    So far, I’m happy with my purchase. I’ve only had it for a few weeks. I still need to charge it once a day which I had hoped wouldn’t be the case for new iwatch. I like having the newest features such as the Heart rate monitor. I dont regret buying an open box item, it was packaged well and seems brand new.

    Always Check An Open Box "Excellent" Item!

    The Best Buy website states that: "Open-Box Excellent" "Products in Excellent condition look brand new — with no physical flaws, scratches or scuffs — and include all original parts." "The product will be in its original packaging or a suitable replacement box." I have purchased "Open-Box Excellent" items from Best Buy. For the most part they have been good purchases. On occasion though they have been very disappointing. This was the most disappointing one. I wanted to purchase a Series 8 watch to pair with my iPhone 13 but there were no sales so I decided to give an "Open-Box Excellent" quality one a try. I made my purchase on line and waited for the notification before driving to the Best Buy to pick the watch up. Because of previous experiences with "Open-Box Excellent" items and the condition of the box that was presented to me, I asked the customer service person to open the so we could check the watch before I left the store. It was good that I did. The boxes (watch and band) looked like the previous owner had crushed them while trying to open them. They were dirty and torn around the edges and held together with tape. The watch body had some sort of white substance (I really hope it was paint) smeared into all of the seams and the watch face had three large scratches in it. I told the CSR that I did not want this purchase and was told I would need to returns to take care of that. The return took about 35 minutes so I ended up wasting about an hour and a half if you include drive time. There are four Best Buys within range of my home and I have found that one does not seem to care about how returned items are graded while one does an excellent job. I no longer purchase anything from the former. It is disappointing that the grading system cannot be trusted. To keep from wasting time I would highly recommend checking any "Open-Box" item before you leave the store. The Series 8 went on sale the next day and I purchased one for the same price as the open box one - at the Best Buy with the better quality control.

    This is my first Apple Watch ever. I love it so far. I love having a little genius/extension to my phone on my wrist all the time. I was worried about charging it daily being a pain, but the battery is better than expected. I charged it to 98% yesterday at 8am, it’s exactly 24 hours later right now and it’s at 42%. It also charges crazy fast.
