Without knowing which screen sent you there it is difficult to be specific, but it sounds rather like the prompt which appears on my iPhone when I want to delete all the junk notifications from the Notification Center. In other words, it is thinking about deleting <something> but we don’t know what.


Given that you can’t make it go away it is possible some of the watch software has become confused and needs to be restarted. Try a forced reset by pressing and holding both the Digital Crown and the side button (together, at least 10 seconds) until the Apple logo appears then release the buttons and let the watch restart. There’s a very high probability this will clear the mystery dialog and you can continue to use your watch as normal.
