Hello, 502Indy!


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities!


I see from your post that your Apple Watch is showing the Apple logo with white tick marks going around it.


If you're seeing this on screen, your Apple Watch is likely syncing with your iPhone to finish updating. As noted in the article, Update your Apple Watch:


"Leave your Apple Watch on its charger while the update completes. Don't restart your iPhone or Apple Watch, and don't quit the Apple Watch app. When the update completes, your Apple Watch will restart on its own."


Once this is done, your Apple Watch will restart and show the time.


I hope this information helps!


Cheers.
