Apple watch has the wrong date and time after charging

Can someone help with re-setting my Apple watch? I didn't wear it for a couple of weeks. Have since charged it fully and now the date and time are wrong. Is there anyway to reset these? I've turned it off and on already.

Thanks!

Hi

The following steps may help (check after each before moving on to the next):

If you have not yet done so, update your iPhone and Apple Watch to the latest software, starting with your iPhone:

Close the Watch app and restart both your iPhone and your Apple Watch:

On your iPhone, double-click the Home button, then swipe up on the Watch app preview.
Turn both devices off together, then restart your iPhone first:
- Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
- Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support

Unpair and re-pair your Apple Watch:

The Watch app on your iPhone takes a backup of your watch automatically when unpairing via the app. Choose to Restore from Backup during set up. Most data and settings will be restored, with some exceptions (eg Apple Pay cards, passcode).
Unpair your Apple Watch and iPhone - Apple Support
Set up your Apple Watch - Apple Support
