Watch OS 8.6 on Series 3 update didn’t finish and now my watch is stuck on Apple screen and not connected to phone.

My series 3 didn't finish updating and is now stuck on the Apple Logo screen of death. I let the battery nearly fully deplete but that didn't resolve it not being able to boot - force restart does nothing.

yes I followed all those typical step and it did not resolve my issue. I am now waiting for my watch to completely drain and have unpaired it from the watch app on my phone.


The watch still displays the time and when I charge when it still has any power I get the white apple and not a startup screen. So I am waiting for it to fully drain
