This was sold by BuySPRY and shipped by Amazon.

Seller aside, the watch works well, paired easily with my phone, all functions work as they should. So far the charge lasts and has exceeded my expectation for a refurbished watch.

This watch is incredible. I have done the following since having the watch:

Swimming
Cold plunging
Working out (weights)
Running
Sleeping (sleep monitoring)
Camping
Hot tub
Outdoor work (chopping wood, cleaning a nasty chicken coop, setting up a treestand)
Hiking
Dishes
Showering
Gardening
Wake boarding
Paddle boarding
Kayaking
Cliff jumping
Free diving (to 20-25 feet)
I’m sure there is more but I wanted to emphasize I’ve done A LOT with this watch. I also did a run on the beach but I took the watch off when going in the ocean. I possibly didn’t need to but salt water is just so corrosive I didn’t want to risk it.

This watch has performed flawlessly the entire time. I’m more than impressed. My son bought one of these new when they first came out and paid double what I paid.

My cons list is short: (and really not the seller but the watch itself)
I didn’t realize if you have a tattoo where the sensor sits it will not read correctly. I thought something was wrong with my watch but did a little research and found it was the tattoos on my wrist…I verified this by moving the watch to an area with then without and watching the watch shut off. I now choke the watch up a little closer to my hand (which can be annoying sometimes when working out) and it works perfectly. Also…I think sunscreen might affect the sensor as well. I had sunscreen on and the watch was doing a similar thing that it did with the tattoo. I wiped the sensor and my wrist off and it started working fine.
Lastly I do wish the watch came with a little better charger…the one they sent me works just fine but it’s slow as can be. The charger my son has charges our watched in 1.5-2 hours.

Overall…everything I’ve said below is just as (if not more) relevant. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy this watch again. I’m extremely satisfied.

I would have shared a picture or 2 but amazon asked permission to all my pictures and that isn’t happening.

I’m writing this knowing I’ve only had the watch for 3 days. I plan to update my review before the 90 day return runs out and after I’ve had more time with the watch.

I got this watch specifically from seller prime mobility. They have very high feedback ratings so I was happy to take a chance with them in this watch. I bought the watch in “like new” condition. The seller was prompt with shipping and communication. At this point I would recommend them highly.

The watch: blue series 6

I did a lot of research on what watch to get for fitness and overall health. It seems with all my research, for people who aren’t super techy and have an iPhone the Apple Watch is the way to go. I’ve never owned an apple or any other smart watch/smart device. I wanted this to track my 5 day a week gym workouts, sleep, and heart rate with running, meditation, and cold plunging.

I honestly only have 1 con at this point. The watch came with a sticker right on the health tracker and the glue was annoying (really not hard just annoying) to have to remove.

The pros are many: the watch came with %100 battery health witch I was surprised about. I’ve been using it and I’ve only had to charge it every 1.5 days. It also looks great. No visible issues, problems, blemishes at all. Lastly, the first day I had it I did a 10 minute cold plunge. The watch was under water for 10 minutes and had no issues. The watch quality meets my expectations completely and even exceeded them regarding battery life. I’m incredibly happy with my purchase. I can’t speak for other sellers but I feel prime mobility did me well in this purchase. Again, I will be updating my review before the 90 day return runs out but at this point I don’t have any concerns or apprehensions.

Battery life – Better than anticipated. Apple promises 24hrs, I’m seeing more than 36hrs.

Resolution – V good. Sharp & clear. Better than a lot of friends watches.

Touch sensitivity- Excellent. Accurate (even on the smallest of icons/text). V responsive and no lag no matter how quick or lightly u touch it.

Brightness – V good. I haven’t had it fade-out in the Florida sun and can always read it.

Fitness tracker – Excellent. The native work out app has multiple modes (gym, tennis, rowing, cycling) and can detect what activity ur doing. It displays pulse, active calories and total calories.

Health tracker – Excellent. The watch comes w blood oxygen monitoring, heart rate monitoring and more. I’ve only used the HR & BO and have found the pair to be accurate. Additionally, the latter have helped me fine tune some eating habits as I wasn’t aware how much certain foods affected my HR & BO.

Sleep monitor – V Good. I’ve found this has helped me drive towards a better nights sleep.

