Apple Watch Series 5 (GPS + Cellular, 40MM) - Gold Stainless Steel Case with Stone Sport Band (Renewed)

This renewed Apple Watch Series 5 exceeded my expectations. The watch arrived in very good condition with only minimal signs of prior use. I particularly like the stainless steel case, which gives it a more upscale appearance than the standard aluminum versions. Performance remains smooth for everyday tasks, and the always-on display is still a standout feature. Cellular capability is a nice bonus when I want to leave my phone behind during walks or workouts. If you’re looking for an affordable entry into the Apple Watch ecosystem, this is a solid option.

I was really excited to receive this Apple Watch, but unfortunately, my experience has been disappointing. First, I received the wrong band color — I ordered “stone” color , but got the pink instead. Even more concerning, the watch doesn’t turn on at all. I followed all setup instructions, tried charging it with different chargers and outlets but it still won’t power on. For a premium product like this, I expected better quality control. I’m currently in the process of returning it, but wanted to share my experience in case others run into similar issues. Very frustrating and not what I expected from a product listed as “excellent”

Worth the purchase holding charge well and completely looks like new

lasted a year and a half. Swam with it once and it died.

Very good condition, no visible defects. Battery life is very poor. Used it very little and after charging all night got to 50% by noon. Charged it for 2 hours and used it for 15 minutes just scrolling to get used to it ( had a Samsung Galaxy watch previously) and watch was at 28%

I bought my Series 5 Apple watch primarily for the Fall Detection feature. I searched until I found a renewed stainless steel (sapphire crystal) version in gold. There were a few very minor nicks in the case, the crystal is perfect. It works great. Battery health was 86. The only glitch is that it was sent with a Samsung charger that caused my watch to heat up while charging. I ordered a Apple certified charger and since then have had no trouble. The vendor made it right, so I have no complaints.

The watch I received doesn’t stay charged more than 5 hours. Battery health was extremely low, even though I purchased one in “excellent condition” the wrong band was sent. I was going to look past that but the watch didn’t stay charged all day. I initiated a return but have to wait 3 days with the package sitting on my front porch for UPS to pick up. (This was the only return option!) I had to go to the local ups store to print the return sheet to place inside the box. (Costing me an additional $4 to print) and I couldn’t even leave the box there. It’s not safe to leave an Apple Watch on the front porch outside for 3 days waiting for a pick up. Then possibly wait up to 30 days for a refund. The whole process with this seller is not worth buying from again.

For being refurbished it didn’t come with good battery health. Dies pretty quickly even with settings switched to retain battery as much through the day as possible. Still dies before dinner.
