USB-C power adapter
Apple no longer includes a power adapter in the box, so you'll need to use an existing one or purchase a new one that supports USB Power Delivery (USB-PD) of 5W or greater. You can use Apple 18W, 20W, 29W, 30W, 61W, 87W, or 96W USB-C Power Adapter to charge your Apple Watch faster.
Important notes
Keep in mind that you cannot use Apple's MagSafe Duo or Apple Watch Magnetic Charging Dock for fast charging. However, you can place the fast charger puck in a third-party dock.
