Best Apple Watch Deals: Don’t pay full price for an Apple Watch

Macworld

The Apple Watch is the best smartwatch you can buy, but it’s not cheap. Luckily, you don’t have to pay full price for an Apple Watch.

Apple just overhauled its entire watch lineup with the Series 11, SE 3, and Ultra 3, so be on the lookout for ultra-low prices on previous-generation models as resellers clear out stock. We might not get any major discounts on the new models for a while, but there are likely to be good deals on the older Series 10 and Ultra 2.

Resellers frequently offer fantastic deals on all models, and in this article we are also tracking deals for the new Apple Watch 11, SE 3 and Ultra 3 as well as the older Apple Watch 10, SE 2 and Ultra 2.

If you’re not sure which Apple Watch is right for your needs, take a look at our Best Apple Watch buying guide. We also have a guide to the best Apple deals right now on all Apple products, including MacBook Air deals, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac mini, iPhone and iPad.

Amazon has its a pre-holiday sale, Prime Big Deals Days, running October 7-8, so do take a look at our top Top Prime Day deals on Apple gear.

Best refurbished Apple Watch deals

One of the best places to look for Apple Watch deals all year round is the Apple Refurbished Store. There, you’ll find huge Apple Watch discounts, sometimes even on the latest models. These Apple Watches have been returned to Apple for various reasons, and then completely revamped for resale. One of the major benefits of buying a refurbished Watch from Apple is that it will come with a one-year warranty so Apple may fix or replace it for free should anything happen to it in that first year.

In the U.S. you can get an Apple Watch Series 10, 9, 1st and 2nd generation Ultra, or the SE for less than full price. You can, for example, get a refurbished 1st-gen Apple Watch Ultra for $499.
