Watch is vibrating while off my wrist and on the charger, why?

Title says it all. I thought it wasn't supposed to. It's a Series 2, latest firmware that was just updated on 28 Jan 17. I have it on the charger, it shows it's charging, and it's on nightstand mode or whatever, but it's still vibrating when I get a notification (they're coming in now as I type this).

Check "wrist detection" in the Settings App(gear wheel) on your Watch. General/wrist detection. Make sure it is on.


If that is not the problem, then there is something wrong with the Watch. It should not vibrate or get notifications while charging. The alarm will sound and that about it.


Download the new Apple Support app and contact them if it continues.
