Re: Cellular Apple Watch recommendations

I have the Apple Watch SE, which is the entry level if you like, but it's absolutely superb. If I can recommend getting one from anywhere, John Lewis always throw in a 2 year warranty on Apple tech, which I've used once for some AirPods behaving a bit strangely, and the service is great.

That first 4 months is core rules. You won't become fully qualified until at least a year and a half to two years in.
