Apple Watch Ultra is currently one of the best smartwatches in the world and it is meant for professionals who need a highly reliable device that can survive extreme conditions. With a premium yet rugged design and a hefty price tag, the Apple Watch Ultra seems to offer everything that one expects from a smartwatch.

This is also the first watch from Apple that can even replace a dive computer with a water resistance rating of up to 100 metres. If you bought an Apple Watch to go for underwater dives, and live in the US, you can now take a water depth test for your Watch Ultra, and the company will even ship a loaner watch while it evaluates the watertight seal on your watch.

If the device is covered under warranty, Apple will offer a free repair if there is damage to the sensor or the watertight seal. However, if the Watch Ultra is over a year old or you have not bought an additional Apple Care+ subscription, you can get it repaired for a nominal amount. Given the Watch Ultra is not even a year old, everyone who bought an Apple Watch Ultra will get a repair if the device is damaged.

This is a really interesting programme by Apple, where it honours users who have spent top dollars on its latest product. This will be a useful service for users who often take a deep sea dive and want to ensure that the Apple Watch Ultra is still as watertight as the company claims.
