My Apple Watch started acting up after using while on the pool. Isn’t the series 6 watch water resistant? The watch should be fine?

Why isn’t working it won’t power on after leaving it charging for over 8 hours.

Apple watch water damage I went swimming with my apple watch series 3 and I think it has water damage. I tried following the steps from the previous posts to try and get it to force start but it isn’t turning on or charging. I even called the store that repairs apple products and they said that they don’t do repairs and only replace the watches. Is there anything else I can do?

Apple Watch series 3 not working I wore my watch in a hot tub recently and had it in water mode. After a couple of hours my watch stopped functioning normal and wouldn’t keep its charge. The next day the screen went completely gray and now it does not work. What happened?

My new Apple Watch stopped working the very first time I went in water. How can I get it start working again? There is a red lightning bolt with the time (occasionally) and the Apple symbol was blinking all during the charge last night.
