Apple Watch Ultra 2 With Black Titanium is Now Available Refurbished

Alongside the Mac Studio with M4 Max and M3 Ultra chips, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 with a Black Titanium case was also added to Apple's online refurbished store in the U.S. today, for the first time since it was released in September 2024.

The refurbished model costs $679, down from $799 new. It comes with a Black Ocean Band.

Beyond the different case color, the Black Titanium model is the same as the other Apple Watch Ultra 2 models, which first launched in September 2023. Due to Apple's legal battle with medical technology company Masimo, the Blood Oxygen app remains deactivated in the U.S. on all new and refurbished Apple Watch Ultra 2 models.

Apple says it puts refurbished products through "full functionality testing" and a "thorough cleaning process and inspection," and they are covered by Apple's one-year limited warranty and eligible for extended AppleCare+ coverage. In our view, Apple's refurbished products are virtually indistinguishable from brand new ones.

The refurbished Apple Watch Ultra 2 models come in a plainer box, with a fast-charging puck.

I have really liked my Black Titanium Ultra 2; I was a little bit concerned that the color would make scratches show up more, but it has proven to be just as rugged as my first Ultra and still looks great after months of wear in all sorts of situations.

Once Series 10 became available, a lot of people dropped the Ultra. Unless you need the siren or multi-day battery life, S10 is enough and fits under shirt cuffs.

I like the features of the Ultra, but really need it in a smaller form factor. My wrist cannot handle the girth.

and then there is the flat screen. which is easier to read, and the better water resistance.
BTW, My U2 fits just nicely under my shirt cuff

I don't need the action button, siren, or extra battery life, but the flat screen is so much easier for me to interact with (complications in corners, etc. ) and see (no glare from curved edges) that I would never want to go back to the normal screen version.

I also agree with those who find it fat and ugly, but I figure nobody will ever want to steal it from me.

For Apple’s standards $679 is really good. Was expecting $729, not even trying to be funny. ?
