Apple watch "waking" at fully charge, disconnecting and reconnecting to charger

Hi,


I have a watch that randomly disconnects and reconnects to my nightstand charger. It seems to do it at full charge and makes the connection "ping" as if if just attached it to the charger. I have tried 3 different brands of charger (combined watch / phone) and they all do it. This doesnt happen with the officical apple charger (watch only). I see people taking about waking problems due to nightstand, but my screen doesnt just brigthen I get the noise and the charge image as if its actually disconnecting and reconnecting. Its fully in contact with the magnet at all times and ive tried 3 different chargers... anything else I can try?

A few years ago my watch at the time (Series 3) would start making a noise every minute or so when my watch was charging past 95% then when it went to 100% it would sound every 10 minutes or so.


Turns out that the watch didn't like the white ceramic charging puck that came with the watch. I swapped it out to the new magnetic one and have never had an issue since.
