When buying a watch from the likes of Apple or Decluttr, you shouldn’t have to worry about the device still being linked to an Apple account. If a listing uses stock photos or only has pictures with the display turned off, consider that a red flag. Naturally, you’ll also want to see photos of the device, confirming that the seller has accurately described any defects or issues. If they’re unsure about how to do that, this Apple support page should help.
Unfortunately, there’s no way to check if a watch has been removed before you have it in your hands, but the seller should be able to provide photos (ask them to include a piece of paper with the listing number in it) to prove that the watch has been removed from their Apple account. For private sales in which you’re buying directly from the previous owner, you’ll want to ensure the owner of the watch has removed the watch from their Apple account, removing Apple’s anti-theft activation lock feature.
What you need to look for when shopping for a used or refurbished Apple Watch will depend on where you buy it from. Your CNN account Log in to your CNN account
