The watch has a red apple logo and does fade away

Hey jaydon67,

It looks like you're having an issue with your Apple Watch stuck on a red Apple logo. We can understand wanting to get that resolved. We want to help.

First, we'd recommend trying the steps here to restart your Apple Watch to see if that helps: If you see a red "!" on your Apple Watch

If that doesn't help, that would indicate a hardware issue with the Apple Watch. We'd need to get the watch in for service to get that resolved. You can learn more about your service options here: Apple Watch Service and Repair

If you need further assistance or help setting up service, contact Apple Support here: Get Support

Thanks!
