The Apple Watch Ultra 3 (49mm, GPS + Cellular, titanium case with Black Ocean Band) is $549 at Best Buy today, down from $649 — a $100 drop. The price was checked live at Best Buy on 6 November 2026 and the watch is in stock. Best Buy lists it as a Doorbuster, “Save $250, Comp. $799.00” on the same page.
At $549 it is the cheapest verified price for the Watch Ultra 3 in the US catalogue. The other Apple Watch in the catalogue, the Watch Series 11, is $379 for the 46mm GPS Jet Black at Amazon.com. And the closest rival in the catalogue, the Garmin Venu 4, is $549.99 at Best Buy — a dollar more than the Ultra 3 at this price, which is the point: the rugged, cellular, 49mm titanium Apple Watch now undercuts its Garmin rival, and the drop narrows the gap to the standard watches rather than closing it.
CompareIdea’s take: if you wanted the Ultra 3 specifically — the bigger case, the cellular connection, the titanium build — $549 is the lowest verified price for it, and the Doorbuster label means it may not stay there. If you only wanted an Apple Watch and the rugged case is not the priority, the Series 11 at $379 is the cheaper buy.
