Apple fans know that the ecosystem of devices is one of the biggest advantages, but if you've held off adding the wearable from Cupertino, now may finally be the moment to pick it up.

The Apple Watch is the perfect companion to your iPhone and currently you can buy the Apple Watch SE 2 for just $169 at Amazon. That's $80 off the original price and the lowest it has ever been. 

Apple's 2nd gen Apple Watch SE uses the same S8 chip as the Apple Watch Series 8, and it shares many features too. It'll pair up seamlessly with other Apple devices, monitor your heart rate and daily steps, and features water resistance up to 50 meters. 

The Apple Watch will inspire you to move more throughout the day, provide helpful GPS info during a run, and quickly view and control your notifications.

Don't wait, like many of the Prime Day deals, it's going to be gone soon as the sale officially ends today, July 17.
