If you've made it this far without a new Apple Watch, I'd suggest waiting for the September event.

I put it in my cart and debated pulling the trigger. Pulled the trigger and no longer in stock. Lol. Only used options.

Why's it called the GPS watch? From some Internet searching, it seems "GPS" model is code for "non-cellular" model? It looks like all Apple Watches have had GPS since series 2.
Yes, the “GPS” (only) designation is to distinguish it from the cellular model (which is called “GPS + Cellular”), but I can see how calling out “GPS” makes it seem like it’s a stand-out or unique feature. It’s probably one of those cases where since Series 2 introduced GPS, the name stuck and was never changed.
