We all know what the Apple Watch is — pretty much the best smartwatch on the market. But the cost of the watch is a problem, particularly with the latest generation models, which cost hundreds of dollars each. Thank goodness for October Prime Day then, which gives you a massive saving of $250 on the Apple Watch Series 9.

The Apple Watch Series 9 is currently available on Amazon for $358, a mega saving of 24% on the list price. It’s one of many bargains in Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, which runs across Oct. 8 and 9.

This version of the Apple Watch is powered by the S9 chip. It delivers a brilliantly bright and clear display along with powerful health and fitness features. These include advanced heart rate and sleep tracking, plus ECG reports and a workout app. You can interact with the watch through voice control, while it offers support for calls, texts, music, and apps.

The Apple Watch Series 9 is usually priced at $478 and this version also comes with Apple Care+, which is invaluable if there’s ever a technical issue. You’ll also receive three months of Apple Fitness+ for free.
