Series 3 Apple Watch Keeps Shutting Off!

I have had my watch for 15 months. About a month ago it started shutting off! I've done all the things on the boards (charged 3 hours, shut off for 30 minutes, etc) and it is still happening!!! What do I do?

Apple Watch 3 version shuts off My watch is shutting off for no reason. Battery is still at 60% or more, and completely shuts down. I then have to put it back on the magnetic charger in order to get it to come back on. Any one else having these issues?

Apple Watch series 3 shuts down For the last months my Apple Watch series 3 have been shutting down during running. Often it shuts down after 10-15 minutes. I have tried everything i can think of, reinstalled, unpaired, set up as new Apple Watch, not installed any 3rd part apps only apps installed during installation but nothing works. I only use it for running and besides the excercise app i listen to music. The watch is like 3 years old but i have only used it for running not more than 50 times or so. Yesterday it shut down four times during the same run. When googling it seems like i'm not the only one with this problem but i have not found any post with a solution that works for me. Anyone with a possible solution?

Apple Watch Series Two Shuts down Similar problem - did not use for two weeks; went to use it in pool with app, and it shut down. This shut down has happened numerous times since; it seldom stays on for more a minute. Very irritating!! Update to date in every way.

Is that happening without battery drainage? If that is the case I would suggest unpairing and re-pairing, to bring back factory level settings. Start from here:
