Help! Debris stuck in Digital Crown!

Help! Debris stuck in Digital Crown!

Hello iFixit! I need a bit of help here because I cleaned my Apple Watch Sport 2 With a alcohol prep pad, and some of the cloth is now stuck inside the digital crown, making it hard to turn on occasion. My nearest Apple Store is 2 hours away and I have all the tools to DIY it. What should I do?

"@reedcrosby,Reed, You may have to get yourself a cheap dollar store magnifier/glasses to aid in seeing if fibers are accessible to dislodge with a small pin/compressed air(should work). If not then you may have to partially disassemble watch to get at debri. Link below shows how to disassemble, if need be. Good luck. I hope this helped you out, if so let me know by pressing the helpful button.

Try getting some tweezers and just slowly getting rid of all the fibers, they should eventually come out.
