Lastly, Apple's warranty doesn't cover devices running beta software, so if you run into problems with your Apple Watch - even if it's not related to the beta - you won't get any help from your local Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider. Don't count on Apple's new Recovery Mode feature, as that's only designed for niche cases where an Apple Watch experiences a problem, not as a way to revert to a previous version of watchOS. If something doesn't work the way you'd expect, you'll be stuck with that problem until the next beta arrives, hopefully with a fix. Unless you're really eager and willing to sacrifice an Apple Watch to the vagaries of early betas, you're better off waiting for the public beta - especially since with watchOS, there's no going back to a previous version.
