I updated my watch and now the face is black and I can only see the time if I fool around with the crown. Both were next to each other plugged in to chargers. I got a message that my watch was fully charged but now it doesn’t work. Tried to change face style, nothing. Please HELP!!!!!

If you can only see the time that is ower reserve mode;


To turn off power reserve mode,press and hold the side button for about 10 seconds, until you see the watch restart and the Apple logo appear.

Keep in mind that if your battery is almost completely empty, you might need to charge the watch before it will restart normally.
