Apple Watch Series 3

Amazon is offering the 38mm GPS Apple Watch Series 3 for just $119.99, down from $179.00. You can also get the 42mm GPS model from Amazon, down from $209.00. Both of these sales represent the lowest prices we've ever seen for the Apple Watch Series 3, and the 2017 model of the Apple Watch makes a solid holiday gift for someone looking to get into Apple's wearable family.

They keep saying these will be in stock at a certain time and when that time comes and I put it in my cart they say out of stock. Don’t advertise an item you don’t have enough to sell. (I am talking about Walmart and the Series 3 AW).

Update: They're playing some kind of game. Every 15 minutes they'll say it's back in stock for a split second. I was able to get 2 of them because I acted lightning fast. When I went back 30 seconds later it says it's out of stock for another 15 minutes.

Yeah I was going to buy today or tomorrow, figured the deal would last through Friday.
 
Honestly, if somebody want to just basic functionality without the latest health sensors, and wasn’t overly concerned with future watchOS updates, the Series 3 at $119 is actually a pretty good price. Even when the watchOS updates are no longer offered, that watch will still perform perfectly fine.

amazon really heavily discounting the new apple watch. bought mine through target with their sale but got it price matched so thank you amazon!
 
Except that the 398 price for the series 6 40mm cellular on Amazon is only for the red color.

you'd think, right? i'm kinda hoping it might drop again. you know, after black friday there's cyber monday and all... i've been on the fence about getting one of these watches, but as i'm in florida for the winter i think it might be super useful for going into the ocean, yet being able to monitor what's going on life/workwise)

I’m still seeing the Watch S3 at $179 (38mm) and $214 (42mm) on Amazon. I asked my local Best Buy and Target stores if they could price match Walmart’s deal and they won’t do it, per company policy of not price matching the week-of, or day before Black Friday or so they said.

Plus, some of those stores actually require the model to be in stock physically in store in order for it to be ‘priced matched’. It can’t just be price matched from online competitors, at least I believe thats how Walmart does it, Target will price match both online and in store, but the item has to be in stock in that exact color configuration/model.
