The Apple Watch Series 3 launched in 2017 with an optical heart sensor, Digital Crown, dual-core S3 processor, accelerometer, and gyroscope. This was also the first generation to support cellular capabilities, denoted by models with a red Digital Crown, but Amazon's sale this week does not extend to these LTE models.

I was thinking the same thing. “Why is MacRumors doing a whole article for $10 off?” Lol
I'm guessing it's because MacRumors is an affiliate for Amazon, making money when people buy the watch from this article.

Previous price on Amazon might’ve been 279, but it’s $199 at Apple, so it’s really only $10 off. Still better than nothing though. I got my S5 $15 off at Amazon.
