I’ve just purchased my first Apple Watch (series 5) and I’ve set the watch to an hourly chime by following all the instructions, but it seems temperamental. One day it will work and another day it won’t.
Any advice?
Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 6
The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup. This deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
