Stuck heart rate during activity on Apple Watch

When starting an activity, the watch starts picking my heart beat then it jams at, say, 77, and stays there for half of the training. It has been doing it for years. Very (blip) product.

Apple Watch Heart Rate Not Working Every single time I start a workout, it stops after 10.5 seconds and it will never display my heart rate. I've tried every work around I've seen on here (tightening band, cleaning back of watch, updating the settings, not wearing over tattoo) and nothing seems to work at all. Is it possible that something is wrong with my watch?

My Apple Watch loses track of my heart rate during workout Sometimes when I workout. My heart rate is not showing in the fitness app. Sometimes with a grey dots before the heart rate shows again. I have made sure that the back of the watch is clean and that there is a snug fit. I have also made sure that all the settings are correct. I am wondering if my hairy arms have something to do with it? lol Any ideas? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Apple Watch Series 10 46mm ECG app not working I have a series 10 watch - 46mm watch with the latest updates. However for the last one year i am not able to run ECG. I have got the watch replaced twice - it works for a week and then it stops. The watch screen shows erratic bars without even touching the crown. It goes on for a while and gets reset. Sometimes - it records for 3o seconds and reports poor recording. One tell tale sign of it not working is that the heart rate shown on the top left of the ECG app does not show any number. Have anyone got similar issues. Any resolution ?

I wear my Ultra 2 a bit (1-2cm) further away from the wrist when exercising, so that the sensors do not lose contact.

Otherwise the weight of the Ultra combined with the movement of the arm pushes it forward, even when riding my MTB.
