You can see the dimensions in the full spec table on the preorder page

Oh great, I missed that end of the page. The "Round 2 details" links back to the blog and it is hard to see the FAQ on mobile (needs manual scrolling to the end).

Google search and Perplexity failed when I tried, too. Google search has caught up now (haven't retried Perplexity)

A 41.5mm diameter sounds good. That's a whopping 10mm/20% smaller than my current watch. Should be really neat given the thickness.

Is the Round 2 also going to have screws to potentially replace the battery, like Time 2 does?

Also, while watching the announcement video, I noticed that the pixels are quite a bit more visible on the Round 2 on the same watchface, when compared to Time 2 — on the Time 2, the image is a lot more crisp. Is that a matter of adapting the watchfaces to the bigger screen?

> Screws

Nope! No screws on this one.

Yes, exactly.

Why no screws when you specifically called out that there ARE screws on the Time and Duo 2s for the sake of longevity of hardware even if the company goes away?

Are you saying there's no access into the watch or that it's more like a traditional circular watch where you can twist off the back?

Dang, I really liked that there were screws on the Time 2. Does that at least mean waterproofing will be better? :p For instance, would it be a good idea to swim with the Round 2 on?

Still doing our water resistance testing on Round 2, but that is the target (30m water resistance)!

What is the breakdown of customers who care about advanced water resistance versus screws/repairability?

I imagine most want some water resistance (e.g. 1m), but people may be torn on 30m if it means they lose out on screws. I'm in that category.

It would be really cool to see data

30m (3 bar) basically means splash-proof, not even your stated 1m (activity while submerged, I suppose). Like, 30m is IPX4-5, 50m is IPX6 (very rough equivalence), so 30m is the barest minimum expected from a watch.

I wouldn't care so much about WR for a round Pebble, which I'd wear on nicer occasions. I would care more about WR for a watch that I'd wear at the beach or pool, as a way of getting notifications when not carrying my phone.

But screws might add thickness/weight to the watch, compared to glue.

A very worthwhile mention is also Stable-TS: https://github.com/jianfch/stable-ts

Out of the box it can transcribe with Whisper or Faster-Whisper, but it can also align audio with an existing human-written transcript, providing time information without losing accuracy. This last feature was something I really needed, and my attempt at building it myself ended up much worse, so I'm glad I found this

I self-host it using Modal.com, as do some other commenters

how much do you spend for modal.com?

I don't even go past their monthly allowance :) I don't have that much audio to process
