Happier Than Expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased an open box watch which I thought I would never do but so far, I haven't had any problems with the open box and even though it wasn't a huge savings, it was enough to cause me to get the 3 series instead of the 2. I bought this watch to replace a broken fitbit and I am so glad I did because it so perfectly pairs with my mac air, iphone 7 and ipad I own. I was surprised by friends that say they don't use many of the features on the watch because I am 60 (supposedly older people don't understand tech stuff) and I use so many features on this watch. I recommend you go online, download the instruction manual (over 300 pages) use the table of contents to skim what you don't think you'll need and read the parts you might use. In addition to all of the sport tracking features I love the little things, I can ping my phone (which I am always losing), it automatically opens my mac air, I can silent my phone without taking it out of my purse, I can see who is calling me and send a short response without taking my phone out of my purse, I can set up my clock face to my specifications so that I can see the time without my reading glasses or know what time it is in Dublin where my son lives. I can quickly make it waterproof before I wash dishes or bath the dog and if I want I can wear it when I swim laps at the YMCA but I haven't tried that yet. I guess you can tell I love this watch.

Love the Series 3
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't need the latest and greatest, or the EKG, or even the fall detection. What I really needed was a watch, that could work with my phone, fit my wrist, give me directions and work with my laptop. It's perfect. It works. I can't use my phone of the sales floor, but I CAN phone through the watch, help my customers, answer the business phone and send texts through the watch, all without missing a beat. I cannot tell you how fascinated my customers are, and how many questions I get about the Series 3 AND the Series 4 I bought for my 87 year old and she loves it. I also cannot tell you how many times I will see a customer, having explained how I use my watch, who has gone to Best Buy or Apple and bought their own, and have come back to thank me and share how they use their watch! BTW I drive horses Combined Driving. The watch is very good for keeping me on pace AND on course :D

Gold replaced Rose Gold for Series 3. Great change
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Apple discontinued "Rose Gold" for Series 3 watches. But they changed the "Gold" color from the Series 2. My wife and I both like the new Series 3 Gold. It's somewhere between Gold and Rose Gold. And the wristband is a better Pink. The actual watch is, of course, awesome! She got the one without Cellular (with Cellular you will have to pay $10/mo to your cell phone provider for the watch). You will get all the same features on the regular Series 3 watch that the Cellular one has. The only difference is that Cellular will let you leave your phone at home or in the car and you will still be able to receive calls and texts on your watch. But most people don't need that.

First time Apple Watch owner
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the series 3 on sale because I wasn’t sure if I would like or use. After a slight learning curve, I love my watch. I bought the blue tooth only version. No cell. It allows me to leave my phone and sit on patio or work in garden and not miss a call or text. It will reach as far as your WiFi system will. We went out on jet ski and as soon as we arrived back near dock my messages started coming through. The voice messaging has been exactly correct and did not print things I did not say. Very accurate. Also, have it water resistant to 50 meters makes it easy to wear around the pool, lake, boat.

Make the purchase
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had wanted to get a watch to track my everyday steps and fitness but I didn’t want a Fitbit nor did wanta Garmin because I wasn’t that active and I also wanted something that synced to my phone well. Since this was Apple just like my phone I wanted to give it and try and wow if I had the money I would 2 more of these as gifts.

Q: QuestionDoes the Series 3 watch with only GPS (not cellular) have the Apple Music capability (streaming up to 40,000 songs or whatever the number is), or is that feature exclusive to the GPS+cellular versions of the watch?
Asked by KaylaS.
- A:Answer I bought this watch few days ago, had same question but now I do have an answer. The watch that is non cellular and only has GPS has 8 gig internal memory. I have 215 songs and now I only have 2.2 gig left. So It won't hold 40,000 songs; but I am loving it because I can leave my phone in the car locked and hit the gym. To me it has full function of ipod with some adds on feature. To play the music you must have Bluetooth headphone paired, it doesn't work on speaker.

Q: QuestionCan you leave phone at home and still make calls from watch?
Asked by Quail.
This question was asked about the related product: Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS), 38mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band - Space Gray Aluminum
- A:Answer The series 3 has a GPS or a GPS with cellular option. If you get the GPS option (without cellular) you cannot make phone calls with your watch separately from your phone.

Q: QuestionDoes the GPS watch have to be connected to Wi-Fi in order to send/receive texts (while being close to the phone?) Verizon said in order to do so I'd have to put it on our plan for an extra charge.
Asked by confusedbank.
- A:Answer I purchased the GPS watch and can still receive phone calls, texts and reply to them from my watch. As long as your phone is in the distance to be picked up you will get the notifications. I left my phone in my office at work and walked around the office- I received all my texts and phone calls. You don’t need the cell service to get these things. The cell service is only for the person that doesn’t always have there cell phone close. So in that case the watch acts like a full cell phone service and all without your phone any where near it. You could leave your cell at home and go to work with your watch. I find the GPS watch to work wonderfully!! I highly recommend it!

Q: QuestionWhat's the difference between GPS and GPS + Cellular? Will I be billed extra by my carrier if I buy the GPS + Cellular?
Asked by JennyP.
This question was asked about the related product: Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS), 38mm Space Gray Aluminum Case with Black Sport Band - Space Gray Aluminum
- A:Answer YOU choose whether to pay the extra $10/ month to your current iPhone carrier. For example, if you have ATT for your iphone carrier, then you call ATT and add the watch to your plan. They charge you $10 plus taxes and fees.. You do NOT GET A DIFFERENT number for the watch. You use the same number as your iPhone. Both will ring - and when you are out on a run or bike ride etc, you can leave your iPhone at home. You can turn the $10 additional fee off any time. Watch works fine without it. But without the watch cell fee it requires the iPhone nearby to make and receive calls ( via Bluetooth)
