I can turn water mode on, but it will no longer turn off. It has worked prior to this and I know how to press and hold and all that. Putting it on the charger solves the problem, however when I put it in water mode again, same issue - can't get it out. The difference is that I can still use the watch, the water droplet on top just never leaves.

Yes. And that's exactly how it worked the first few times. Now, once its on, when i press and hold the crown, it goes into Siri mode - which says to me that water mode (although shows as "on") isn't really engaged.
Force Restart your watch. Press and hold BOTH the digital crown and elongated power button until the screen goes black and until the Apple Logo appears, then let go.

Yes, that seems to have fixed the problem. I've tried it several times, on and off, after the reset and it works properly. I'll be curious if it happens again, but appreciate the help!
I'm glad it worked and you're very welcome!
