We’ve already run through some incredible Black Friday deals to be had for the iPhone 7, but there are other products in Apple’s lineup that can be had for incredibly low prices this holiday shopping season. If you’ve been on the fence about picking up an Apple Watch or are perhaps contemplating upgrading to the Apple Watch Series 2, a number of retail outlets this year are holding really enticing deals for Apple’s increasingly popular wearable.

Even if you’re not in the market to purchase an Apple Watch for yourself, Apple’s wearable has the highest customer satisfaction ranking across the smartwatch industry, which is to say that it might make for a great gift for your tech-inclined friends and loved ones. And if you can pick up a brand new Apple Watch at a significant discount, all the better.

While most Apple Watch deals you’ll see this holiday season are for the original model, there are a pair of Apple Watch Series 2 deals that are worth highlighting. One, Kohl’s is offering customers who pick up the 38mm Apple Watch Series 2 in Space Gray Aluminum with the Black Sport Band $105 in Kohl’s cash. Two, Target is selling the 42mm Apple Watch Series 2 in Space Gray Aluminum with the Black Sport Band for $369, making it $30 cheaper than what you’ll find anywhere else.

As for deals on the original Apple Watch, the best deals we’ve come across come from Target, Best Buy and Kohl’s, though you’ll have to be content with the Rose Gold Aluminum model with the Pink Sand Sport Band. Target is selling the wearable for $198 (a $71 discount) while Best Buy is selling the same model for $219 (a $50 discount). Kohl’s, meanwhile, is offering users who pick up the Rose Gold model $75 in Kohl’s cash.

If Rose Gold with the Pink Sand Sport Band isn’t your thing, not to worry, there are still some solid Apple Watch deals to be had at Best Buy. The following 38mm Apple Watch Series 1 models can be purchased for $219, representing a $50 discount: Space Gray Aluminum with the Black Sport Band, Silver Aluminum with the White Sport Band and Gold Aluminum with the Concrete Sport Band.

Meanwhile, the following 42mm Apple Watch Series 1 models can be picked up at Best Buy for $249, also offering users $50 worth of savings: Gold Aluminum case with the Cocoa Sport band, Rose Gold Aluminum with the Midnight Blue Sport Band, Silver Aluminum with the White Sport Band and Space Gray Aluminum with the Black Sport Band.

The above deals go into effect at Target and Best Buy on November 24. Kohl’s Black Friday sale, meanwhile, goes live on November 21.

Should any more Apple Watch deals bubble up to the surface, we’ll definitely make sure to keep you in the loop.
