What do you mean by "not working at all" ? Perhaps the best test to check if there is any life left in it is trying the hard reset option first:


  • Press and hold both the side button and Digital Crown for at least 10 seconds, then release both buttons when you see the Apple logo.

If that fails, the issue could be your battery or no charge. Check this guidance for that part:

Finally, here the unpair guidance too:
