So I can get a Series 3 Apple Watch 42mm with Cellular for $176 USD. Or I could get the non-cellular version for $163 USD. Is there a big enough difference to justify the extra money?

 

P.S. I always have my phone and I don't run outside. 

 

Thanks

The Cellular version has very little use outside of the "What if" scenarios if you have your phone on you all the time. 

 

The Cellular version has saved lives before. Is that potential worth $10 more and a cellular data plan? That's up to you.

I'd get the cellular since it's not that much more expensive and, AFAIK, you can always just not use the cellular, but it's easier to not use it then it is to need it and not have it.

Neither

Get an Audemars Piguet instead.

Much more effective at what you buying the watch for.

Holds value for way longer.

.......................... did I miss something or are you genuinely recommending a 20k watch