Apps – Excellent. Apple Watch has more apps than u can shake a stick at, and they work well.

Apple Pay – Excellent. The convenience of using ur watch over fumbling for a wallet or phone is off the charts. Additionally, it works perfectly.

Telephone calls – Excellent. Receiving and making calls is a breeze and has worked flawlessly. I never expected to use this feature but the watch speaker is loud/clear and the person at the other can’t tell I’m calling from an external device. This is especially impressive since the call is relayed through my iPhone.

Texting – Excellent. The Siri/dictation features are excellent. I can send receive texts flawlessly (no more phone fumbling) and the manual input works flawlessly too. The only drawback is u can’t select emojis but if u say “happy face”, Siri will insert the latter in character form.

Setup – It’s pretty much a breeze. Charge the watch, download the Apple watch app to ur phone. Put the watch by the phone and follow the instructions. Any apps that can b transferred from ur phone will be transferred.

Usefulness – Off the charts. This is not so much a watch but a miniature digital Swiss Army knife. The watch is unobtrusive and having so many of our daily digital-needs on a wrist makes life a lot easier.

There r a lot more features to suit how u would use it.

I thought I would find the short battery life a nuisance, not at all. Plus I don’t use the watch everyday….at times my wrist will go commando or I’ll wear a real watch to mix it up. I would recommend purchasing a protective case for it….the one I have is a chrome silicon thingy that protects against scratches, dings and has a raised lip to protect the screen.

I am so glad I gave this ‘6’ a try before purchasing a 7. The leap between the two is marginal (despite what the marketing dept would have u believe). V happy w purchase and hope to keep the device for a long time.

After it was charged and fully updated, I have not had any issues with it. Maybe a slight issue with touch sensitivity on the screen, but it is inconsistent and doesn’t cause any issues for me. Minor inconvenience at best.

Shipping was quick.
Price was solid, for being a refurbished.
Quality was great.
Compatible with my Iphone 14 and new IOS 26.
The strap was a little large for me but I made it work.
I have had an iWatch before, this was just an upgrade, but it is easy to use. Youtube is a great place to look at all the options you have for this watch.

One thing I was excited about was the added temp vitals. It takes about 5 sleep cycles (in a row) for it to start giving you data, but it seems to be accurate.
Heart rate and other vital recordings work perfectly. I have a better time using this watch than my prior iWatch. (I believe a 4 or 5?).

For electronics, I typically purchase refurbished. Sometimes they can come in damaged and not functioning properly, but I have had no issues with this watch from this seller.

10/10 would recommend.

Justify Your Purchase:
1. Do you have your phone around for the most part?
2. Do you usually drive places on your own?
3. Is this purchase more for structure vs. leisure/fitness?
4. Will you be around a polluted or dusty environment?
5. Are you experiencing stress, insomnia, or health complications?
6. For woman: Do you care about menstrual, ovulation, and symptom tracking while on your cycle?*

If yes to 3 questions with no interest in upgrading soon, purchase.

==== Review: Overall 4.5/5 =====
I hesitated to buy the watch because it was labeled “renewed.” Ironically enough, the product did me one better by not turning on. I struggled to contact the Seller because of Amazon and not the business. The watch did not work for the first 2-3 weeks because of the charger, but it’s perfect now.

Trust me when I say the mic quality is impressive. I’m not flashy, but I believe this purchase is worth it just with the mic ALONE. You’ll see me eating ramen for the next month to rock this! The watch makes me feel energized and productive.

I find myself using the watch more than my phone. There’s not one connection issue or call drop like there is on my actual phone. The box looked a little dinked, yet authentic. I assume the previous owner didn’t keep the box in shape. No scratches, the product includes a soft band, and the customer service is prompt and understanding.

I can only choose 4 or 5, so I decided on 5 because of the merchandiser.
==== End Review: Overall 4.5/5 =====

Series 7 v 8:
The Series 8 has Bluetooth 5.3, and the Series 7 has Bluetooth 5.0.
The 8 has temperature sensors that separate your data from outside factors like weather. If you don’t care about Dust protection, Crash detection, Ovulation predictions, or System trackers, go for the Series 7 for all the same features for ~10.

