Hi - I'm unable to adjust the brightness on my Apple Watch (Series 6).
After overnight charging the watch appears on the lowest setting. Turning the watch off and on returns it to the brightest setting. In either scenario I can't adjust the brightness - I've tried adjusting on my iPhone and Apple Watch.
I've also reset and unpaired my apple watch; this returns the watch to the brightest setting but I'm still unable to adjust.
Any advice/recommendations? Thanks!

Spoke with Apple and they ran a diagnostics test. Turns out there is a hardware issue with the auto light / brightness centre. Covered by Apple Care so looks like I will get a free replacement.
Thanks for your help / guidance javaliga.
