APPLE I WATCH 8 series 45mm band, Reg.$700+tax Band $40+tax brand new in box.

this watch is like new, but hasn’t been used for when the a series came out. I have a brand new band that I just bought at cost $40 at Best Buy. I would like whoever is interested to first try linking the watch to their phone to make sure it links. I was told that after a watch is left with past data it might not get erased for new info to be inserted.
