Solo band too big

Hello, my apple watch just got delivered today and it turns out the solo loop is too big. I got size 6 but I should have got a size 5, is there any way to have it replaced without sending off the watch back?

Apple Watch keeps unpairing during initial set up I just purchased a new Apple watch series 8 and began to pair it with my iPhone 12. I got past where it is paired and I tell it which wrist I wear the watch on, and it began doing something else that would take a few minutes and then it starts to unpair. It has done this several times, and I'm not sure what to do. I've shut down each and restarted, but still does the same thing. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Apple Watch Ultra locking while on wrist I have an Apple Watch Ultra running the latest release (9.1 build 20S75) and have had continuous issues with the watch locking itself. It has occurred while wearing multiple types of straps including the Ocean Band, Sport Loop, and the Alpine Loop. I wear my bands pretty tight (tight enough that they leave indentations on my wrist 360 degrees). I've worn Apple Watches since 2016, and this only started happening with Watch OS 9 / Apple Watch Ultra. Before the inevitable question, yes, I searched for similar posts and no, I didn't find any that had relevant answers. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue with Watch OS 9 and/or Apple Watch Ultra? Any ideas on a fix? I'd prefer to avoid the un-pair / re-pair route, but will try it if it's a viable solution. Thanks in advance.

Apple Watch Ultra Orange Alpine band showing wear already I've had my Ultra for just over 14 days and have not done much "extraneous" activities but have noticed that depending on the angle or light reference the band appears to be dirty. Pretty disappointed that such a pricey watch band (the band alone goes for over $100 regardless of size when you factor in taxes 49mm Orange Alpine Loop - Small - Apple) is not looking as good. I have seen tips on cleaning bands How to clean your Apple Watch - Apple Support and will have to try that at some point since I'm disappointed after just over 14 days.

Yes, contact Support and they will arrange a one time offer to exchange the band for the correct size. You will only need to send in the band.
