OK.


Traditional troubleshooting steps are:


Restart

Force Restart

And if neither works, erase the watch from your iPhone and pair it back. Below are two links to help you:


Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support

Restore Apple Watch from a backup - Apple Support


If none of the options I suggest work, then it's time to schedule an appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar to have your watch evaluated.

apple watch 6 is fastened to the wrist correctly, as i always did in other cases until 2 months ago when everything was going very well.
