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.

If none of that helps, I suggest you make an appointment at the Genius Bar in an Apple Store near you and let them look at it. If that is not possible, user the online Apple Support option. Either way:
