Apple Watch May Cause Skin Rash

I have a 41 mm stainless steel Apple Watch Series 8. The watch leaves a rash the size of the watch face on my arm. I find I have to give my wrist a break and the rash goes away in 3 days. But I am starting to get a circle ⭕️ scar from the repeated breakouts. I love the watch, so I will deal with it. I wish they made a hypoallergenic watch. I get the skin pealing and all on my brown skin. I usually don’t peal unless I get a really bad sun burn 🔥 which is rare for me. Is this watch burning me??

Why does a timex regular watch doesn’t break me out. Oh well, I do leather work so I will make a band that lifts the watch head off my skin with a protective plastic layer under it and insert it into my specialty band.
