case in stock. https://favouritehumandesign.com/product-category/pebble
