My Apple Watch will not open up, I have tried to force start. All that is on the screen is the Apple logo.

If the Apple Watch has stopped responding, try again performing a forced restart. Steps needed are found in the Apple Support article: Restart your Apple Watch - Apple Support

i.e. 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 you've completed that troubleshooting and the issue is still not resolved, the Watch may need some hardware attention so Contact Support.
