Hi
Try charging your watch for at least 2.5 hours (and perhaps longer, such as overnight).
When doing so, check that you are following the instructions here:
After that time, if it has not already restarted automatically, remove it from the charger and:
- Try restarting it (by pressing and holding the side button until you see the Apple logo).
- Next try force restarting it again (by holding both buttons down until you see the Apple logo).
- If your Apple Watch won't charge or it won't turn on - Apple Support
If it still does not start, I suggest that you contact Apple Support or make a Genius Bar reservation with a view to having your watch checked (under warranty, if eligible):
- Contact - Official Apple Support
