Pebble Brand Audit: An Indian Mark Filed in 2013, ₹8,999 MRP, and the Disclaimer in the Manual

Pebble in India is SRK Powertech Private Limited, which filed the Indian PEBBLE mark in September 2013 — three years before Fitbit bought the American company of that name. What the watches cost here, why ownership above the operating company is not established, where the medical-purpose sentence sits, and what the registers hold.

Two unrelated businesses have traded under the name Pebble, and a buyer searching for one in India will meet the other. The brand sold here is a consumer-electronics label run by SRK Powertech Private Limited, a company on the Indian register since 8 July 2013 with the status “Active”.

The dates settle it before anything else does. The Indian PEBBLE mark, application 2589559 in class 35, was filed on 2 September 2013, carries the status “Registered” and has been renewed to 2 September 2033. That is three years before Fitbit’s statement of 7 December 2016 that it had acquired “specific assets of Pebble, including key personnel and intellectual property related to software and firmware development”, adding that “The acquisition excludes the company’s hardware products.”

Google, which later bought Fitbit, wrote on 27 January 2025 that Fitbit’s acquisition took the Pebble OS with it. That is an American software lineage, and it has no point of contact with the Indian company already filing for the Indian mark in 2013. Two businesses, two paper trails, and nothing read joins them.

The short answer

Pebble in India is SRK Powertech Private Limited, incorporated 8 July 2013 and holding the Indian PEBBLE mark filed in September 2013 — a different business from the American smartwatch company Fitbit bought in 2016. Who owns SRK Powertech above the operating level is not established: the site’s own legal pages and the group they name do not line up, and no filing recording a purchase or a sale was read. The watches carry MRPs of ₹8,999 and ₹7,999 read on 24 September 2026, and the only medical-purpose disclaimer found sits in a downloadable manual rather than on any product page.

The two Pebbles, and the documents that separate them

A reader who remembers the American Pebble may assume the watches sold here are that brand revived, or made under a licence from whoever holds the name now. Nothing read supports either idea, in either direction.

What exists instead are four dated records. The Indian company was incorporated on 8 July 2013. The Indian mark was applied for on 2 September 2013, in class 35, and the published specification covers “Wholesale Retail, Trading And Import And Exports Of Travel Adoptors, Chargers, Power Banks, Power Chargers & Mobile Phones And Accessories” — chargers and accessories, with no mention of watches. Fitbit’s statement came in December 2016, and Google’s post in January 2025.

Two paper trails, in date order
  • 8 Jul 2013SRK Powertech Private Limited incorporated in India
  • 2 Sep 2013Indian PEBBLE mark filed, class 35
  • 7 Dec 2016Fitbit buys software and firmware assets of the American Pebble
  • 27 Jan 2025Google traces that software to itself

The Indian filings come first, and nothing read joins the two.

One caution on the mark. The official Indian register was not readable on 24 September 2026, so the record above comes from a mirror, and it covers class 35 only — nothing here speaks to the mark’s position over the watches themselves.

Who sells Pebble in India, and who owns that company

The first half is documented. SRK Powertech Private Limited is named in the site’s own Terms of Use, is the trade-mark proprietor, is the importer and marketer printed on the product pages, and is the warranty provider. Its registered office is in Gurugram and its importer address is in Noida, both as published, and this page draws nothing from the difference. The register mirrors also differ on the CIN itself — a second number appears on some of them, against the same incorporation date and the same paid-up capital of ₹51,16,610.

The second half does not resolve. The site’s Terms of Use, read on 24 September 2026, define the Company as SRK Powertech Private Limited “including any affiliate of Mensa Brand Technologies Pte. Ltd. and/or any group company of Mensa Brand Technologies Pte Ltd”, and its Privacy Policy repeats the group wording. Read the same day, that group now trades as BRND.ME, and its own “Our Businesses” page lists eight brands — MyFitness, Majestic Pure, Botanic Hearth, Villain, Katchon, Folkulture, Trust Basket and Party Propz. Pebble is not among them.

Trade press fills the space between: a report of 14 June 2022 describes the group acquiring Pebble, with no stake and no consideration given, and a report of 1 May 2025 says the stake has been sold, with no buyer and no date. Neither is a filing, and no filing recording either transaction was read.

Worth knowing

So this page names no owner above SRK Powertech, and it does not say the group has left either. Two of the brand’s own documents point different ways on the same day. Treat the operating company as the answerable party, because that is the name on the mark, the invoice and the warranty.

What Pebble costs in India

This site audits the Indian watch shelf brand by brand, Noise included, and Pebble is one of the few where every price is the brand’s own. All three figures below were read on its Indian site on 24 September 2026, with the same tax wording on each.

