    Excellent condition be prepared for only 1 strap

    I purchase this Apple Watch 3 Geek Squad Certified Reconditioned in hopes of saving a little off the retail price. The core Watch was in excellent condition with little to no signs of use. However the S/M strap was not included nor the instruction booklet which is usually packed in top of the Watch and includes the S/M strap. Unfortunately this was for my 14 y/o daughter and the M/L was installed and didn’t fit. Nothing in the description says “missing accessories” yet the “refurbished” description states all accessories original or comprable included. Tech support must not have understood that and when I called in because I was told just send it back for a refund. New oem straps are $50 which kinda negates the savings so keep that mind that it’s a gamble of which size strap you may or may not get. It should come with both but I actually ordered three and two of the three arrived this way.

    Great watch

    These Apple watches are great. I use mine every day to listen to music, take calls, ask Siri random questions, and track my workouts. Couldn’t be happier with this device. Will be back for more!

    Good

    As a female that is petite I had to return this and get the 38mm. It just looked too big on my wrist. Of course I liked the watch as I still ordered another one.
