Hello everybody, I recently bought a Silver Apple Watch 3 (gps only). Today I noticed under the light some vertical lines under the screen, they are almost imperceptibly but if I use my iPhone flash I can see them. Reading some threads around I didn't get properly if it's a screen defect or it's just normal on every watch.
I uploaded a pic to show them to you

It's a possible laminating issue defect. I would have Apple look at it.

There is a similar thread:

I have just checked, it's not this type of defect, they are under the glass not on it. They look like 4 vertical parallel lines

Actually I edited my post In the midst of the response, take a look at my previous post again with the attached thread. I think what you do have is a defect possibly with the laminated display.
