Watches bad reaction

[Ben_Dover]

anyone else having this problem?

I have 3 bands: link, loop, sports. I use the sports daily.

This happens with or without moisturizer. I clean my bands with damp cloth after workouts. My skin also reacts to the back panel.

I didn't use my watch for a day and it seemed to subside but I miss the watch terribly

Before the  watch I was using g shock for everyday use and didn't have this problem.

Do you know a sensitivity to nickel or methacrylates?

Which model did you have? I had the same issue as well, seen a few threads about the same thing.

My gf has the same issue but she is using a Fitbit. I was considering getting her an apple watch but not sure if she would have same issue with sports watch.

My wife had a problem with her stainless steel. Had to take it back. She'll probably get a sport once I get my black SS today and she sees me playing with it.

If nickel is the cause of the irritation, then the space gray Sport may still cause issues. Apple's documentation says the SG Sport also contains some nickel.
