I am checking my watch every hour

I'll give it a week before even thinking too much about it. Also if it's going to be similar lollipop update rollout we might need to factory reset to get it fast.

I say it starts rolling out in March.

From the Wear Support forum: "To successfully receive the update on your watch, please make sure your watch is on its charger overnight and connected to your nearby phone by either bluetooth or Wi-Fi (Android phones only). "
So yeah, keep em' connected to the charger and phone

Have to say I have never been less excited about an update to the watch. Nothing really new announced. Don't use any of the gestures anyway. Wish they would allow the use of two or more languages for voice commands.

people are reporting that moto 360 (1st gen) is getting android 6 update in these hours...
edit: moto 360 2nd gen too

 

[flash3d]

Not to excited either, secretly hoping that they make the "ok Google" command more sensitive again. Since the latest update it's a hit and miss.

i really hope for a better battery live, android 6 is great on smartphones

You might get a notification, but I doubt it will successfully install (assuming OTAs are handled like other devices and must not be modified in any way).

Root or unlocked bootloader shouldn't cause problems with updates, and in case they do you can always sideload the update and solve the problem using adb.
I checked out the update on a moto 360 first gen, gestures are good enough, and I noticed also an improved smoothness. Battery life is also improved, especially in stand by mode or ambient (doze magic).
Keeping in mind all those benefits.. I want this update as soon as possible.

Did you do this before or after applying the upgrade? If you did it afterwards, it's useless as the URL won't be in there.

Otherwise, try searching for "googleapis.com" or just "http".
