My Apple Watch series 5 keeps restarting itself. It will randomly shut Itself off and then restart on it’s on. It seems to have started with the last update. Any ideas on how to fix it?

RESOLVED: I updated to 7.2, the issue continued to occur. My eureka moment was to erase (again for the millionth time) but while on 7.2 - worked like a charm. Haven’t had the issue since. Try erasing and setting up as new one more time!
