Apple Watch Ultra return to all-time lows of $730 with $69 Alpine Loop discounts

Independence Day has arrived and with it come some all-time lows on Apple Watch Ultra wearables. This time putting Alpine Loop styles in the spotlight, each of the rugged styles drop down to $729.99 shipped with the price automatically applying at checkout. Typically fetching $799, you’re looking at a match of the all-time low with $69 in savings attached. This is also marking a return to our previous mention, which arrived only on the Ocean Band styles. So if you’re more partial to the yarn and G-hook designs here, these are the best prices yet on the unique form-factor.

Apple Watch Ultra arrives as the most capable wearable ever from Apple with an even more rugged design than the usual Series 8 offerings, or any of its predecessors for that matter. Everything about that improved feature set is packed into a titanium case that encircles the larger 49mm screen that’s the brightest Always-On Retina display yet. A more distinct side module encompasses the Digital Crown and customizable action button, rounding out the form-factor change with 100-meter water-resistance. Then there’s all the actual features like 36-hour battery life, dual-frequency GPS, and everything else you can read about over at 9to5Mac.

Apple Watch Ultra styles on sale: 

• Green Alpine Loop 
• Orange Alpine Loop 
• Starlight Alpine Loop

For some alternatives, our roundup of the best Apple Watch bands is packed with plenty of offerings for decking out your wearable with some more affordable options. Apple’s in-house Watch bands have long been a sore subject when it comes to pricing, so going with a third-party alternative is a great idea with styles starting from $5. All of our favorite brands have made the cut, giving you plenty of different ideas to refresh the look of your wearable.

Or instead of going with the higher-end solution, you could just bring home the latest standard wearable from Apple. Right now, as part of the July 4th savings, you can save $70 on nearly every Apple Watch Series 8 style. That includes the standard aluminum models that start from $329, as well as higher-end stylings with Milanese Loop bands and more.

That’s joined by all of the other July 4th discounts live in our Apple guide this week, too.
