Apple Watch 38mm (1st gen) - User Reviews

  • I wouldn't mind a 1st gen. Although I'm surprised by how much it's depreciated over 4 years.

  • Bought this model with the midnight blue modern buckle for € 210. I personally think it was a great deal, waiting for it to be shipped.

  • according to a mannual its water resistant and i suppose apple wont be responsible for the potential damage however its still resistant

  • yes...

  • is this a waterproof watch?

  • Really great...... Would be nice in the next update to have a feature of sending a new e-mail and having safari on it... Otherwise I love not missing anymore notifications...

  • yes ofcourse

  • nice watch
