Man Burned by Apple Watch Strap That Started ‘Glowing With Heat’


This man got more than he bargained for when his swanky new Apple Watch started glowing with heat, leaving him with a burning arm.

Jãrgen Mouritzen, from Denmark, claims he was left with severe burns after the strap surged with power and started burning his flesh.

Mouritzen had been wearing the smart watch at a flying club meeting when he felt the pain in his arm.He said: ‘I could smell the burning flesh. And the strap was so hot that as I scrambled to try and pull it off my arm, I even burnt my fingers.

‘There was nothing else around that could have heated the strap up other than the watch, but Apple have still not given me any explanation.’


Mouritzen, who is a fan of Apple, reported it to the tech giant but is yet to receive a reply.

He said: ‘I was happy with the watch and generally happy with Apple products, and I’m sure it’s very rare that this should happen however I’m surprised it’s taken them so long to do anything or to help out a customer.’
