In the year 2006, apple released a new series of apple watch known as series 0 which falls under the first generation of watches.

Water Resistance

The Series 2 watches are water proof. Apple made their watches in a way that a user can swim up to 50 meters or 164 feet. It will show details on the distance covered, pace, lap count and the calories burned during the work out.  Because the series 2 watches are water proof in deep water, it comes with a water lock. This feature is used to eject water out of the speaker.

Has a built-in GPS

Unlike the series 1, series 2 has a built-in GPS.  Even without connecting the apple watch to the iPhone, the watch can track the route and measure pace and speed. With Series 2 watches, users can easily tell where they are and how fast they are going for activities such as running, cycling or even driving.

Upgraded Display

Series 2 watches replaces the old display with two times bigger luminance screen. It is the brightest product from apple which means it is easier to view and use the watch on  a sunny day. The series 2 has an Ion-X glass that protects the screen on the aluminum stainless steel or ceramic models.
