According to:

Apple Watch Ultra - Technical Specifications

"Tested to MIL-STD 810H*

*Tested against subsections for Altitude, High Temperature, Low Temperature, Temperature Shock, Immersion, Freeze/Thaw, Shock, and Vibration."

I may have missed it, but I don't see similar specs for the other Apple Watches.

The vibration. Also, might the watch think you had been in an accident or fallen and call 911?

I have an "8" but it's not that old. Hopefully, it's tested the same way. Thanks!
