Apple Watch will no longer wake up MacBook Pro

I was having no issues with waking up my MacBook Pro with my Apple Watch. However, all of a sudden, it just stopped. The only thing that happened since was the updating of the software to the new patch for my iPhone and iPad. Since this point (which was yesterday), I no longer see a prompt that my MacBook Pro is being woken up by my Apple Watch. Anyone else experience this?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12)

I have the same problem,it was working and then just quit working and have tried everything....turning the watch Series 2 OS3 off and on. Turned iPhone 7 Plus, running latest Beta, bluetooth off and on, Turned airplane mode on the watch on and off, turned MacBook Pro (mid 2015) MacOS latest beta bluetooth on and off. I no longer see anything on the screen other than the normal login prompt. There are several other things I have tried and still no joy. I am assuming this is going to require a code fix as a simple fix does not appear to be forthcoming on any of the forums that I have been able to find. The fact that it was working (and working well I might add) I don't think that there is anything obvious that I did to cause it to fail.
