Q: My apple watch face stopped working. The face will not display. Any thoughts on getting it running again?
My watch face has gone dark for no reason. I recharged it and it is still not working. No updates were required at the time. Why?
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.2.x)

Hi
Try force restarting your watch: press and hold both the side button and Digital Crown for around 10 seconds, until you see the logo.
If that does not help, next try charging your watch for around 2.5 hours, making sure that you follow the charging 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).
- If necessary, next try force restarting it again.
