Black watch face since recent update

My Apple Watch has gone black since the update last week. I can tap on it to light it up but it won't come on when I raise my wrist now. Any advice?

In the Watch app on the paired iPhone, go to: [ Display & Brightness -> Wake -> Wake on Wrist Raise ].


Make sure the slider is green.
