<p>Quick tip: if the Digital Crown on your Apple Watch <em>all of a sudden</em><a class="footnoteRef" href="#fn1" id="fnref1"><sup>1</sup></a> feels too tight and doesn't turn smoothly, probably it was somehow over-turned (and probably because you played with watchOS 2 Time Travel, as I did). I don't know how that happened because it's clearly not supposed to happen, but turning it in the easy-to-turn direction for a few rounds fixed the tightness issue for me.</p>
<p>There's also an <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204639">Apple Support document</a> on troubleshooting and cleaning the Digital Crown, if the above doesn't help.</p>
