Water damage

I put my watch on water more like I always do when I swim and it stopped working during my swim this time. Is there anything that can be done considering it’s advertised to be be waterproofed?

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 7

My Apple Watch Series 6 is damaged by the water. What can I do? This is the interior of my Apple Watch Series 6 with serious damage by water. It is supposed to be Waterproof, well it isn't.... Shortly after my 1 year warranty expired, the watch stopped working. Apple doesn't cover it anymore even if this is their faulty product. I went to an Apple Store and they can't do anything. I used it as any normal person with a waterproof watch, in the pool, in the sea, I honestly didn't expect this to be as bad as it is. Be careful! They're not waterproof....

Just curious do you shower with your Apple Watch on? I’m just curious if anybody swim’s or showers with their watch on, due to possibility of voiding warranty with water damage. I know they have the water mode 💧but if for some reason if the watch quit working due to water damage how would that work.

Watch waterproof? How long can the Apple Watch be in chlorine water? I swim a lot and my watch lasted only 10 months before the screen went totally black and would not respond or re-charge.
