From the flagship Series 10 and Ultra 2 to the affordable SE, every watch at Phonebot is professionally restored, tested, and backed by warranty.

Why Buying Refurbished Makes Sense in 2025

Buying refurbished doesn’t mean compromising quality; it means spending smarter. New Apple Watches often retail between A$499 and A$899, but refurbished models give you identical performance and software support for much less. Each unit is factory reset, sanitized, and checked for battery health before resale.

You’ll still enjoy:

• Full compatibility with the latest watchOS 10
• Seamless pairing with iPhones running iOS 17 or later
• Access to Apple’s core features like ECG, heart-rate tracking, and activity rings

Choosing refurbished helps you save money and support sustainability by extending the lifespan of existing tech and reducing e-waste.
