Wondering if anyone here have experienced anything similar with their Galaxy Watch?

Mine is the Watch 4, 44mm, wifi only 

Was just at my computer table and noticed the show flickered and this happened. 

Theres a reddit thread about that others have experienced, but maybe not in MY:

Galaxy Watch 4 turned orange 

I also just dropped it off at the service center for investigation, cause I definitely have no clue what happened. :(

I thought it is a moon pic for a moment. But anyways, try to go to any Samsung service center. Maybe they might help you with the problem. Hopefully it turns out great for you 😄

Thank you @Lumina22 hahaha I wish I had a phone that could do that moon shot.

Yes, I have dropped it off at Gardens, SES (Mid Valley). Let them diagnose the problem.

Hopefully, nothing serious but my luck with these stuff usually won't end well 🤞

Any amounts of luck will help! Will post updates. What I didn't know is that you could track the repair status on Samsung website..

Just wanted to update for those who have taken an interest, was just informed by the SC at Gardens that it's 638 to repair the screen and the back case, not sure if directly related.

Cause of failure: unable to be determined

I can save you the hassle of going to the service center to find out the cost, it was RM638 if I recalled correctly.

Any chance of exposure to water or anything like that? Cause they couldn't determine the cause of failure, but what needed to be changed.

If you feel adventurous, you can look up some screen replacements. I thought about that but the screen replacements were like RM300 - 400 +/-