Model, as named on the page MRP Charged on 24 September 2026 Tax wording
Opal (PFB30), 1.19″ AMOLED, Imperial Gold ₹8,999 ₹5,399 (“41% Off”) “Inclusive of all taxes”
Spectra Go (PFB19), 1.43″ AMOLED, Black ₹7,999 ₹3,299 (“59% Off”) “Inclusive of all taxes”
Qore View (PFB14), fitness band, marked “Pre-Order” ₹6,999 ₹4,499 “Inclusive of all taxes”

Pebble’s own Indian product pages, read 24 September 2026. The Opal’s Blush Gold and Sterling Silver finishes were charged ₹4,999 against the same ₹8,999 MRP the same day.

Those MRPs set the band. Watch tiers on this site run from Budget under ₹3,000 to Luxury above ₹1,00,000, and ₹8,999 and ₹7,999 put Pebble in Mid. The one marketplace listing found for the brand carries an MRP of ₹9,999 and was charged ₹3,599 on the same day — a single listing, described as one listing and not as a shelf.

What cannot be done here is the comparison this site runs on every imported brand. Pebble’s shipping policy says it ships “within India only”, and no Pebble storefront outside India was found, so no foreign list price exists to set beside the Indian one and the like-for-like test cannot be run.

What the pages claim, and where the disclaimer sits

Pebble sells wellness. The Opal page headlines a “NexGen Wellness Suite” and lists “24×7 Heart Rate Monitoring… SpO2 Monitoring”. The Spectra Go’s specification row reads “24×7 AI Health Monitoring, Heart Rate monitoring”. The Qore View page goes furthest: it calls the band “a personal health consultant”, says it is “Equipped with high-precision sensors” keeping “a constant watch on your vitals”, and invites the buyer to “track your resting heart rate to keep your cardiovascular health in check”.

Two things are worth saying about those claims before the disclaimer. The first is what Pebble does not claim: across all 123 products in its Indian catalogue on 24 September 2026, no description offered blood pressure, an ECG, atrial fibrillation or an irregular-rhythm notification. The features named are heart rate, SpO2, HRV, sleep, stress, body temperature and menstrual tracking.

The second is where the qualification lives. Across those same 123 product descriptions, not one contains the word “medical”, “not intended”, “diagnosis” or “disclaimer”. The only medical-purpose sentence found anywhere is inside the Spectra Go user manual, a PDF the buyer downloads from a link on the product page.

Although the Smartwatch can detect the real-time dynamic heart rate, it cannot be used for any medical purpose.

That is a finding about placement, not about sensors: this page says nothing about whether any Pebble device measures anything well or badly. The health claim is printed in the headline, the description and the specification table on the page a buyer reads before paying, and the sentence qualifying it sits in a separate document the buyer has to open on purpose.

What the registers hold

Neither register a reader would want here produced a record. The specification tables on the Opal, Spectra Go and Qore View pages carry a model number, a generic product name, a country of origin and, on two of three, an importer line — and no standards registration number and no standard number. The manual carries none either, and the standards body’s own database was not readable on 24 September 2026. So nothing here says whether a registration exists, only that no number is published where a buyer would look.

On the medical-device side, the government’s online system for medical devices was opened on 24 September 2026 and its public approved-device list showed no searchable records that day, and searches for a registration or an import licence naming SRK Powertech or Pebble in connection with a medical device showed nothing. No registration record was read. That is a statement about what could be seen on the day, not about the brand’s standing.

Where a Pebble watch is made, and what the listing declares

The brand publishes one manufacturing fact and no more. All three product pages read on 24 September 2026 declare “Country of Origin : China”. The Opal and Spectra Go pages name “Imported & Marketed By: SRK Powertech Pvt Ltd A-12, Hoseiry Complex Phase-2, Noida, UP-201305”; the Qore View page names no importer or marketer at all. None of the three declares a packer, and none gives a month or year of packing or import. No factory, no contract manufacturer and no manufacturing statement of any kind is published beyond that origin line.

The single marketplace listing found for the brand, read the same day, agrees on origin and adds an importer line of its own: “SRK Powertech Pvt Ltd, G 201 Sector 63 Noida Uttar Paradesh 201305”, spelling as printed. Its manufacturer line is blank. The seller of record on that listing is named as “Supercom Net” — a company called Shreyash Retail Private Limited owns a registered mark reading “Supercom Net” in class 35, and no document read links that company to this brand.

The advertising record

A search of the advertising council’s complaint-outcome, non-contested and direct-violation registers on 24 September 2026, under “Pebble” and “SRK Powertech”, showed no matter naming SRK Powertech Private Limited: the four rows the keyword brings back name a property advertiser, Abhinav Group and its “Pebbles Greenfields”, and are filtered out. A control search in the same session showed rows for a company with a known record, so the zero is a reading and not a failed query. The council is a self-regulatory industry body rather than a statutory regulator, and nobody has ruled on any Pebble advertisement in India.

Warranty, and the clauses that take it away

The Warranty Policy states no period at all. It says instead that “The warranty timelines for each Pebble product are listed in the product description and are also included in the Pebble product box.” The Spectra Go and Qore View pages carry a “1 Year Warranty” badge; the Opal page carries no badge and no period, so for that model the policy’s own pointer leads nowhere.

