I think there are two possible causes,
1. If this is the same tone you get when first connecting the charger, the charger may be disconnecting then reconnecting (at least logically if not physically), so it would be worth testing with a different USB power adapter and magnetic cable, according to what you have available. I know you have the adapter which charges your iPhone, so that would be perfect for testing.
2. Something actually wrong in the watch, either software or hardware. Software is a prime suspect because it started with the update. You could try unpairing and re-pair to your phone again to force reinstalling the Watch software. If that still doesn't work the last resort is Contact Apple Support and arrange to get it checked by Apple. Don't just skip to calling Apple Support, make sure you already tried the earlier steps because they will want to try these first.
Don't forget you can charge your watch at any time, you don't need to wait until overnight for testing the fixes!
How do I stop getting these emails?
Scroll to the top of the page where it says following, click it again to unfollow.
Same here except it doesn’t have to be charged it does it randomly for me
Has Apple released an update yet? This is driving me crazy. It’s been months. Steve Jobs never would have allowed this!!
Nope..
did this, still chimes...
Same here!!!!
I went to Apple today and he acted like he didn’t know about this. He said for me to bring in my cord. Sigh.
I am having same issue and it too was after update. It is very annoying, did hard reset, changed chargers, nothing
I have a stainless steel charger and the issue is the same. It is not the charger.
Oh great idea, didn't even think of that! Hopefully I can recreate the problem! Thanks
Hi, I just did an update and it is still doing it. So annoying. I have to put my watch on silent. But the light will wake me up with the constant turning on.
Did them replacing your watch help?
So far yes. But I just ran an update yesterday. Haven’t charged it yet. So we’ll see how that goes.
Wrong! Been there done that still chimes every 2-3 minutes.
Wow, maybe they finally fixed it! :)
Continuous chime when charging
