Rinse digital crown with water? Also for first generation?

Hello.

The digital crown on my first generation apple watch gets stuck. The general cleaning tip for the crown, is to rinse it with water for 15 seconds. Is this also safe to do with the first generation, wich has no waterproofing?

Hi niklasmg,

Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it seems like you want to know if you are able to use the steps in the article about cleaning your Apple Watch with water. The first article explains what level of water resistance is on the Apple Watch. The second article explains how to clean the Apple Watch.

Apple Watch Series 1 and Apple Watch (1st generation) have a water resistance rating of IPX7 under IEC standard 60529.
