Why does my new Apple Watch Series 8 won't turn on or charge?

I brought a apple watch series 8 45mm stainless steel version. It is manufactured in 10/22, I purchased it in 2025 and when in unbox and open the watch and it doesn’t charge. It showing the apple logo and doesn’t start. I’m very disappointed I don’t know what to do. Whether i replace the battery to use it or not. I don’t want to replace it.

Did you charge it at least for 30min, using the original USB cable and at least a 20W Apple power adapter?
