Indent or bubble under the Apple Watch screen

Hi, I bought Apple Watch Series 6 and on day 1 I noticed that there are bubbles under the display (yes it’s under the display and not on the display - weird right?). It only shows up when I look at the display under the bulb / tube / sun light.


It is not possible to see this without hitting it with the right light. Maybe it is the way that the watch is underneath the screen? What do you guys think? Also look at the screen how uneven it is. Is this the way the display is put together?

Hello,


There a no film or a screen protector on the display. I got my watch replaced by the reseller and the new watch too seem to have similar indent or bubbles but comparatively less than the first one.


Is this how the watches are designed or this is some defect with the ones I received?
