The screen of your Apple Watch cannot be repaired if it has scratches. None of the abrasive solutions\u2014including toothpaste, Polywatch, and other alternatives\u2014work. Instead, they will take off the oleophobic layer on your screen, and you don’t want that.<\/p>\n
Drops and bumps may result in scratches, which AppleCare will cover. My device’s everyday use-related physical issues are covered by the AppleCare warranty. However, AppleCare does not cover damage outside of routine everyday use.<\/p>\n
Depending on the model, replacing an out-of-warranty Apple Watch screen without AppleCare+ will cost you, on average, between $159 and $499. Prepare to pay $800 if you possess an Apple Watch Ceramic model.<\/p>\n
If your Apple Watch screen has scratches, there are a few things you can do. First, you can try using glass polishing paste to remove them, but this method is complex and requires patience. For this process, you will need a clean, lint-free microfiber cloth and a cotton swab.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n While stainless steel is a bit softer than aluminum, it still holds up to scratches and other damage. But the case of an aluminum Apple Watch is more vulnerable to abrasions and noticeable scratches. It is also prone to chipping and scratching more easily. In addition, it is not as hard as sapphire crystal, which a hard object can break.<\/span><\/p>\n The aluminum version of the Apple Watch is made of 7000-series aluminum. While the aluminum version is more lightweight, it has better corrosion resistance. Stainless steel, on the other hand, is made from iron alloy mixed with carbon and contains varying amounts of other metals. As a result, the iron to carbon ratio is lower in stainless steel, and different grades contain varying amounts of nickel, manganese, and other elements.<\/span><\/p>\n While the stainless-steel Apple Watch is more scratch-resistant than its aluminum counterpart, it does require a lot of care. The glossy appearance of the watch will attract fingerprints and other scuffs. Using a polish or metal polish on the watch is an effective way to eliminate these marks.<\/span><\/p>\nStainless Steel is Softer than 7000 Series Aluminum.<\/span><\/h2>\n
