Apple Watch Series 11

My current Apple Series 9 watch was starting to require frequent recharges. Its battery health was 84% (after 2.5 years of use), and it was dying after recording a wing-foiling session. Since I also used the watch to lock/unlock my Tesla during wing-foiling sessions, I needed to be able to count on it.

Since replacing the existing Series 9 battery would cost $90, I decided to upgrade to the Apple Series 11 watch instead. The Apple Watch Series 11 46mm was on sale on Amazon for $329. I could trade in my current Series 9 watch for $120.
