Apple Watch Ultra 3
For an ultra-rugged timepiece, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is reasonably stylish as well.

While the latest quarterly smartwatch sales report put together by Counterpoint Research didn't go into any detail regarding the world's most popular models, it seems relatively safe to assume that the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is doing well among fans of rugged timepieces.

That's not just based on our glowing review of Cupertino's newest outdoor-friendly wearable, but also how hard it is to find the device at a substantial discount, even compared to the (presumably) similarly successful Apple Watch Series 11.

While Apple's latest "mainstream" high-end smartwatch is sold by retailers like Amazon at $100 under its $400 list price essentially more often than not nowadays, the Series 11's more robust and expensive sibling is marked down by a Benjamin from a whopping $799 for the first time in several months.

The previous such Apple Watch Ultra 3 deal was itself a rarity, and even though Amazon's Prime Day 2026 sales event is right around the corner, I believe there's a good possibility this new offer will go away before long. That's because there's only one version with a black titanium case and a one-size black ocean band available for 100 bucks less than usual on Amazon (with no special requirements), which typically signals low inventory or a limited timeframe.

Could the same discount be offered again next week? Absolutely, but if you're not a Prime member and don't want to become one just to save $100 on one of the best smartwatches money can buy in 2026, it might be a good idea to pull the trigger today.


And yes, I know (as you do) that a presumably improved Apple Watch Ultra 4 is (probably) only a few months away. But I wouldn't rule out that product's retail price going up to $899 and staying around that mark for several months after that. Besides, there's obviously no guarantee its upgrades will be very significant.

After all, the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is already an absolute powerhouse, a battery life champion, and an unrivaled satellite communicator, so even if the Ultra 4 were to come with, say, a larger screen and/or thinner profile, you will not regret "settling" for its predecessor... as long as you score a nice little discount in the process.
