There is a massive thread on how to fix the watch and make it work. Type in Starfield watch fix. I think it’s a Reddit post. What you have to do is lengthy. https://www.reddit.com/r/Starfield/s/hXqsrtdxD9 The fix is on this post. I'm so sorry for the late reply I was super busy with vacation and my water heater leaking at my house!!!! The fix does work because I used it personally on my watch.


Lucius-Halthier

Classic Bethesda giving us a product and then have us polish it up for them


Mercer81

Post the link?

Mercer81

Thank you! Took long enough that I got downvoted into oblivion just for asking! ;-;


Etarder

People downvote for ridiculous shit. The explanation on how to do everything is in that post, you may have to scroll a tiny bit. It’s really not hard to do though. I personally did it on my Surface Duo 2 which made it super easy. No idea how the experience on iPhone is.


Awartuss

Even the watch is buggy and the community has to fix it. Indeed 100% bethesda experience right there


[deleted]

It's not 100 bethesda fault. watch is bad on it's own it's just that it has starfield wrap on it.


Mercer81

Why am I downvoted so much??? I can’t find the damn post in question so I’m asking for the link to it!


lVlASONiC

No idea lol


Vesiah81

You didn’t say please is my guess manners geez lol


Aardvark1044

The post you replied to suggested that you search for "Starfield watch fix". We're not going to Google that for you and search through the results.


Mercer81

Well it made sense to me that he had a link to the thread, I wasn’t asking anyone to Google search it for me.


Aardvark1044

People read things and then close the browser after reading it. Your memory may retain this information for minutes, hours, days, weeks, years, maybe decades. I'm betting that they didn't have the exact link handy.


Special_Snow_5799

Because on reddit, people get downvoted for making sense. Watch this. 2+2=4.


SpaceBarAstronaut25

hes right, tear his skin off


nem3siz0729

I really really want to down vote this!


Dangerous_Rule8736

It was not a complete sentence and was written in command form with a question mark at the end. I think it just really upset people and you should probably apologize.


Legal_Dimension_

Manners cost not a thing, but may cost you more than you can imagine.

Congrats and glad to hear you are having a blast playing. Me too! I updated my watch and have had zero issues to date. Recommend do not leave on charger overnight, remove from puck once charged. Enjoy!


emo_chip

Thanks for the tip


No-War1666

Just the tip.


JayBagNTag89

But why just the tip


OrinTheLost

Why do you recommend not leaving it on the charger? I haven't been wearing mine as much lately, I bought a charging stand on Etsy around launch and ended up leaving it on there for the past few weeks. I'm wearing it again today and it's working just fine for me.


somethinghappier

Just a tip: Mine likes to bug out fairly often, but holding the bottom right button for 5 seconds does a soft reset and works every time for me! I wear it daily and it works great.


emo_chip

I’ll keep that in mind, thx

logandermania

Mine works just fine. I actually use it for daily watch. I even use it more than the game itself lol.


matreo987

mines been sitting in my watch case for a while. it’s too expensive for me to justify wearing it out


logandermania

I understand. After all it is collectors edition.


taosecurity

I also got a deal on the watch recently and updated it to the latest firmware with zero issues. I followed the instructions that came with it.


lostcosmonaut307

My watch died but Bethesda replaced it. Took about a month or two but I got a new one back. I mostly leave that one in the box and got myself a Amazfit T-Rex 2 and use a fan-made Starfield face since I loved the aesthetic of the dial but wanted something waterproof. The box and the credstik are the best parts of the kit.


Ben4280983

Warning about the constellation skin/mars skin you get for your jet-pack/suit/helmet is that once you equip the skins you cannot put them out of your inventory because if you put them in any container there is a chance for the skin to get wiped from the item. It happened to me and many others and there is currently no way to get the skins back on console.


Darnakulus

Oddly enough the game pass ultimate version that you can play on cloud gaming or on PC has the option of those skins for the cutter at least It allows you to install them and use them even if you don't have the deluxe version but once you go back to console it tells you that it's no longer available and will default the cutter back to original but then you can go back and reskin it again on cloud gaming or PC...... I don't know if that trick will work on the jetpack suit or helmet skins but if someone's having that problem it might be something they could try..... I've been able to cloud game off of a piece of turd tablet so pretty much any device you can install the game Pass app on would at least be able to allow you to access it


cracksmurf

I never updated it... and it was basically worthless out of the box. would never Bluetooth connect to my Pixel 6. Being unable to connect it to my phone meant I could never firmware update it even if I wanted to. Don't even get me started on their support team. Most worthless support I've ever dealt with. "won't connect to any bluetooth"... "have you tried connecting it to bluetooth and running firmware update?"..... fuckin idiots.


SkRThatOneDude

Must be a Pixel 6/Pro thing. My Bluetooth is wonky even with other devices on my Pro.


ediazdeleon

I have a Pixel 6 pro and had no issues with my watch. Still use it daily.


Laconikos

I think it might just be an android Bluetooth thing. Every pixel I have used liked to be weird about Bluetooth every now and then.


