Apple MBP Magnets near the speakers

I was wondering if your watches have been affected by the magnets.

Been using my MBP while wearing my watch for a couple of years now without any issue....the metal scratching the clasp of the bracelet, that’s a different story.

I am using the 2018 15-inch MBP and I have noticed that there are magnets around the side speakers. I was wondering if there are any issues with anyone's watches.

I have a 2016 15" MBP as well, never had any issues, but I do avoid using a nice watch with it because I don't want the scratches, either on the clasp or the laptop. Both are far too beautiful to damage without reason.

Most modern Rolexes are pretty resistant to magnets. Unless you're putting your hand next to neodymium magnets on the regular, you will be fine.

For some reason my watch was affected by the metal cabinet. Now i only place the watch in a wooden cabinet.