Pricing:
If you want to save cash, go for the Series 6 to save ~$100. It has all the same features as the Series 7. Its only differences are the 1mm screen and a slightly slower chip that won’t be noticeable for another 2-3 years. You will also have the option to add a cellular data plan for $10/month to purchase before prices are closer to the initial 7 or 8 models.

Cellular Data Plan v Raw Dawg:
The data plan is if you are typically 100m away from your phone. For all my struggle babies, 100m is a little more than half a football field or ~4 times the size of a basketball court. Do people run without their phones? Cellular data is ideal for hiking, amusement/water parks, and running because you can leave your phone locked away.

Im not the kind of person that needs to have the latest and greatest technology, I typically buy the newest gadget when the newer gadget comes out. Amazon refurbished is an absolutely amazing value for what you get!

I did not like the way the original wrist strap felt on my hand, the plasticy feel made my wrist sweat (though it was August in Texas yall, so ymmv) so I upgraded to a stainless steel band. Theres a million different aftermarket bands out there, and it is SUPER simple to swap. If youre worried about it fitting your hand, theres a strap for every size wrist. The band will effect rhe weight as well, I have a metal band, and the watch doesnt feel too heavy, though there are MUCH lighter options.
I did try one of the not name brand smart watches, and I have to say, this outperforms that thing in every way imaginable. I have a Samsung phone, so setting up the watch and connecting it is an absolute breeze. all of the features work as intended (something that was hit or miss with the chinese knock off), and I was surprised at the sleep tracking mode and a few othet aspects.
I do enjoy looking at my wrist for notifications, particularly when im busy, so I can avoid wasting time ignoring spam calls or a simple swipe of ill call u back or whatever.
The watch charges relatively quickly. Typically I charge it after I get off, while im making dinner and put it back on before sleep. I do really enjoy tracking my sleep, exercise etc. It even recognized when I had a couple of drinks (I got a notification that said my sleep was less than ideal which could be from drinking alcohol etc ) how did they know?! I only had 2 ocifer, dang.

You do need to download the Samsung wearable app and link it to a phone to get everything to work properly. I have Tello as my cell carrier and they also helped me to get everything linked. The watch will work independently from your phone if you wish to go exercise without your phone but you need a seperate line. This is exactly what I wanted. I don’t always like having my phone with me because of the bulkiness. The watch is great to connect to music apps and ear buds while exercising without all of the bulk. The watch band is very comfortable and the 47mm watch face is the perfect size. The rotating dial bezel was something different but very handy to quickly search through the watch for different apps and functions. Several watch faces are fully customizable to your needs.
So far the battery gets through the day without issue but I still have to test it during long music playback sessions to see what kind of battery drain there is.
Very happy with the watch and Chubbiestech. 2 thumbs up.

The major drawback is the battery, with AOD it lasts a day only. (I usually charge it every night to be safe) and the fact that this is a renewed model, so the strap was kind of little as premium as a brand-new one, though the watch itself looks and works like new (no scratches). It’s also a bit chunky on the wrist at night, but I’ve gotten used to it.

Overall, this watch delivers a premium feel, looks stylish enough for daily wear, and gives me all the health and fitness features I wanted. For the price, especially as a renewed product, I’d say it’s a solid buy, by far my use is not that Rough.

The only downside is the battery life — I need to charge it about every two days, and I’m not sure if that’s normal for this model. Other than that, it’s a sleek, comfortable, and feature-packed watch that works really well for daily use.

I reached out to the seller? They told me to go to Amazon. Amazon? No help. I am warning you now: DO NOT EXPECT CUSTOMER SERVICE. This seller is running a quick-cash scam, selling barely-functioning products, and banking on the fact that you won’t notice the defects in time.

If you see ANY AIR BUBBLES under your screen, RETURN IT IMMEDIATELY. Don’t convince yourself that it’s nothing—it means your watch is already breaking apart. And don’t expect a refund, because once you’re past that return window, you are stuck with their garbage.

I don’t care if they sell this watch for HALF PRICE—it’s NOT WORTH IT. Whether it’s for you, a loved one, young or old, this will ONLY cause frustration and disappointment. Your money is TOO HARD-EARNED to waste on a scam.

From now on, I’M ONLY BUYING FROM APPLE DIRECTLY. I will NEVER again put money into this ripoff seller’s pocket, and I strongly advise you to do the same.