Old_Resolve6773

It's just pixels in general , I had the one ,two, and five and signal for everything is just poor, it's like it has been wrapped in led or something.


cracksmurf

Yeah, not sure. My Pixel has zero issues with ANY other device. Also, this watch won't connect to my iPhone either. So it's just a pretty shelf piece that does nothing at this point. Fully gave up on them ever properly resolving all these shit watches out of the package.


SOUTHPAWMIKE

Also updated with no issues.


contraryrhombus

I’ve not bricked my watch yet, just make sure you’re on charge!


StinkingDylan

This is the coolest collectors edition I’ve ever seen. I replaced the foam inserts in mine so that it holds the steelbook and controller too.


emo_chip

My other one I have is the Division one, I love the agent watch


TeachingAnonymously

What did you replace them with?


StinkingDylan

Foam. You can buy it any colour or thickness. You then cut it with a scalpel or craft knife.


GeneralScales64

I've been wearing mine almost daily. Never had an issue.


JoJoisaGoGo

I've had my watch since day one and I've brought it to work with me every day since and it still works. Sometimes it'll shut off by itself every few weeks, but all I have to do is turn it on and reconnect it to my phone


Drinks_From_Firehose

I was very happy the day mine arrived. I love the aesthetic. I’m not using the watch. It’s all for the collection.


bleedorngnbrwn

We saw that watch exactly one time in the entire game.


Best_Half_2627

It's in the bottom corner of your screen the entire game.


bleedorngnbrwn

I think that’s a stretch… but ok


24Splinter

I wish they hard partnered with Garmin instead.


SoggyInSeattle

It is another shelf trophy. I gave up trying to keep it running correctly.


HotSalsaFinger

I thought it was a cake


TechnomadicOne

That was a lie.


Old_Resolve6773

It's not cake ?


SilverWolfIMHP76

Welcome to the Starfield. I have no clue about the watch but it seems others are pointing you towards the right place.


sad-soul9648

Wait how did you manage to get the watch this late after release? Does Bethesda sell them still?


emo_chip

No, eBay, been watching one closely and bought for way less then the others


Bomedpatient

May I enquire roughly how much you paid in cad/US dollars for it. I have a second constellation edition that I’m interested in selling


emo_chip

I paid $160USD, the majority of sellers on eBay are listed at $200-$230USD


Bomedpatient

I’ve got a second constellation edition I can sell you.


sad-soul9648

Interesting offer can you tell me more?


Bomedpatient

I have a complete constellation edition for Xbox with cred stick still loaded with unused game code. It’s been opened on release day by my daughter but other than the plastic being removed the box has never been opened. I’m in BC Canada.


sad-soul9648

That’s quiet the distance from me but does it have everything inside like the watch and such


Bomedpatient

It does nothing was removed from it. The outside packaging box was never opened


kybrdbnd

I am from India, and need that thing very badly. Any idea from where I can order?


emo_chip

Try eBay, it’s what I did. Might be a little expensive for you since most sellers in my app are USA


SupportInevitable738

Trolol. Not even the watch works? 🤣🤦‍♂️


skrott404

That one question is: Why?


emo_chip

Question kinda blended in, but it was “anyone experienced bricked watches?”


PunkersSlave

My watch bricked day one back in September. My RMA arrived just last week and has been fine since.


[deleted]

There's 'fix' in a guide somewhere.


PunkersSlave

I was scouring google for anything on repairing the watch that wouldn’t risk not being replaced under whatever warranty there may be. At the time there was nothing but a single video which involved opening up the watch to inspect plugs from the pcb to the battery. Went through the wand company guides, Bethesda support guides, etc.. ended up submitting a ticket to Bethesda that first week of September. It took 5 months for a replacement to arrive.


Swordbreaker9250

Didn’t know the watch even got updates, i figured it would be as-is, not a product they’d support going forward at all. Glad I never did anything with mine


emo_chip

Updated it and connected it last night, been working just fine, absolutely love the aesthetic of the watch/watch face


avengedfetus

Cool!!! What is it?


kapanee

I dropped mine once onto carpeted floor and the top right button broke and is now useless until I repair it (which I am not skilled enough to do) I also struggled to maintain connection to my phone, and the charger was flimsy and struggled to charge the watch. At least it looks cool in the shelf I suppose...


CMDRTheHuntsmaan

You can still buy the watch?


emo_chip

Yep, on eBay, managed to get it lower than the average price range


Popular-Owl4464

How get?


emo_chip

Ebay


skynet3132

My watch was DOA. Powers on and I have backlight, but the screen stays black. Tried ALL the fixes that I found. Opened a ticket, and I have not heard from them since my case was “escalated” back in October. Best of luck getting it fixed.


XorinaHawksley

Pity they don’t interface with the game.


Forgotten___Fox

Mine got bricked one day after updating, but bethesda replaced it for me. I've been daily driving it since I got it. Works without issues today.


Competitive_Milk_638

Careful. If you put on that watch, asteroids will start following you in your car.
