Amazon has Apple Watch Ultra 3 down at $780, but Best Buy’s open-box listing is $98 off

Amazon is still offering some light $20 price drops on a range of the brand new Apple Watch Ultra 3 configurations in brand new condition. But we just spotted a notable chance to save as much as $98 on the new Apple Watch Ultra 3 with the Natural Titanium case and the Anchor Blue Ocean Band courtesy of Best Buy. 

As any avid 9to5Toys reader will already know when it comes to the lowest prices on brand new, big ticket tech releases, Best Buy’s open-box program is one of, if not, the best options in town. It will often offer up a better than refurbished quality units at the lowest price around before there are even refurbished deals to be found. This is exactly what we have here today at Apple Watch Ultra 3. 

You will now find the Apple Watch Ultra 3 with the Natural Titanium case and the Anchor Blue Ocean Band in “excellent” condition down at $700.99 shipped. That’s $98 less than buying one brand new at Apple and $79 under the brand new price at Amazon right now. While that might not be enough to go open-box when you’re already spending $700+ on Apple’s latest and greatest, a deal is a deal and this is the lowest price we can find. 

Here are some details on Best Buy’s open-box listing here – it also ships with a proper 1-year Apple warranty as well:

• Geek Squad Verified
• Works and looks like new. Restored to factory settings.
• Includes all parts and accessories. Packaging may vary or be absent.

Again it might not seem like a giant discount or anything, but if you’re going to be grabbing a new Ultra without green to trade-in against one, there’s really no sense in paying full price at Apple when Amazon has them for less. And if you’re looking for the lowest possible price, Best Buy’s open-box offers are worth a look.
