A red lightning bolt suggests your Apple Watch badly needs a charge.


A red exclamation point suggests:

If you see "!" - Apple Support


What might "after doing the button push" mean exactly? Restarting the Apple Watch requires pushing both the side button and Digital Crown together and holding them for about 15 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
