I’ve never had an Apple Watch and don’t know the difference between the various models, I’d like one that can have multiple timers going at once, temperature/weather feature, sleep tracker, step tracker, ability to send texts, gps, waterproof and a screen that doesn’t have to be stuck on, what is the oldest model that has all these functions?

of you don't want always on display get the SE. if you do, get the 9. if you want 3 day battery life get the Ultra.

If you're looking for the oldest model that has these functions then don't get the 9 or ultra as the other person suggested. An SE will do you just fine. All models have all these functions. If you want a numbered model you could go for a 6 or 7 to save money and still get all of this.

Sam’s club has the se cheaper than the older models suggested for whatever reason, even with all the Black Friday sales it’s still cheaper for the se so I’ll go with that ty so much

Probably series 7. I believe that was the first that offered water resistance to allow for at least swimming. It is why I upgraded from my original AW to the AW7.

My 6 has water resistance

Why downvote a post asking for help… the ppl on this Reddit r so toxic

If you can get a good deal then get the 8 or 9. The 8 should be reduced by quite a bit now. The SE doesn’t have a few of the health benefits
