Apple Inc. is said to have found a defect in a key component of its watch during production, forcing the company to limit supply of the new device, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing unidentified people familiar with the situation.

The issue is in the taptic engine of the watch, which mimics the sensation of being tapped on the wrist, the newspaper said Wednesday. Apple declined to comment on the report.
