Show off your Apple Watch scar!

[iCore24]

I started wearing my watch on my other wrist until the mark gets tanned. Two days in and I got sunburned only on that white area lol

And yes I know it's not technically a "scar" but it sounds better then un-tanned area due from an object blocking the sun's rays.

What I do if I know I'm out in the sun all day is I switch to the other wrist mid-day.

I wonder when someone will call it untanned-gate, and blame Apple for making a crappy product thats blocking the sun.

Has it really been so long since people wore watches that this is a thing?

Already did, and it was promptly wastelanded.

Slow news day, it seems.

 

[friedmud]

Heh - I definitely have that.

Even when I used to wear a watch I didn't usually get a mark like this. I suspect it's because there were days I skipped wearing a watch... But I never skip wearing my Apple Watch.

I think what you're referring to are 'tan lines', not scars.

That's amazing!

And the results of the poll are mindblowing...

My Apple Watch ate my arm hair.


Not really, but I had to shave because it was just getting all over the place. Certainly one of the complaints I had with my old Skagen watch (with the mesh band)

I never wore my other watch(es) like I do my apple watch... which is essentially every waking hour. with my other watch(es) I never wore them around the house... so never outside on weekends when doing yardwork. if I was mountain or road biking, no watch on my wrist... it would go on the handlebar or in a pocket. I was horrified at the thought of getting a wrist farmer tan!

enter the apple watch.... I have it on all the time! so ya.... farmer tan... bleh! but then... who's gonna see it... cuz I always have my watch on!

The picture doesn't render the tan line so much, but in person it's very noticeable!

Even before I had an AW, I was used to wearing 45-55mm watches and have a tan. Not too worried

Where did you get that band from?

Not enough sun here to get tan lines... (But enough rain to test out the water resistance rating of the watch!)

 

[Nell]

I have a tan line from my watch but so what? No one ever sees it but me because it's always covered by my watch. It's probably something I should see as confirmation I don't wear sunscreen often enough.

Wow, never seen someone actually shave their arm hair for a watch

Haha had not seen that yet. But really it's a useful place for information

This is so true!!! The rare occasion my Apple Watch is off I feel naked.

 

[lg251]

Still working on that watch tan!
