If you use one of the phone companies already then you may be able to get a bit of a lower price with one of them, otherwise either an Apple authorised reseller or the Apple online shop will be the wasy to go. The last question “which will pair watch with Iphone?” I don’t understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pairing with your iPhone is a function of the Apple Watch so where you get it from is irrelevant, the ability to share a number is a function of the watch but may need the provider of service for your iPhone to assist, again it doesn’t matter if you got it from them or not. My iPad has the same number as my iPhone however it requires an add on package with AIS (my phone company) that includes 2Mb of extra data for ฿100, I got it from Apple directly and the AIS store programmed the sim. It is quite likely that the Apple Watch uses the same system but as it’s one of the few Apple products I don’t have I don’t know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcmj Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 I was going to get one, but as soon as they announced earlier this month that they will no longer be making watches I pulled out. Who knows when the service will stop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tongjaw Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 My advice would be to buy a Garmin watch instead. Can pair with your phone and better battery life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I charge my Apple watch every third day and is wearing it 24/7 except for a few charging hours, thats enough battery life for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows when the service will stop. Apple has not said they will discontinue making watches. So your post makes no sense. They are dropping older models as is usually the case, but the watches continue. Edited October 25, 2023 by sometimewoodworker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcmj Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Sorry. Not All models. Apple also still sells the Apple Watch SE from 2022. With the arrival of the two new Apple Watches, Apple discontinued the Apple Watch Series 3, 8 and the original Apple Watch Ultra, however, you may still be able to buy those older Apple Watch models from resellers and from Apple's Refurbished Store.

observer90210 Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 If possible, I would buy at the Apple Store at Siam or Central in Bangkok. Sure mail order is fine. But depending on one's District or Province, the carrier used, it just never may arrive. Not rich enough to chance an undelivery for an Apple product paid online.
