Prime Day is now over, and you've missed the vast majority of the Apple Watch deals that we saw - however, in the UK, a few more linger on.

Below, we've listed the last few deals that haven't totally sold out yet, but we've also listed all the discounts that we saw over the entire Prime Day, so you can see what you missed out on (and plan ahead for Black Friday 2022)

We saw some fine discounts, including price cuts on the latest Apple Watch 7, along with offers on the Apple Watch 6 and the great-value Apple Watch SE. For those looking for a really affordable model, there were also some low prices on the Apple Watch Series 4 and Series 5.

How long will Amazon Prime Day Apple Watch deals last? 

Amazon has announced that Prime Day will take place on July 12 and 13, so that's when we expect to see this year's Apple Watch deals. Although plenty of early deals cropped up this year, we don't often see deals extending beyond midnight July 13.

Obviously, nothing is guaranteed at this point, but if you're after a cheap Apple Watch, we'd be looking at hitting the buy button today or tomorrow. The smartwatch is regularly discounted repeatedly during major sales events, so there's a good chance it'll be slashed lower towards the end of the deals period. However, nothing is certain, and if you spot a great deal within budget, it's a good idea to take it. 

We'll keep our eyes peeled for offers at retailers outside of Amazon, too, as more recently other stores have run their own sales events to take advantage of the increased spending during Prime Day. That's where some of the better deals may be hiding this year.

Do you need Amazon Prime to buy Prime Day Apple Watch deals?

Prime Day Apple Watch deals do require a Prime membership, however the good news if you're not already subscribed is that Amazon usually offers a free trial in the run up to its sales event. That means you'll be able to sample the delights of Amazon Prime and make the most of these excellent offers without having to fork out for a subscription. 

That said, you'll find regular Amazon Prime free trials available throughout the year - though remember picking one up now may exclude you from future offers later on. 

Plus, as we saw last year, other online retailers are putting up more of a fight these days. That means other stores will likely be price matching Amazon on its Prime Day Apple Watch deals, so you may well find the same (or better) offers elsewhere as well.

Amazon is currently offering a 30 day free trial of its Prime service. You'll get access to a wide range of membership services while also enjoying fast, free shipping across the site. If you're looking to time your free trial with Prime Day, however, you're a little early - and as you won't be a new customer in the summer if you grab this now, you might be excluded from future free trials.

What to expect during Prime Day Apple Watch deals this year

Last year the biggest Prime Day Apple Watch deals were found on the older Series 3 model. However, we were seeing some record low prices dropping all the way down to $169 in the US and £195 in the UK. 

Aside from a $15 saving on the Series 6 in the US, we didn't see any more Prime Day Apple Watch deals up for grabs last year. That's fairly understandable, considering the latest generation was only a month old at the time, and Apple devices like this rarely see bigger discounts so soon after launch. 

That said, we've already seen the price of the SE drop down to $229 in the US with a £60 discount in the UK as well. Plus, the Series 6 was down to just $329 last November, with the UK seeing a £299 sales price since then as well. That means there's definitely movement on those prices.
