Is The Apple Watch Waterproof?

TL;DR AI
2 min readKey summary
Apple Watch is water resistant, not fully waterproof, and water use depends on the model’s rating.
Series 2 and later models, including Apple Watch SE, are rated to 50 meters and are generally suitable for swimming.
Apple Watch Ultra is rated to 100 meters, making it better suited for more demanding water activities.
Water resistance can degrade over time, and factors like band choice and usage matter; Water Lock helps, but does not make the watch waterproof.
