Apple Inc has launched a new screen replacement programme for aluminium models of the Apple Watch Series 2 and 3.

According to Apple, under very rare circumstances, a crack may form along the rounded edge of the screen in aluminium models of an Watch Series 2 or 3. The crack might develop on one side and continue around the screen, the company said on Friday.

The new screen replacement programme covers a specific type of screen cracking in models sold between September 2016 and September 2019.

In its support post, Apple said that the Apple Watch will be examined prior to any service to verify that it is eligible for this program. After that the watch will be returned to the users in approximately 5 business days.

Apple may restrict or limit repair to the original country or region of purchase. The company also specifies that this program does not extend the standard warranty coverage of the Apple Watch.

Watch variants eligible for screen replacement service, include 38mm and 42mm aluminium Apple Watch Series 2, Apple Watch Nike+ Series 2, Apple Watch Series 3 with GPS, Apple Watch Series 3 with GPS+Cellular, Apple Watch Nike+ Series 3 with GPS and Apple Watch Nike+ Series 3 GPS + Cellular models.

Under this programme, accidental damage, including shattered screens, would not be covered as well as stainless steel and ceramic models that used a different display type.
