Series 2 - Hot!!!! Use mine daily for tracking runs with Strava without the hassle of carrying a phone!

Yeah, my first deal on here, nice to contribute when I've saved so much over the years

no **** everything's cash related, they're a business

cracking deal compared to the normal selling price

the added 2 year accidental cover is £25 but has no excess so seems a good deal for once too

Yeah, my first deal on here, nice to contribute when I've saved so much over the years

Heat added but make sure to say when gen it is next time :smiley:

Aargh tried to flag this up with the mods by reporting and my phone messed up and did a bunch of things and cut off my sentence. Mods if you see this, please add gen :smiley:

Tempted, but after seeing reviews Watch is over priced ,over hyped and people end up butting it at the back of there draws after a few weeks...

Apple sucks. Everything is cash related. Poor people beware... NEVER HEAT ADDED.. :disappointed:

Series 2 - Hot!!!! Use mine daily for tracking runs with Strava without the hassle of carrying a phone!

spotted this earlier today, no stock at my local tho so had to buy online, 20 quidco reward coins for buying online

Thanks just what I was looking for first Xmas present sorted

£70 off is a decent deal for a Series 2 model. Been wanting one for ages.

Hot for the price. Cold for the strap.

Excellent watch if this is the series 2. II use mine for my swimming. It's the only smart watch/tracker that accurately records your workout.

I doubt it. Gen 1 released march 15 and gen 2 released September 16. If apple follows the same pattern we should expect a new one in mar 18.

I'll put £50 on it that there won't be

I was looking to get the 38mm one but it's the same price as the 42mm. Seems a but weirded but heat for the 42mm watch at that price! :smiley:

Agreed , they probably can't afford one so are spouting jealous anecdotal nonsense instead :laughing:

I assume you change the strap?

Can someone confirm this is a series2 watch please?

I love my apple watch. I loved my previous watches (garmin vivosmart and a Fossil pretty one ) but since getting the 2 in February, the other ones havent been worn. Brilliant bit of kit! Worth every penny.

Has anyone owned this second gen model and used it for swimming as that is one of the reasons i'd like to get one.

Is it just the appearance that is different to the other series 2 watches or is there any functional difference?

Shame its not the space grey version.

Looks like apple have changed some straps as Nike+ only comes with a plan black or plane white strap now.

Good price for Series 2! Picked up Series 1 for £199 a couple of months ago. Heat added.

Just as easy to get your phone out of your pocket and read it on a bigger screen. Saving yourself ££££££

Sorry, thanks for the reply. This is all information I know and am aware of. My question was perhaps poorly worded. I was looking for some first hand feedback from people have used it for swimming regularly and I was wondering if it is recommended by swimmers or if people have had any problems with it.

So what is it the Garmin does so much better than the Apple Watch? The fitness info the AW gives for swimming is just exactly what I want as I am not interested in any other info and it's hard to think what other info can be given in any case. I am also not talking just about fitness here but the overall package with all the other features the AW gives you when integrated with the IPhone. Can the Garmin beat the overall package? I sincerely doubt it.

I have had one for a couple of months and used it about 10 times for swimming doing about 2500m each time. It's very accurate but you have to remember to set the pool size before you start your swim or you can get inaccurate results. You can see a running progress while you are swimming as well which helps you know how many lengths you've done. I have had no problems with it at all but it's recommended that you don't take it into the shower after your swim and get soap or shampoo on it as that can damage the waterproof seals over time.

It's also very secure in your wrist while swimming and the only real worry I have is that I smack the watch on one of the hard plastic discs on the lane ropes and damage it. I'd definitely recommend it for swimming.

you can get notifications on the Garmin, but its bad in comparison to AW. The fitness metrics are a lot better and it is more accurate. Running with both an AW and Garmin, the Garmin has been closer to a IAAF measured course than the AW, the AW was 1/10 a mile out! Then there is battery life, I doubt the AW would last a Marathon with constant GPS and Heart Rate, it will also last a week with 5 training sessions, the AW needs charging every night.

