Apple Watch doesn’t show that it’s charging. Plugged into magnetic charger with 20W charger and won’t charge

Just bought an Apple Watch 8 and it it won’t show that it is charging on the screen. Shows apple logo upon setting it on the charger but fades away and I have black screen. I use the 20W charger and it still won’t charge. Not sure what to do at this point

The article If your Apple Watch won't charge or it won't turn on - Apple Support including the advice to Force Restart near the end of the article is the best resource for this situation. If you've completed that troubleshooting and the issue is still not resolved, use the link in the article to Contact Support. Or Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple


 (Note that recent Watches without plastic protective packaging do not usually have film over the watch back or charging puck).
