Black Friday is over, but the deals continue for Cyber Monday and Cyber Week. The “shopping holiday” has sort of morphed over the years into a weeks-long event. Apple typically holds a sale that lasts from Friday through Monday, but other retailers start Black Friday deals a week before the day itself and carry them through for days after.
If you’re looking to pick up an Apple Watch this holiday season, for yourself or as a gift, you might want to buy during that time. In 2020, there were quite a few deals on Apple Watch, especially if you weren’t concerned with buying the latest model. As the new Series 7 is such a small upgrade over the Series 6, buying last year’s model makes more sense than ever this year, if you can find one.
Cyber Monday Apple Watch deals – our top pick
Cyber Monday Apple Watch deals from Apple
Apple has a holiday shopping event that is live now and runs until Monday, November 29. While there aren’t any actual discounts being offered from Apple, if you buy an Apple Watch Series 3 or Apple Watch SE you’ll get a $50 gift card for a future purchase.
Apple Watch Series 7: Best Cyber Monday deals
While stock has been fluctuating since the launch of the newest Apple Watch in October, some stores have begun discounting the Apple Watch Series 7. There is a $20 discount at Costco on the Starlight color and Amazon has the red and green models for $20 off as well.

Apple Watch SE: Best Cyber Monday deals
Best Buy will give you $30 off the Apple Watch Series 3, but the much better deal is $60 off the Apple Watch SE. That brings the price down to $219, and it’s a real discount not a gift card. Best Buy also kicks in six months of Apple Fitness+, if you don’t already subscribe to it.
Amazon has the same deal, but you get 3 months of Apple Fitness+ (the standard with any new Apple Watch purchase).
Target has this deal as well, also with the standard 3 months of Apple Fitness+.

Apple Watch Series 3: Best Cyber Monday deals
Walmart was selling the Apple Watch Series 3 for just $109 ($139 for the larger 42mm size), though sadly it is now out of stock. We typically don’t recommend the Series 3 as it’s sort of an evolutionary dead-end for the Apple Watch. The smaller screen with with large bezels, the slower processor…there’s just no telling how much longer it’s going to get watchOS updates. But at that price, it can be a great stopgap to simply track some workouts or get started with Apple Fitness+ while you wait for a more capable Apple Watch in a year or two.
Apple Watch: Best Cyber Monday deals from carrier stores
If you’re interested in buying an Apple Watch with cellular access, and you’re okay activating it and probably being forced to buy on an installment plan, you can save a significant amount with a carrier deal. It’s a lot of “gotchas” but the discounts are steep.
Verizon: Get Apple Watch SE or Series 7 for $150 off if you buy it together with an iPhone.
AT&T: Buy any two Apple Watch models on an installment plan and get up to $330 off, as a monthly bill credit over 36 months.
T-Mobile: Apple Watch SE is only $99 when you add a qualifying line.
