Finally we are getting a price tag that is appropriate for a smart watch...

I wouldn't consider a smartwatch an asset in first place... Once you start using it, write off the purchase price immediately and don't expect to regain anything from it. If you do, nice, but don't expect it.
I treat my stuff with almost maximum possible care, but the watch... that's considered a wear & tear item. If used as intended (including submerging during swimming), wearing during other sports/activites,... there's a significant risk of damage or failure.

So true.
The only time might be Black Friday at an Apple store.

$35 Gift card last year. But probably on the S3 and not the SE.

Come over to UK if you don’t like sales.

My wife would love to move there. Don't temp me! 😂

I’d wait till Black Friday at this point. It’s not completely out of the question that the SE could be slashed by $100, which is literally less than a few weeks away.

I hope that happens. I would like to get one for my brother for Christmas. He currently has my old SS series 3.

Still waiting for a multi-day battery watch. Will pass this too.

Geeez, I read discontinued for a second.

It is the company's transition to services, they need volume sales to drive user base up.

They will not do these flash sales themselves so they use authorized sales partners like Amazon BestBuy, Walmart, etc. to do it.

And quite frankly I think it is working, $230 is a good price for the leading wearable device on the market... then this person is likely to bump up iCloud storage, subscribe to Music or to their fitness service, all triggered by owning the hardware.

LOL, yeah right....
