Apple Watch Series 2 is water resistant, not waterproof. The watch has a water resistance rating of 50 metres under ISO standard 22810:2010, which Apple advises means that it:
- May be used for shallow-water activities (eg swimming in a pool or ocean).
- Should not be used for activities involving submersion below shallow depth or high-velocity water (including scuba diving or waterskiing).

Warranty terms may vary by country. In the US and UK, the warranty does not currently refer directly to water or liquid damage.
Apple instead advises that the watch is covered against defects in materials and workmanship when used normally in accordance with Apple's published guidelines. It is not covered for damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse or operating the watch outside the user manual, technical specifications or other published guidelines.
AppleCare+ terms differ, as the service plan (or policy, depending on your location) covers accidental damage caused by liquid contact under normal, intended use.
For full details and conditions (which may also change over time), check with Apple and/or consult the warranty documentation for your country:
