Apple will either refurbish the device for resale or recycle its materials. The tech giant has handled recycling of smart watches before, but this is the first time it’s offered gift cards. Gift cards are available for original Apple Watch models, Apple Watch Series 1 models, and Apple Watch Series 2 models, with Apple offering between $50 and $175 depending on device.
