Apple Watch doesn't take payment when watch says 'hold near reader'.

Apple pay used to work fine on watch and phone (same card). Now doesn't work on my watch. I can double click the side button and up pops my card with 'hold near reader', but then nothing happens - it's like the card reader can connect. So then I have to use my phone instead, which always works fine. I've removed and added the card. Restarted the phone and tried turning on and off assisted touch. I'm on 9.6.2, but hasn't worked for ages!
