Screen surface blemishes

my new Apple Watch has a consistent surface blemish, it looks like a staircase. I have tried warm water and lint free cloth, but it has not worked. It appears like a surface chemical treatment was not properly applied and is attracting dust at a different rate than the rest of the surface.

Apple watch screen develops a weird smudge in the middle Hi, I’ve seen this issue addressed by one other user but I didn’t find any useful replies. My apple watch screen develops this weird smudge in the middle when I use my fingers on it. The stain can be cleaned off but with more effort than the rest of the smudges. It’s almost like the middle of the screen is worn in but I have had this watch for less than 4 months and it hasn’t been used before me. Usually this stain gets significantly visible and annoying.

Scratches on glass of Apple watch 5 I'm having the same issue as others with scratches on the face of my new series 5 Apple watch after only 2 weeks of wear. Sales person said the screen was very tough, but in actuality its not. Is there a reasonably priced way to fix or fill in these scratches?

Apple Watch screen chipped i recently bought an Apple Watch series 3 second hand and it is in good condition with only a few scratches and a chip near the corner of the screen. The chip is not deep, more of a scuff but the screen is no longer shiny in that area. Would this affect its water resistance?
