Apple Watch is locked

Apple Watch Ultra is locked. See other posts about same subject. Was sitting on charger for 48+ hours. Went to use, says wait 6 hours. Before some smart remark, the device did it by itself. Have put into storage for 6 hours and will see. No good reply from Apple, have to wait and see if this happens again. Will dump the device and go for something reliable. Precious support requests don’t inspire me to keep the product.

Never experienced this but if you’re seeing other posts about this same exact issue and no fix posted…then other than following the instructions of waiting there isn’t anything new you’re going to learn on here. No idea what could be the cause but it’s not something happening widespread. Curious if you have ever taken it in to have a diagnostic test or sent it in if necessary? Could be a hardware issue. Of course if you feel like it keeps happening too much to trust it (not sure if this is the first time) then maybe going for something else like you said you are considering may be what is best for you.
