Apple Watch repairs / replacement?

[Stevecee]

Hi

 

Earlier this week I shook my wrist to wake my watch and to see the time and the face fell off It's a series one Apple Watch and I've had it at least 5 years, I've pretty much worn it every day with out any issues so I'm missing it !

 

I've looked at the Apple Store and it would cost more to get it fixed than to get a new series 3 replacement, so I guess I need to find out whether there are reliable (and relatively inexpensive repairers), out there?

 

Also Some time ago I brought a reconditioned one from one of the regular contributors on here but for the life of me can't remember who it was - I've moved jobs (and Country) since then so have no access to any archived emails etc. If it was you, please could you contact me esp. if you have some going at the moment?

 

Cheers

I've not found an affordable repair service for the watch yet. Doesn't mean they're not out there though.

 

when I accidentally destroyed the screen on my series one sport I bit the bullet and bought a series 3. It's a big step up.

Better battery life, quicker, more accurate gps, and significantly better applepay (you no longer have to smear the watch on the card reader to make it work!).

 

If you can afford it, I'd get yourself the upgrade. After five years I reckon you've earned it
