Pebble 2/2HR Replacement Button Kit

 

This comprehensive button replacement kit solves the notorious button degradation issue affecting Pebble 2 and Pebble 2 HR smartwatches. The design features a dual-material approach for optimal functionality and durability:

 

What's Included:

  • Base components (left and right sides) designed for rigid materials like PLA or ABS
  • Four individual button replacements (3 for right side, 1 for left side)
  • Custom alignment jigs for precise assembly and gluing

 

Key Features:

  • Engineered to match the original Pebble 2/2HR button layout and feel
  • Buttons can be printed in flexible TPU/TPE for tactile response or rigid materials for durability
  • Two-part design ensures proper button action and prevents future degradation
  • Easy to install with included alignment jigs for perfect positioning

 

Printing Recommendations:

  • Base components: Print in rigid material (PLA, ABS, PETG)
  • Buttons: Print in flexible TPU/TPE (85A-95A shore hardness recommended) for best feel
  • Jigs: Print in the same material as the base for consistent fit

 

Assembly Instructions:

  1. Insert the individual button pieces into their corresponding slots in the base components
  2. Apply a few small drops of super glue to the clean Pebble watch side
  3. Carefully position and press the assembled base (with buttons) onto the glued watch surface (Being carful not to get any glue on the buttons themselves)
  4. Repeat the process for the other side of the watch
  5. Place the appropriate jigs on both sides of the watch to protect the buttons
  6. Use a vice to gently clamp the assembly together while the glue dries
  7. The jigs are specifically designed to prevent button compression during clamping
  8. Allow sufficient time for the glue to fully cure
  9. Once dry, remove from the vice and jigs
  10. The result should be a perfect flush fit with no gaps, restoring full button functionality

 

This kit provides everything needed to restore full functionality to your Pebble 2/2HR, extending the life of these beloved smartwatches that would otherwise be rendered unusable by deteriorating buttons.

P.S Note that this also supports both body shapes of the Pebble 2/2HR, as you can see in the final photos, the one with the slight incline at the ends and the one without.
