Apple Watch SE does not track swim intervals?

I just bought an Apple Watch SE specifically to track my swims. Previously I've used various models of Garmin, which do that job well. This time I decided to try the Apple Watch.


However, I think I made the wrong decision. It appears that the watch will not track my intervals. So, for example, if my workout calls for me to do 10 100-yard intervals on 1:30, there's no way for the watch to track that. Is that correct?

The Apple Watch will track swim intervals. However, it cannot show you anything about those intervals during your swim. It will show you details later in the Fitness app on your iphone.


This makes the Apple Watch unsuitable for use in tracking swims in any sort of detailed way. I'll return this and get the Garmin.
