I moved this to the Gear S3 forum for more specific traffic.

Are you certain it was there. I don't see it on my S3, but likely the same update removed it from mine, if it was there in the past.
I would think that water lock mode would not be applicable, since the S3 is only water resistant and not for swimming.

I'm pretty sure it never had water lock mode.

I have to agree. I've never seen a water lock and I shower with mine on all the time

Here's the funny thing. After one of the more recent updates if you go into the Wearable app on your phone under Display setting there is a "Looking for something else?" tab that has Water lock mode listed. It even looks like you should be able to turn it on, but it you try to nothing happens.

Wow. Never noticed it, but I don't go thru the Wearable app in that much depth. Didn't even attempt to turn it on.
