I could be wrong - I'm sure @jeffmer will be able to say for sure, but I think the P8 is basically the same watch as the PineTime and that is supported (you need to install the Espruino firmware on it though).
There is the potential for having a more complete firmware for other watches which implements the
Bangle.*functions, and then it'd be compatible with many unmodified apps from https://banglejs.com/apps/ - but I think for many people using these other watches, creating their own set of apps is half the fun anyway :) -

Thank you, you are very kind. On what website are the firmware installation instructions?

Follow the link to github for firmware instructions:
https://github.com/jeffmer/WatchApps -

The firmware directory (https://github.com/jeffmer/WatchApps/tree/main/firmware) does not work, where can it be downloaded? I can't find copies from that website.

Try branch master https://github.com/jeffmer/WatchApps/tree/master/firmware

The firmware referenced above should work on the PineTime, however, I have not tried it. There are some pin out differences which you can find listed by @atc1441 here https://github.com/atc1441/ATCwatch/blob/master/ATCwatch/pinout.h. These can easily be dealt with by editing the Espruino device driver modules. There are quite a few different versions of the P8 with different accelerometers which can again be dealt with in Espruino code.
There are I think some posts from @fanoush on this topic (or comments on his Github repository).

I think it would be a big step for the PineTime to be a Bangle compatible watch. As you can see in the second link, there are several non-Bangle watches that are compatible with some applications
