Frequently Asked Questions

  • Apple Watch straps are available in a variety of styles and sizes.

    First, you’ll need to choose a case size and strap style to see which strap sizes are available with that combination. The strap you choose will specify the maximum and minimum wrist size. To get the correct strap size, we recommend that you precisely measure around your wrist.

    If you choose an Apple Watch with a Sport Band, first select your case size then select your strap size. Sport Bands only come with one size in the box.

    If you choose a Solo Loop or Braided Solo Loop strap, you’ll need to use the sizing guide to find your exact size. Our sizing for these straps has changed, so please use the updated sizing guide even if you’ve purchased one in the past. When you shop for Solo Loop straps, there are step-by-step instructions to help you measure your wrist using a printable tool or household objects so you can find the correct size.

  • The GPS + Cellular model allows you to stay connected to the people and information you care about with just your Apple Watch. With a data plan you can send and receive text messages, answer phone calls, receive notifications, and stream Apple Music and Apple Podcasts without needing your iPhone nearby.

    With the GPS model, you must be connected to your iPhone via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to send and receive text messages, answer phone calls and receive notifications. The built-in GPS works independently of your iPhone for distance, pace and route mapping in workouts.

  • Apple Trade In makes it easy to get credit toward the purchase of your next Apple Watch. Simply answer a few questions about your device. Based on what you tell us, we’ll provide an estimated trade-in value. If you pay monthly, we’ll apply the value as an instant credit to lower the monthly payments of your new Apple Watch. If you pay in full, we’ll credit your payment method after we receive your trade-in. If it’s not eligible for credit, you can recycle it for free.

    Once you accept the estimated trade-in value quote, we’ll send you a free trade-in kit. When we receive your trade-in, we’ll verify its condition, and if everything checks out, your trade-in will be complete. If your device doesn’t match the condition you described, you’ll receive an email with next steps. If you paid in full and the value of your device was more than the cost of your new Apple Watch, you’ll receive an Apple Gift Card by email with the remaining amount.

    The online trade-in process generally takes 2-3 weeks.

    You can also trade your device in at an Apple Store at the point of purchase, however the trade-in value in store may be different from the estimated trade-in value you received online.
