Apple Watch Series 3 trade-in FAQs

How much will Apple UK give me for my Apple Watch Series 3?

Apple UK doesn’t currently give trade-in credit for the Apple Watch Series 3. It will recycle it for free.

How do I find my exact Apple Watch model?

On your iPhone, open the Watch app, then General → About to see the model and serial number.

What if my device is damaged?

Apple asks a few questions about damage and lowers the value, or offers free recycling instead. HowMuchMac asks you Apple’s own questions and shows the exact figure.

Is Apple’s trade-in value the best price?

Apple’s value is paid as credit toward Apple products or an Apple Gift Card. Selling for cash through a buyback service such as Back Market can pay more, so it’s worth comparing both.
