Series 1 Swollen Battery and Glass screen loose
Is it worth keeping the series 1 watch and fixing it? Can we DIY? OR will Apple provide support & repair for this series? Any advice will be helpful. Note: I have already unpaired it from my iPhone.

In addition to what has already been said, no, Apple Watch is NOT DIY fixable. And Apple doesn't sell parts anyway. Finally, a Series 1 watch is not even eligible for service from Apple. You could possibly find non-authentic parts you might be able to buy and you might want to try to fix your watch, but you'd be throwing your hard earned money away and would likely just destroy the watch. Even for current model watches, Apple doesn't repair them. They instead offer "out of warranty" replacement watches, especially for ones, where the battery has swelled, like your watch has.
Time to buy a new watch.

The Series 1 does not show as an option here:

I agree with Mal-S. It's not really worth spending the money on.
My honest answer is it's too old to spend money on.
