The only useful thing you can try is a Forced Reset. That’s Watch Speak for a power-off type reboot like you might do on a computer. Simply press and hold the Digital Crown and the Side Button (together, about 10 seconds) until the Apple logo appears, then release the buttons and let it restart.


If that doesn’t fix all the problems it is likely your watch was no longer as water resistant as you hoped, and some liquid has got inside. If that is the case the damage is probably terminal.
