What do you want from a Pixel Watch 3?

For it have a 2-week battery life, no calling home, an e-ink non-screen, square, physical buttons, and to maybe be called a Pebble Time 3.

This still hurts.

You've described my perfect smart watch. I hate the rush for features and better brighter touch screens when all I want is a non intrusive notification device that won't accidentally call my boss fat when my wrist grazes any other part of my skin.

The Pebble was too good and spoiled my opinion of every smart watch I've used since.

I hope there is a valid replacement option for it, when my Pebble Time Steel finally dies in 2050.

I was thinking 100m water resistance, automatic movement with 24 hour reserve, and no date function.
