Have decided that I probably will go for an 8. (SE doesn't have ECG which I want.)

But looking for the best price in the UK. Any suggestions from trustworthy sources?

Would be happy to go for an Apple refurb - but they only go as far as 7s at the moment. Are refurb 8s likely at any point before the 9?

They had the red 45mm gps one at Costco for £349 a few weeks ago. Cheapest I’ve seen it so far

Thank you! I checked them fairly recently and the price wasn't anything like that!

Must keep checking them.

Currently £399.99 for 41mm and £424.99 for 45mm (and I'd want the 45mm GPS - not cellular). Very similar to Amazon prices.

Definitely worth using HotUkDeals, but also put a price alert on the 3 Camels as they give you notifications on amazon price drops which can be worth it if you are looking for best price (which may give you the 5 month amazon payments interest free if that's of any use).

Appreciated. I've used the camels before but not in a while.

Credit is not an issue - but could be useful for someone.

Back to £349 if you can stomach the red!

Thank you!

At one point I thought the red might be nice. But I keep changing my mind!

I've got an inexpensive strap I'd use instead of the red band - which makes it too, too much. But am stuck unable to decide. :) Currently thinking I'd rather go for Midnight.
 
Might be a stretch to get the midnight at this price just now, maybe there are upcoming Easter deals?

With the red you can tone down with a black strap but other band options are limited of course.

It's too garish for me personally other than a sports only option.

You are probably right. I'm just at the point where is a good price on a Midnight comes up, I'll get it. But the AW 9 creeps ever closer and part of me also considers deferring till then - even if I have to pay full price!

When  WATCH 9 drops, they’re going to discontinue the 8 series, chances of finding refurbs and good deals after that is definitely higher.

Wait for the 9 I would, what do you have now?

Nothing!

I had a very inexpensive Mi-band which provided some interest. So inexpensive it fell off in the sea - bye bye! But I am more wanting heart rate and ECG now for various reasons. And have decided I'd rather be in the Apple camp than the alternatives.
 
Well - after much changing of mind, I decided to get from John Lewis as no trustworthy supplier offered a better price in an acceptable colour (which I ended up deciding was silver). And still cheaper than Apple themselves.

I'd already got a cheapo Milanese-style strap - which looks quite good with it.
