What can I do when my Watch is stuck displaying the Apple logo

I inadvertently did a “force restart” when my Apple Watch 3 couldn’t finish the OS8.7.1 update after 2 days of trying. It has been displying the Apple logo only for hours. What can I do to coax it to display the time of day?

Apple Watch, watchOS 4
