Prime Day is happening on July 16 and 17, but we're already seeing plenty of early Prime Day deals, including rare sales on Apple products. The Apple Watch Series 9 is one of the best smartwatches available at the moment, especially if you've already got an iPhone. Right now at Amazon you can save $100, bringing the price down considerably, and there are many configurations on sale. 

The Apple Watch Series 9 45mm GPS in starlight is regularly priced at $429 and is currently down to just $329. Or opt for the 41mm GPS at $299, a $100 savings on the regular price of $399. Discounts vary across sizes, colors and configurations, but we're seeing a steady $100 on most, though not all, variants.

The Apple Watch Series 9 was released in fall 2023 and features the latest S9 chipset, the first meaningful processor change since the Apple Watch Series 6, improving the speed and power efficiency. The device also features a new Double Tap gesture that opens up some one-handed use possibilities, while also being the first model to include on-device Siri commands. Ultra Wideband capabilities and a brighter display are also on board.

Apple Watch wearers have access to a bevy of health and fitness tracking capabilities, plus an App Store full of apps for streaming audio, communicating with friends and even playing games. And with Apple Pay support you can make payments on the go even if you don't have your wallet or iPhone with you.

We don't have a specified end date for these Apple Watch savings, but since Prime Day lasts for only two days, don't wait too long to grab this deal. And if you're looking for other Apple products, we've rounded up the best Apple deals ahead of Prime Day. We're keeping a close eye on Prime Day deals to make sure you get the latest pricing and best available offers.
