Looking to pick up an Apple Watch but don’t want to spend extra on watch bands or a charging stand?

Groupon has your dream bundle, then, with a Sport edition of Apple’s famous wearable, along with third-party knockoffs of the Milanese Loop and leather strap and a charging stand all for the price of the actual Apple Watch.

You can get your Sport in either green or blue varieties as well as in either the 38mm or 42mm size to match your own wrist size, along with two watch bands to swap out as your dress or intended activity changes and a charging stand to keep your Apple Watch juiced up each night.

The Groupon deal will get you one Apple Watch, plus the two extra bands and stand, for $349 (or $399 for the larger watch), which is the price of the Watch on its own.

Don’t go thinking these are Apple bands, however, as the Q & A page states, “The Apple Watch Sport itself (with either green or blue band) is a new Apple product in original unopened packaging. The extra accessories (Milanese Loop band, saddle brown band, and stand) are new third party products.”

Most third-party watch bands for Apple Watch are almost as good as the Apple-made ones, and the charging in the photo looks as good as others we’ve tried (all of them just provide a new way to use the included charging circle for Apple Watch)

You’ll also have to purchase AppleCare separately, if you want to protect your Apple Watch.

The Groupon deal says you’re getting a 49 percent discount, saving $339.97. While that might be a bit over-estimated, you’ll still get a nice stand and two different watch bands with your Apple Watch, making it a pretty good deal.

Head on over to Groupon to grab your own blue or green Apple Watch Sport with three extra third-party accessories now.