SAVE YOURSELF THE MONEY, THE STRESS, AND THE ANGER—DO NOT BUY.

Yes, it comes in a generic box (not sure why so many people are concerned with this… it is a refurb after all)… but it was well-packed, the watch face was covered in a removable plastic film, the band looks new, and the charging cable is a new Apple USB-C charging cable.

I researched Ultra I vs Ultra II (and the Series 10) watches and decided that while the Ultra II has more features and a “faster processor”, these weren’t things that I *needed*. It came with features that are not automtically included with the Series 10 watches such as titanium frame. An extra control button, and a few minor other things.

It appeared that the “renewed” watches seemed to have a good track record and one came along with a band that I liked and I jumped on it.

I like this watch. Big learning curve, but I’m settling in. The unit I received seems to be in perfect condition, with a plastic protector over the face. No scratches or any marks that I can see. The one thing that surprised me, but just a little, is that it came in a crappy generic box. Nothing like how Apple packages their products. But I won’t be wearing the box, so who cares. It also came with a little charging disk/cord that looks like an EKG sensor. The charging thing works, but I bought an inexpensive night stand charger which I like.

One of the ingenious things about the Apple Watch is their approach to watch bands. I like the one that came with it, but to change a band is easy and takes only seconds. I ordered 3 more bands, but just sent back on. So many to choose from. The bands change the whole character of the watch, and I can set matching watch faces. So much fun to be able to take one watch and inexpensively give it so many looks.

I reserve 5 star rating for only outstanding products. I give this 4.5 stars, because the cheap packaging ruined the overall gestalt of receiving a watch that costs this much money.

My only issue though actually doesn’t have to do with the watch itself, but with the charger it came with. For some reason that charger was making the watch ridiculously hot. I had it charging for over 2 hours and not only was the watch incredibly hot, but the battery percentage only went up 2%. Thankfully the charger from my Apple Watch 3 is still in great shape so I swapped out the chargers and that did the trick. I just found it odd that the charger it came with is what was making the watch abnormally hot.

But seriously, I’m so glad I went this route as opposed to buying a brand new one and spending all that extra money. You would literally never even know this one is a refurb. I’ve only had it for a few days and already have received multiple compliments on it.

I was worried the color of the bezel would look too gold, however it does not. I purchased a separate stainless silver-link watch band, and a clear bezel protector. The bezel matches the band very well, it looks silver (I think it is actually a light tone gold, but blends well). The original band is nice too, I just wanted a more “dressy” look.

Edit: Seller is replacing the watch. Once received and worn for a period of time, I’ll update my review. The watches delivery is delayed for 7 days. So, updating the review may take longer than expected.

Edit #2: The watch was originally set to be delivered on the 3rd. Then, got pushed back to the 9th. Then, the 10th. Now, it’s pushed back to the 11th. So, I may have to ask for a refund and won’t be able to update. I’ve gotten all my Amazon orders and replacement orders way faster than this.

Edit #3: I finally got the watch on the 14th. The replacement watch looks good. No scratches. So, I’m moving from 1 star to 3 stars. 3 stars, because you shouldn’t send a broken watch. Also, when I reached out about the watch I got conflicting information from the seller each time. At one point they were going to refund me and saw the watch being delivered on the 11th. Then, when the watch didnt arrive on the 11th, I was told there was nothing they can do.

As you might expect, the customer service was not great either.
I will admit that I physically returned it a few weeks after- I was terribly busy and this apple watch that I was already promised a refund for was not at the top of my list of concerns. By the way- the deadline was in late December. I had returned it in the first third of the time they wanted it back. Fast-forward, and I see that they had charged me a “restocking fee” of HALF OF PRICE OF THE WATCH. I payed $270 for this “excellent condition” device only to be dealt a hole of $135 in the wallet. I was essentially paying to repair the watch, and for them to sell it to another poor soul. The cost to actually repair it is much cheaper by the way, and you could probably do a better job. Nowhere do they mention a restocking fee, especialIy not such a large one. I, obviously angry, had to control myself when talking to their customer service- which was hardly a service and more of an insult. I asked for a full refund in what one would consider polite given the circumstances. Here’s the kicker. They had the AUDACITY to claim that I, MYSELF, had broken it because it was not returned immediately after receival. Don’t be mistaken, they would likely come up with another excuse to only refund you half of your money even if you returned it earlier than myself. The apple watch was not used a single day after my initial complaint, yet the customer service had the incredible nerve to claim that it was my fault. They somehow believe that I had bought the watch, and planned to break and return it. They genuinely believe that somebody would buy the watch and report damage the day after so that they could use it for a month, THEN break it in the exact way as described, THEN return it. Not even a legitimate scammer would plan that- logically, its just not cost efficient, practical, or useful. The customer service was vague and almost condescending.