Cover is conditional in three ways a buyer should price in. Registration is mandatory — “Customers must register their product on the Pebble website for warranty coverage” — and the form asks for the model, the place and date of purchase and an uploaded invoice. The invoice itself must carry the seller’s name and address, the date and place of purchase and the GST number, and Pebble “reserves the right to refuse repair or service if any of these details are missing”. And after six months, the buyer pays to send it: “customers must self-ship products if they are older than 6 months from the date of purchase”, with Pebble “not responsible for any loss or damage that occurs during transit”.

The exclusions run long, and two stand out. Skin reactions are excluded by name: “Pebble will not cover any claims related to rashes or skin allergies caused by the use of Pebble products, nor will we provide repairs or replacements for such issues.” And an end-of-life clause voids cover on units physically marked NW, R, QR Code, WV or NW_DD — no warranty, rejected or refurbished, discontinued, damaged or demo — with service centres told that “No warranty job card should be created for these units” and buyers of them acknowledging “zero warranty support”. Those marks are on the unit, so a discounted Pebble bought outside the brand’s own channel is worth turning over.

Sitting against all of that is clause 9 of the site’s Terms of Use: “We expressly disclaim any warranty or guarantee in relation to any product listed on the Website.” Both documents were published on the same site on the same day, and this page prints both without reconciling them.

What a buyer can check, and what the brand says about itself

There is no way to verify a specific Pebble device. The “Register Your Product” form asks for a model, a place and a date of purchase and an invoice; it has no serial-number, IMEI, QR or scratch-code field, and it returns no result to the buyer. That absence is a real one: boAt, audited separately here alongside Apple Watch, runs a live product-verification page that was working on 24 September 2026, so the same search finds a portal where one exists. No list of authorised Indian sellers is published either.

The About page, read the same day, is confident: “10,000+ retail partners”, “200+ corporate partners”, “15+ marketplaces”, a “900+ strong pan-India service network”, “Top 5 in Indian smartwatches” and a page title calling Pebble “India’s fastest growing smart watch brand”. None of those names a research house, a quarter or a metric, so they are quoted as claims rather than figures — and the service-centre page publishes a city search rather than a list, so the 900-plus figure has nothing on the site to check it against.

Common questions

Is this the same Pebble as the old American smartwatch?

No. The Indian brand belongs to SRK Powertech Private Limited, incorporated on 8 July 2013, which filed the Indian PEBBLE mark on 2 September 2013. Fitbit announced its purchase of the American company’s software and firmware assets on 7 December 2016, and Google traced that software to itself in January 2025. Nothing read connects the two businesses in either direction.

Who owns Pebble in India?

The operating company is SRK Powertech Private Limited, and that much is on the register, the mark and the product pages. Above it, the position is not established: the site’s Terms and Privacy Policy named a Singapore group on 24 September 2026, that group’s own brand list read the same day does not carry Pebble, and no filing recording a purchase or a sale was read.

Where are Pebble watches made?

China, on every declaration read. All three product pages checked on 24 September 2026 declare “Country of Origin : China”, as does the single marketplace listing. Two of the three name SRK Powertech as importer and marketer at a Noida address; the third names no importer at all, and none of them declares a packer or a packing date.

Do Pebble’s pages carry a medical disclaimer?

Not on the product pages. Across all 123 products in the Indian catalogue on 24 September 2026, no description contained the words “medical”, “not intended”, “diagnosis” or “disclaimer”. The one qualification found is in the Spectra Go user manual, a downloadable PDF: “Although the Smartwatch can detect the real-time dynamic heart rate, it cannot be used for any medical purpose.”

What is the warranty, and what voids it?

One year is badged on the Spectra Go and Qore View pages, and nothing is badged on the Opal. Registration and a GST-bearing invoice are conditions, self-shipping applies after six months, and skin allergies are excluded by name. Units physically marked NW, R, QR Code, WV or NW_DD carry no warranty at all, whatever the purchase date.

The FA take

Pebble is easier to hold responsible than most of this shelf, and the reason is that one company does everything. SRK Powertech Private Limited is the mark’s proprietor, the importer, the site operator and the warranty provider, so a buyer with a problem has one name, one CIN and one Gurugram address to write to. The prices are the brand’s own, printed as MRP inclusive of all taxes, and the origin is declared on every page read.

The gaps sit beside the selling. A “personal health consultant” with “high-precision sensors” is advertised on the page, while the only sentence limiting that to non-medical use is inside a PDF manual, on a ₹8,999 device aimed at people watching their heart rate. No registration number is published where a buyer would look. The Opal carries no warranty period while the Terms disclaim warranty outright, the six-month self-ship rule puts the courier bill on the buyer, and skin reactions are excluded by name.

At ₹3,299 to ₹5,399 charged, a Pebble is priced as the accessory it is sold as — buy it that way, register it the day it arrives, and read the manual before you read the marketing.
