Yeah, I'm a pebble wearer and have been for about a 2 years. You get used to it.
What's happened is: people got lazy at their notifications on their watch. Then they bought the Apple Watch (or rather, journalists got a review unit), and then they get lots of notifications on their wrist rather than on their phone and they complain about all the notifications.
Same thing happens with the Pebble and others I'm sure: you just have to take a minute and set up the notifications right so that your wrist buzzes when it's actually worthy of your immediate attention. When is that?
For me it's when one of eight people call me, my wife texts me, or when I get an email from one of three people. Those are the things that make me go "ok, sorry person I am talking to, but this thing has happened and I have to check it out."
These things happen maybe once or twice a day. Not once or twice an hour.
