Please see Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support. If it seems reluctant, be more persistent and patient while holding the buttons.


If it has not restored after you hold the buttons for about 1 minute it is possible you have a hardware problem, like a defective button. If that happens the only option is contact Apple support and start arranging repair.
