How am I to charge this new watch? Buy something more I am sure, but what?

You have multiple options:


  1. Use the watch charger from a previous Apple Watch if you have one
  2. Plug the charger you got with your new watch into a computer with a USB C input
  3. Use a USB C charging plug if you own one
  4. Buy a USB C charging plug if you don't own one


Note: Your new watch is capable of being charged faster IF you use a 20w USB C Charging plug. You can buy one from Apple, from Best Buy or from Amazon. Personally, I like the Anker Nano 20w USB C Charging Plug and you can buy one at Best Buy for about $16.
