Hi

I normally take my watch off when going to the hot sauna and steam room, however I noticed some people come in wearing their apple watches, I keep wondering if this is safe especially for the battery to be exposed to such high temperatures and for the watch electronics overall ?

I still think it is unsafe but correct me if I’m wrong

I have taken my ultra 1 in to a 180-200 degree sauna twice a week for a year, about 20 minutes each time. It’s fine, no issues with water proofing or battery degradation
