Iwatch freezing on Apple logo

My Iwatch frequently freezes on the Apple logo. I try doing a reset but that doesn’t work. Once I am able to get to the Iwatch charger and I connect it, it unfreezes. The battery is at full charge when it freezes. I also have the latest IOS update installed. I’ve also turned off all notifications to my Iwatch. How I can I get this to stop happening?

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 just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
