Can I charge new Apple Watch 10 with old magnetic cables?

Is it possible to use old magnetic cables (from Apple Watch 3) to charge newer models such as Apple Watch 10? Thanks for the help.

Yes. It is completely possible to use the older mag-cables from previous Apple Watch Generations on newer ones. The only downside to doing this, is that it will charge slower. I used the cable that came with my Series 8 on my Series 10 and I could notice the difference between the one that came with it and the older one.
