About Apple Watch water resistance - Apple Support

Be aware that:

Water resistance isn't a permanent condition and may diminish over time. The following may affect the water resistance of your Apple Watch and should be avoided:

  • Exposing Apple Watch to soap or soapy water (for example, while showering or bathing). 
  • Exposing Apple Watch to perfume, solvents, detergent, acids or acidic foods, insect repellent, lotions, sunscreen, oil, or hair dye. 
  • Wearing Apple Watch in the sauna or steam room.
