Refurbished Apple Watch Series 5 Available for £89 in Limited-Time Deal
A limited-time offer on Wowcher is offering refurbished Apple Watch Series 5 models starting at £89, providing a more affordable entry point into the Apple ecosystem.
The deal includes both 40mm models for £89 and 44mm versions from £129, both described as being in ‘good’ condition with “generous storage” and comprehensive health tracking features, including heart rate and ECG monitoring. The watches can reportedly recharge to 80% capacity in just 30 minutes. Orders redeemed by midday today will be delivered within 24 hours, according to Wowcher.
Key features of the Series 5 include an always-on Retina display, water resistance up to 50 meters, and compatibility with iPhones running iOS. While the watch lacks the newer health sensors found in later models – such as blood oxygen monitoring – and will eventually see decreasing compatibility with the latest software, it remains a viable option for basic fitness tracking and smart notifications. A 12-month warranty is included with each purchase. For those considering alternatives, Amazon is currently offering a discount on the Huawei Smartwatch Fit 3.
The availability of refurbished Apple Watches at significantly reduced prices reflects a growing trend towards sustainable tech consumption and provides access to premium devices for budget-conscious consumers. Wowcher states the watches are “designed for those who demand more from their wearable tech,” combining health tracking with smart functionality.
Wowcher representatives indicated the deal is expected to sell quickly due to high demand and limited stock.
