If you are looking for an Apple Watch and you have not yet decided on its price, or if you have doubts about which model to buy, you cannot fail to see the excellent offer that you can find in Amazon With which you can get an original Apple Watch with the steel case and sapphire crystal for only € 369 in its 42mm size. It is a product that benefits from the advantages of the Premium account and that you can have it at home in 24 hours, ideal if you still do not have the gift for Valentine's Day. Is it worth buying this model when there are already more current ones? It is undoubtedly an offer that must be taken into account but in which it is necessary to assess pros and cons, and I will tell you the reasons.
Top model
It is the 42mm Apple Watch in steel and sapphire crystal. It is the superior model that at its launch cost almost double what this offer marks, and that right now is only available in the Series 2 (not in the Series 1) for € 719. It is true that this model does not have GPS, it is not waterproof according to Apple (although the tests that we have all carried out say otherwise) and that its processor is not as fast or powerful as that of current generations, but it is all an Apple Watch with an exceptional bright steel finish and a sapphire crystal that resists scratches much better than the ion-X in the Sport model.
If we want to buy a current Apple Watch, always taking into account only the 42mm model, we can do it from the € 369 that the Series 1 Sport (aluminum) costs, and if we want the best of the best (but I insist again, in aluminum ) we must go up to € 469 for the Series 2 Sport model. That is, for the same price that this steel and sapphire Apple Watch costs in Amazon we will get a Sport model that only has a more powerful processor.
Almost identical in software
At the moment with watchOS 3 there are no differences at the software level with respect to the current Apple Watch models and compared to this older model. Only the function of seeing the time without having to turn the wrist by means of a slight twist of the crown currently differentiates the software of both models. Maybe with watchOS 4, which is expected to arrive next September, these differences will increase, that is true.
But less autonomy
Perhaps the most important thing when evaluating whether to buy this original steel model or one of the new ones is autonomy, because in this there is a big difference. The original Apple Watch perfectly endures the day but you will have to charge it every night when you go to bed so that the next day it can also endure without problems. The new models do last perfectly for 2 days of use, being able to charge them every other night. Is this a problem for you? So discard this original model.
Conclusion: an excellent opportunity
If you are looking for an integrated GPS, you need it to be submersible to practice water sports with it, or for you the autonomy of a single day is a serious problem, then this offer of Amazon, no matter how good it is, better let it go. But if all this is not the slightest problem for you, then it is worth taking a look at it. The steel and sapphire Apple Watch is a "premium" model that falls in love from the first moment and at this price it is really very tempting.
