my Apple Watch gives me an electric shock. Anyone else have this problem? And a solution?

It happens to me too. I have only had the watch since December (gift). It did surprise me (the shock), ha! Someone else wrote on this forum that the shock is when wearing the watch right after charging. I think this is my case. I thought I would find more users reporting this problem. Apple, are you erasing complaints? 😕

I have the same problem too... and I took it to Apple in Portugal and they say that the shocks and the sudden overheating are due to "statical electricity". I doubt about this... has an Apple fan I am very disappointed with this Apple attitude. I don't now if keep using it or what! Apple says that there is no problem at all with the the iPhone 6.

Hi

If you are experiencing electric shocks, stop using your watch and do not attempt to repair it yourself.

Arrange for your watch to be serviced (ie repaired or replaced) by Apple.

Hardware service can be arranged by contacting Apple Support (mail-in service may be available) or making a Genius Bar reservation:

So your watch is overheating? How hot does it get?

I just had this same thing happen to me about 5 minutes ago. This is the 3rd time it has happened to me and the first and the second time I thought I was just going crazy.. but this time it left a red mark on my arm and my wrist hurts.

Is not the watch... sorry... it was my iPhone 6. And Apple already take care about this issue. Thank you!

Then also follow the same instructions in my previous reply.

sounds like a defect watch too me, unless it's statics in which case any metal piece would conduct it

TThey want me to pat $229 to fix it. I'm one month off warrantee. this watch too expensive to be so unresponsive. Anyone have another fix?