Just because they have some sort of Amazon Renewed Certification does not mean it will be anywhere close to “like new” or excellent folks. You would think that for a company selling the same items tagged in progressively ascending order of quality (They have the same watch at different prices for “good” “Very Good” and “Excellent”) would have an at least decent “Excellent” option. What an absolute joke and a horrible experience to ruin my week.

Just don’t risk it. Heads you get an overpriced used Apple Watch. Tails, you dig yourself a $135 hole.

Since I already had an Apple Watch charger, I’ve been using that one just for peace of mind—call it my little OCD moment! ????

Before purchasing, I read some reviews where people mentioned issues like the watch not turning on, poor battery life, or updates taking forever. I did notice it took a while to charge initially, but after that, everything went smoothly. The update and syncing process with my iPhone did take a bit of time, but that’s normal for Apple Watches (especially refurbished ones). For anyone wondering, remember that Apple Watches are not like iPhones—they have different battery performance expectations.

Speaking of the battery, mine arrived with 84% battery capacity. While that might seem a bit low, it’s within the typical range for a refurbished Apple Watch. For anyone who wants a new battery, Apple offers a replacement service for a fee. If you have AppleCare+ and your battery capacity drops below 80%, the replacement might even be free.

After using the watch for two days, I’m really impressed. It’s fast, responsive, and everything works perfectly. I’m a big Apple fan, so I had high hopes, and this purchase met my expectations.

When you buy something refurbished on Amazon, it’s always a bit of a gamble—but this time, it paid off! Highly recommend this if you’re looking for a reliable refurbished Apple Watch.

TLDR: I bought 3 of these watches that all had issues and now have to wait up to 30 days for a refund I may not receive. I am confident they are replacing the glass on these watches sub par and then making them no longer waterproof. Once they have water damage, they say they will not refund your money, despite Apple watches being “swim proof” according to the site. The watches said they were sold by “woot” but then the box instructions had a different seller.
I bought 3 of these watches for my kids about 10 days ago. From the start I had concerns because it seemed like they would not charge to 100% and set up was a little clunky. I also read previous reviews about the glass breaking easy, so I put screen protectors on them immediately. I have had an apple watch since they first came out, replacing them every 2-3 years, so I am have some experience of their capabilities and how they feel. In 10 years I have never once broken the glass on a watch and I do not wear screen protectors and I am your typical “klutz”. I agree with another reviewer that these watch glasses are not being replaced with apple quality glass but I am not an expert.
Here is the issue with each watch

This watch never charged higher than 94% despite the battery health being greater than 85%. I thought maybe it was the generic charger so I charged it with my apple watch charger. This did not fix the issue, and it would still never charge higher than 94% usually stopped around 91% even overnight. Within 5-6 hours of use we were getting low battery warnings despite using in low power mode all day.
I thought we were going to be able to keep this watch, everything seemed to be going well, it charged to 100%, the battery lasted about 10 hours. Then suddenly it appeared to not turn on and the screen started glitching on and off. There were no visible signs of damage to the screen or the watch. However, the screen always felt off and we would have issues with touching and typing on the watch. He did wear this in the shower.
This watch had similar issues to the first watch with battery and maintaining a charge. However, my son was in the shower and suddenly the watch kept making emergency calls over and over. So he gets out of the shower and I take off the screen protector and the glass is cracked, despite no damage at all to the screen protector (see photos). Similar to watch 2, something always felt “off “ about this screen as well.

We will see how this all plays out in the next 30 days and I may update my review more positively if the seller stands by their product. But for now, I cannot recommend anyone taking the risk on these 100% functional refurbished watches. I am waiting to leave seller feedback until I have a resolution.
