I really wanted to get an Ultra 3 this year, but will probably stick it out with my 7 for another year. $64 isn't all that enticing to me.
I wanted a Black Ultra 3 myself, but since the Ultra didn't get updated I went for last year's model. Amazon was running $110 off, Verizon was going to give me $180 for my Nike 7 as a trade but then charge me a $35 activation fee, on a watch at full price. I sold my Nike 7 on ebay and netted $131.
So the ultra 2 was originally $799, and a black ultra 2 also would have been $799.
I saved $110 plus tax, $120.73, I saved the activation fee, $35, and I received $131.63 from selling my Nike 7. About $288 in savings. I've had the Ultra 2 almost a week now and I LOVE it.
The total from Amazon was $762.93, tax and a screen protector. No activation fee, I'm all in at $631.30. If I really want black, I can always put a bumper/case on it but I'm actually liking the natural titanium, it works really well with the blue ocean band.
