You need to use an Apple Watch charging puck. Either the one that came with the Apple Watch, one of the Apple accessory Apple Watch chargers, or a 3rd party Apple Watch charger.


A MagSafe charger does not work (and I did just put my Apple Watch on my MagSafe charger and nothing happened, so I've even verified this for you).


A Qi charger does not work (I think a MagSafe charger is just a Qi charger with a magnetic ring around it)
