It is an irritation sweat rash, where your skin has been sweating and unable to breathe under the silicon strap, I had to change mine on my Fitbit and Samsung S3 gear FRONTIER..to a metal one, looks better and solved the issues, other change to leather

Is the irritation under the watch or where the strap sits? I had issues with my skin from the silicon straps. I purchased a leather strap and no longer have this problem.

When you wear the Galaxy Watch for a long time or do a high-intensity exercise while wearing it, skin irritation may occur due to friction and pressure. If you are wearing your Galaxy Watch for a long time, remove the Galaxy Watch from your wrist and do not wear your Galaxy Watch for several hours.

  • Skin irritation may occur due to an allergy, environment factors, other factors, or when your skin is exposed to soap or sweat for long periods. In this case, stop using your Galaxy Watch and wait 2 or 3 days for the symptoms to ease. If the symptoms persist or worsen, immediately call your doctor.
  • Make sure your skin is dry before wearing your Galaxy Watch. If you wear a wet Galaxy Watch for a long time, your skin may be affected.
  • If you use your Galaxy Watch in the water, remove foreign materials from your skin and Galaxy Watch and dry them thoroughly to prevent the skin irritation.

Just a few handy hints we like to share.
