Forget Black Friday - we've just spotted an incredible deal on the Apple Watch that we don't expect will stick around for long. Amazon has the best-selling Series 8 smartwatch on sale for $224.99 (was $399). You just need to apply the coupon to save an additional $74.01 - you'll then see a total savings of $174 at checkout. That's the lowest price we've ever seen for the Apple Watch 8, and it's $55 less than the previous record low at the July Prime Day sale.

The Apple Watch 8 is a top seller during holiday sales like Black Friday and Amazon Prime Day because it's one of the best smartwatches you can buy. It's packed with health features, including a temperature sensor, an ECG function, sleep tracking, and safety features such as crash and fall detection. You also get all the fantastic features people love about the Apple Watch, including the always-on display, all-day battery life, and the ability to text, make calls, and stream music directly from your wrist.

While the October Amazon Prime Day sale is scheduled for next week, and we have the official Black Friday deals event in November, today's price on the Apple Watch 8 is an incredible offer, and we don't expect you'll find a better deal anytime soon. If you want a fantastic feature-packed smartwatch at a record-low price, we recommend grabbing this early Black Friday deal before it's too late.
