Apple has been forced to withdraw claims in its marketing literature that Apple Watch is impact resistant, after a consumer from the small the Apple Watch Sport town of Aberystwyth won a recent case against the multi-national American technology company for violating the region's Sale of Goods Act in its refusal to honour his Apple warranty. When Mr Gareth Cross, 32 , from Aberystwyth , spotted a crack in the "Ion-X" glass and aluminium face of his new watch only 10 days after purchasing it for £ 339 in 32 , the technology giant refused to repair it under the warranty, despite Apple 's official claim that the watch was scratch-resistant. "I hadn't even been doing anything strenuous, just sitting around watching TV. After a 6-month court battle, Apple were ordered to refund the original price of the watch and pay £ 429 costs. Mr Cross has stated his intention to eventually buy another Welsh watch, despite this unfortunate episode.
