    I love this watch. My main focus is exercise and it allow me to track my time, heart rate and level of activity. It can even identify the type of exercise you’re doing. The only downside i see is since it’s not waterproof i cannot track my activity when swimming. On the usage, it’s very well built, easy to operate and establish a strong connection. You can answer your call from the watch and have a conversation through it if you’re busy.

    Even though this watch was refurbished I'm glad I purchased it! I bought it as a gift for my husband's birthday! He loves it! He won't leave the house without it. It is so easy to work and makes answering calls on the go a breeze. My Husband has rather large wrists and the extra watch band in the larger size fit him perfectly.

    Refurbished option saved me roughly $70 on a new one. Watch has great range for notifications and control of my phone. Watch is a little buggy at times with Messages, MLB At Bat, and a few other apps. That might be watch, or issue with my phone. Geek Squad forgot to include charger in the box so I had to work with customer support to resolve the issue. In the end I got a credit on my card to cover the purchase of a charger, travel time, and inconvenience. Overall I would recommend making this purchase. Just remember this version is not waterproof.

    Maybe because it was a refurbished watch but I don’t think I get all the notifications I should be getting. It looks good though but if I would’ve known I don’t think I would’ve paid what I paid for something that “looks good” but it’s really helpful

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    If you’ve always wanted an Apple Watch but can’t spring for a new full priced one, this is your key to happiness! Came in the original packaging with original accessories! No dents / scratches! Looked and worked as if it was brand new! I will always recommend GeekSquad Refurbished items!

    I'm kinda hesitant at first to purchase a refurbished item 'coz I wouldn't be sure about the quality, physical condition and completeness of the product. I'm very happy when I received my order, it looks new and works perfectly. I would recommend this product to all.

    Honestly I feel naked without it. I’ve got apps that track my sleep and heart rate. Notifications and the ability to text from your wrist is very helpful. I haven’t had any issues that restarting the watch couldn’t fix. I would purchase again.

    I'm slowly learning to use the features-I was painting and discovered how to talk on the phone with the watch instead of my iPhone 6s. The only problem I'm having is figuring out how to change my activity goal.

    It works very smoothly and it helps.to quickly check your messages. It counts higher distances than the phone so it needs some better alignment but tha would be all. Not to mention it also looks very nice.

    The watch was a great purschase for me. I use it all day at work and throughout my workouts. The battery life is ok but you definitely need to charge it daily.
