Can an Apple Store exchange an Apple Watch band?

Bought an apple watch 11 recently but the retailer (EMAX in UAE) never offered the smaller band size (which I wasn’t aware at the time). Can the Apple Store exchange this for me?

Apple Watch Series 11, watchOS 26

in some countries one always have a 14 days return option full refund


warranty is only valid in the country where one purchases a product


these forums are user helping other users like yourself, it's sort of going

to a physical apple store and asking other customers their advice


so if you wish to reach out directly to their support channels you can try

Get Support (apple.com)

And or

Contact - Official Apple Support

And or

Contact - How to Contact Us - Apple

Or

Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple


otherwise I suppose you can always just buy a band
