Apple Watch Ultra3 “Stains”?

[dewced]

Received my AW U3 today! And the aluminium body looks like “dirty” on Some places? Is this normal?

i might be completly wrong but that almost looks like its been damp. i got a natural titanium one today and that was spotless

Looks like the VOC material to keep it from corroding has been active.

Look at the packaging - does it look like it got wet ?

I had this too but went away after cleaning with micro fibre

I’ve had this on some brand new devices in the past, but it is no damage.
You can wipe it off with a cleaning cloth or try to put it under clean water and wipe it.

My brand new AWU 3 had it too.
After some cleaning it disappeared completely.

A bonus for you, it's titanium rather than aluminum!

Yes true! Remembered I was thinking of writing Titanium but wrote Aluminium haha. Good catch! And yes definitely bonus.

My iPhone came like that one time, but after I wipe it with screen cleaner it’s all good 👍
