Apple Watch Series 11

My current Apple Series 9 watch was starting to require frequent recharges. It's battery health was at 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 the watch.


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.
