Apple Watch Heart Rate Monitor

Hi. My Apple Watch stops recording my heart rate after a few minutes of running. As soon as I stop running, it picks it up again. Then I continue running and again the same thing. Sometimes it stops measuring for 4-5 mins and then starts monitoring again without me needing to stop running. My watch strap is always tight. I have a Series 4. I used my wife’s Series 3 on my right hand and my Series 4 on the left. The Series 3 measured consistently while the Series 4 stopped measuring a few times during my run. I turned off the high & low heart rate notifications thinking this could be the issue but I still get this problem.


Could it be a hardware issue?

Apple Watch Series 4, watchOS 5
