Hey Melanie Cook,


Does your Apple Watch continuously restart with the Apple logo, even after a force restart? If needed, the steps below show how to do that:


"Force restart your Apple Watch

You should force restart your Apple Watch as a last resort and only if it's not responding.


Don’t force restart your Apple Watch if you're updating watchOS. After you see the Apple logo and progress wheel, leave your watch alone and on its charger until the update finishes.


To force restart your Apple Watch, press and hold both the side button and Digital Crown for at least 10 seconds, then release both buttons when you see the Apple logo."


Those steps are from this article: Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support If you continue to encounter this restarting issue with your Apple Watch after a force restart, you can contact Apple Support for further assistance here: Contact Apple Support


Take care.
