Which Apple Watch would you buy given the discounts?

Looking to buy an Apple Watch. Generally I wait til the new one is released, but it just doesn’t sound like the series 8 will have many updates and I was thinking I’d rather have the available discounts. Plus, my series 4 broke and I don’t want to wait the month+ to upgrade.

I thought it would be an opportunity to buy a SS model, but then even the discounts are still double the aluminum price.

Curious what the majority of people would do on here.

If you think the SS models will drop more – where do you see those discounts? I’ve never seen a new SS model for less than $500 from a reputable seller for the most recent or one year removed series.

FYI: I have upgraded right away in the past when the series 4 model was released and held onto it. My aluminum model has been just torn up by scratches and that bothers me. I had a SS series 0 model and that held up beautifully. But I’ve not been able to find a price of a ss model that I’m willing to jump on and stick with.

I purchased a SS series 7 for $599 and used it a couple days and had to return it because I just couldn’t get over the fact that I could buy two GPS models for less than the SS model that doesn’t DO anything different besides be pretty.

Thoughts?
