Just a quick question, I am buying a pebble smartwatch this sunday as long as they are in stock, what do I have to do since I am jailbroken because I am reading all over you must be jailbroken to have it work correctly. Thank you for your feedback.
 
I have one since I'm a Kickstarter backer. Only tweaks you need for your jailbroken device to take full advantage of the watch are BTNotificationEnabler and Smartwatch+.

Hope this helps. :)

What kind of things do you use? I haven't looked extensively at the pebble, just curious with a jb iPhone what the possibilities are.

You do not NEED them to take full advantage of a Pebble.

BTNotificationEnabler will let you have notifications from all apps sent to your watch with the ability to switch the ones you don't want off in case you care about battery life. I have it set to send me notifications from Missed Calls, Messages, CNN, Viber, Game Centet, etc.

For Smart watch+, you can learn more about it on their official site http://smartwatchplusapp.appspot.com/index.htm

I have heard different, such as notifications not working as well unless your jailbroken.

Exactly. Official Pebble app only pushes notifications from stock apps like Messages, calls, etc.
