“Apple Watch SE combines elements of the Series 6 design with the most essential features of Apple Watch, all at a more affordable price. We’re excited to offer another great option to help customers stay connected, be more active, and keep an eye on their health,” said Jeff Williams, Apple’s chief operating officer.

Apple Watch SE pricing and availability

Apple Watch SE (GPS) starts at Rs 29,900 while the GPS+Cellular variant starts at Rs 33,900 in India. 

The Apple Watch SE will be available in India soon. Additionally, Apple won’t ship the AC adapter in the box going forward as the company deems it “could become electronic waste”.
