Yes, we provide a 3-month warranty for the repair work on the Apple Watch Series 3 38mm.

Yes, when replacing the screen, we preserve the NFC (Apple Pay) antenna, so after we replace your watch’s screen, this function will continue to work properly.

In certain cases, a full screen replacement can be avoided by only replacing the glass. The glass of the Apple Watch Series 3 38mm can only be replaced if the screen has no stains, spots, colored lines, and if it does not flicker. The screen must also be original.

You won’t notice a difference, as your original screen remains intact.

After replacing the screen or glass, we always recommend our clients to apply a protective glass. An additional protective layer will protect your device from scratches and reduce the likelihood of breaking during impact. This is a small investment that will help save in the future.

Apple Watch Series 3 38 mm repair services

Screen glass restoration

The aluminium version of the Apple Watch Series 3 38 mm has Ion-X glass, while the stainless steel version has sapphire crystal glass. After an impact, often only the top glass layer cracks, while the OLED panel itself remains intact. In that case we replace the glass and keep the original display.

  • When do we replace only the glass? When the screen has no black spots, coloured lines or flickering, and touch works without lag.

  • How does this benefit you? You keep the original factory display. Image quality, colours and brightness remain the same. This repair usually costs less than replacing the whole display module.

  • NFC and Apple Pay: During the repair we protect the NFC antenna located under the display. After the repair, Apple Pay payments work as usual, provided the watch had no other damage before the fault.

Battery replacement and specifications

The Apple Watch Series 3 38 mm uses a 262 mAh, 1.00 Wh, 3.82 V lithium-ion battery. After a few years of use its capacity decreases. The watch starts running for a shorter time, charges more slowly or switches off before reaching 0% charge.

  • Signs of a fault: The watch no longer lasts the factory 18 hours, shuts down at 10% to 20% charge, or the battery starts to bulge (swelling). A swollen battery pushes the display out of the case and increases the risk of damage.

  • Repair time: We replace the battery in 1 to 2 hours. After the replacement we renew the sealing layer and check charging.

Button, Digital Crown and sensor repair

The Series 3 crown, the Digital Crown, and the side button often stick after contact with sweat, dust, salts or moisture. Such faults make it hard to scroll through menus, press the button or use the watch during sport. We carry out the following work:

  • Digital Crown cleaning and restoration of the mechanism.

  • Charging coil and Force Touch gasket repair.

  • Taptic Engine module diagnostics when vibration or haptic feedback disappears.

Why choose Fixas?

Recommendation after repair

Impact-related micro-cracks in the case can affect water resistance, IPX7 or WR50, even after a careful repair. After glass or display replacement, we recommend applying a protective hybrid glass. It helps reduce impact damage and protects the OLED module from everyday scratches.
