So I have been using the watch for about 1 month now, and notice the skin directly under the sensor have discolouration and peeling when dried.
It doesn’t hurt, but it left an obvious mark there.
Looks like burn. Im not wearing it tightly, 1 finger can easily pass thru.
Did any of you have the same effect?

Just took a close shot of my wrist to check, but see nothing close to yours. Can't see any mark.

Been using Ultra 1 from launch, and 5 months AW7 45mm before that.

How does AWU look on asian girl with not too thick wrist? Is it ugly? Wanted to get one for my wife for Christmas present but she's fit, afraid the watch will look weird on her skinny wrist.

It boils down to the individual's preference. There are quite a few ladies out there using "oversized" watches, barely anyone else will give a second look.

Think I found out why.
First 2 weeks I use without turning on blood oxygen meter.
Then try it for 1 week and got this mark.
I turned off for 3 days now and it’s healing.
Think my skin is sensitive to the method it use to detect blood oxygen. Cannot use often.

I don't use that feature...

However, I was thinking of another possibility the other day. After my Ultra was charged, I noticed the back was quite hot. It happens on and off after charging. I put it aside instead of using it immediately, after thinking about the mark you've shown. Thought it could be some sort of a burnt mark blush.gif
