Does your digital crown has a slight wiggle when you grab it with an index and thumb and wiggle up and down? Haven’t bumped it against anything but did test the water resistance once. Just noticed this on a week old Series 3 aluminium and I hope that’s normal and it won’t come off.
Got a tip for us?

I’d check with Apple to be sure. I don’t have any wiggle and don’t recall having it on my previous watches from Apple. Maybe others will chime in.
Thanks for the reply, appreciate it. I would rather not go to apple if it’s something insignificant as nearest one is 3 hour drive away.
To me, it seems you’re a bit pedantic about the digital crown, being you already started a thread on a similar topic, there Really isn’t a need for two of the same thread:
Digital crown durability
Just yesterday decided to get my first ever apple watch, third generation. Now I’m having a concern about the durability of the digital crown. I’ve been used to the gestures of iPhone X but on apple watch 3 I have to press the button every time I want to close an app. That seems a lot of button...

My suggestion (As mentioned on your previous thread), don’t ask for random advice on here about the digital crown if you’re concerned with functionality, have Apple inspect it to receive a confirmation.
Good advice here about checking with Apple.
May I also commend you on this post's title, "." It made for some precision trackpad work on my Mac here to get to the thread.

No wiggle on my Series 3. Are you sure it’s not just your fingers moving? It’s hard to figure out a movement as tiny as a wiggle on something as tiny as the Digital Crown. Maybe try taking a pair or tweezers and gently trying to wiggle it to see if it’s really there.
