Apple Watch Series 1 - Not Water Resistant  If you have this earlier model of the Apple Watch it’s not water resistant at all, so don’t even think about going for a swim wearing one of these. You should be okay, however, to wear it while washing the dishes or working out - just don’t submerge it, ever! Apple Watch Series 2, 3, 4, 5 - Water Resistant Up to 50 Meters  If you have an Apple Watch from Series 2 to 5, it is water resistant up to 50 meters. However, keep in mind how old your Apple Watch is as with age and daily wear, the water resistance features will slowly decline.  If you own an Apple Watch Series 2 (2016) or Series 3 (2017) and you’ve owned them for quite some time, it’s pretty likely that they’re nowhere near as water resistant as they once were. Think twice before you decide to wear it while swimming. It should still be fine to wear it whilst showering, cleaning, or any other activity where your hands are in water for a couple of seconds.  If you own the Series 4 (2018) and Series 5 (2019) you should still be okay to wear your watch during water sports like swimming, snorkelling and surfing.  Apple Watch SE - Water Resistant Up to 50 Meters  The Apple Watch SE may have fewer health features and a slower processor than the Series 6, but it does have the same water resistance features. The model is water resistant up to 50 meters, so feel free to take it for a swim, or a soak in the tub - it’s more than capable of handling extreme water activities.  Apple Watch Series 6 - Water Resistant Up to 50 Meters Introduced in 2020, the Apple Watch Series 6 offers the same water resistance rating but is by far the most reliable. For those who like to swim regularly, the Series 6 is the best model for you. It also has some health features that are not offered on any other Apple Watch that are designed for under-water activity.  Apple Watch Series 7 - Water Resistant Up to 50 Meters  The newest Apple Watch model will be released in Autumn 2021, and is also water resistant up to 50 meters.
