Apple Watch SE randomly taps WatchOS 10

Does anyone have this issue when updated to watchOS10? Never experienced this before and now my watch randomly decides that it should tap me repeatedly with the Haptic Touch🤦 Every time it did that I have to restart the device and it is quite annoying

Apple Watch SE, watchOS 10

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
