Hi, I am v sensitive to nickel and have had to avoid fitness watches before due to causing me a rash. Can anyone tell me if the Apple 7 watch (maybe in aluminium) would cause issues with a nickel allergy? Obviously they are too expensive for me to not be able to wear!
Thanks

Nickel. Apple Watch models with a stainless steel or an aluminum case, the stainless steel band release buttons of Apple Watch Series 4 and later and Apple Watch SE, the stainless steel portions of some Apple Watch bands, the metallic portions of the Hermès bands, and the magnets in the watch and bands, each contain some nickel. However, they all fall below the strict nickel restrictions set by European REACH regulation. Therefore, while nickel exposure is unlikely to be a problem, you should be aware of the possibility in case you're susceptible to nickel-related reactions.

Would the aluminum Apple Watch possibly cause issues with a nickel allergy?
