Your Apple Watch is water-resistant, but not waterproof. For example, you can wear and use your Apple Watch during activities such as exercise (exposure to sweat is OK), walking in rain and washing your hands.

Apple Watch Series 1 and Apple Watch (1st generation) have a water-resistance rating of IPX7 under IEC standard 60529.
Apple Watch Series 2 and later have a water-resistance rating of 50 metres under ISO standard 22810:2010.
Apple Watch Ultra has a water-resistance rating of 100 metres under ISO standard 22810:2010 and is EN13319-compliant.
Apple Watch Series 7 and later are rated IP6X dust resistant.
Classic Buckle, Leather Loop, Modern Buckle, Milanese and Link Bracelet Bands aren’t water-resistant.
