There are plenty of original Apple Watches from 2015 still in service. Including mine. I gave it to a friend and he's still using it. Apple did battery service on the unit.

I did not have any service on my unit yet. That's the point.

There's a reason why cell phone batteries die after year or two, while batteries in hybrids or EVs can last 10 years.
