Without warning my Apple Watch face is lifting from the watch. Watch is still totally functioning. Solutions? Apple support is saying I will have to pay ~$150 to have it repaired! I didn’t drop it or anything. It was completely spontaneous!

Thank you for your insight! I've read about this battery swelling issue of Apple's. Since it's THEIR issue, I won't pay for the repair and I won't give them another dollar. Switching to another. Thanks, though!!

Apple does not make lithium polymer batteries, neither does, Samsung, Google, Swatch, Garmin, etc. So no matter which company you go with you can run into this same problem again. It isn't an Apple issue, it is a lithium polymer battery issue. So if you want to protest this with your money don't buy from anyone that uses that technology.
Actually that is the case more often than you know.
But in the case of lithium polymer batteries expand your research and you will find the same complaints from owners of other small electronics including Samsung, LG, Emerson, Sony, Fitbit, Garmin, Sony, etc. And to use the car analogy it is like blaming Ford when your battery fails.
It was your battery that did it by swelling which happens sometimes when lithium polymer batteries get old. Your option is to pay repair it or buy a new one.
It’s an Apple issue clearly!!
No, it is a lithium polymer battery issue. Apple doesn’t make batteries.
It’s akin to a gun manufacturer blaming the bullets