The AW is good for what it does, its just not a serious fitness watch.

Yeah it's easier to look at your watch and finding out you have a notification/message but your next action is to look at your phone to read it in full or to reply. And all the other things you said your phone does apart from heart rate. I carry my phone with me most of the time, so pointless for me.

That statement says more about you than it does him.

Good deal got one. I need a watch for cycling commuting that is usable in terms of reading messages etc.

Excellent deal.
Just ignore negative comments by usual stupid Apple haters and buy it if you like/need an smart watch.

First of all it's a myth that the AW 2 needs charging every night. I think you are getting mixed up with the original AW as the battery has much improved since the original watch. My AW 2's last charge was 2days and 21hrs ago with 5hrs usage and it still has 25% of the battery left. That's with 3 swimming sessions, notifications and the HR monitor taking a reading every 15m. It also only takes an hour or so to charge which you do overnight as who wears their watch to bed anyway.

I have seen a Garmin in action as my Mrs has a Fenix 5 because she does a lot of running and cross country etc. It is really good and has got a lot of data on it for runners so I can see why a serious runner would like it but it's also a watch that's £100 more retail than the AW and £180 more than this deal. Garmins seem to be a watch more suited for runners than anything else and you'd really have to be ultra serious to get one as 90% of the population don't need half the information it produces.

It's all down to overall value in the end and for most the overall package of the AW will win.

Fair enough, maybe it's because I'm a techie, need the latest and greatest. Hope he enjoys it.

well this has me tempted

Nice deal but with ain't series 3 due sept/oct?

Ordered.
The Nike band looks dope.

So has everyone got a iwatch at your workplace? And are you that easy to be replaced? Cost of recruiting/ training someone else up. Sound like everyone else uses there phone and your just trying to justify something you didn't really need.

Need some good deals in the 37mm watch bands !!

first get it's name right,there is nothing called iwatch.
it's called Apple Watch.

Type iwatch in Amazon and what comes up? Apple Watch. You might want to use your phone for that.

It is called Apple Watch not iwatch.
Is it really that complicated?

Good one, not going to answer the other questions then. Just that it's called a Apple Watch.

I got a Series 2 last year and have used it for around 1-2 swims each week since then. It is brilliant, works flawlessly. Just, erm, don't hang it up on a hook in the shower so that you then knock it off and smash it on the tiled floor, cos that sucks. Cue expensive repair! I'd recommend the watch though.

Crazy price, cold.

Worth every penny this iwatch

Had a £200 reward card from BT, was debating putting it towards a S2 or the next iPhone. Had made my decision until this came up, damn!

I do wonder why these are down as a reduce to clear, possible new model on the way? Or could Apple be discontinuing the Nike versions

Always wanted an iWatch. Does it integrate with Google Fit?

Type your name on google image search what comes up? are those all your pictures?
some people assumed it would be called iwatch BEFORE it was launched,but it wasn't.
and that was over 2 years ago.
time to get up to date.

All gone.
Out of stock.

The grey/white band variant (flat silver/white) still available for £349.

Agreed, my watch lasts me full 48 hours, say I charged it this morning and on Tuesday morning it will still have around 10% left. Also it only takes around 60 minutes to charge anyway and possibly less so you can do it before work in the morning easily.

Thanks OP,It was a great deal and many people enjoyed this offer and bought this great Apple Watch using the healthy discount of £70.

Though as usual,a few others were busy eating themselves up with jealousy or arguing about the obvious things such the name of the product :smile:
It was fun.:sunglasses:

These iwatch went like hot cakes

Maybe, but then I'm not the type to visit threads of desirable items and spout anecdotal nonsense without ever using or owning said item.

There's quite a few people actually have one tbh along with the various other android watches.

Had mine since launch and wear in daily, activity tracking is awesome, regularly use for running, cycling and swimming plus heart rate monitoring and daily fitness goals are winners.

There are currently 6 back in stock!
