An unresponsive Apple Watch screen after a watchOS update usually means the update did not finish installing correctly. Try a force restart first.

In most cases a Deep Sleep feature built into the monitor firmware, a PCI Express power setting, or a loose cable is blocking the wake signal. Press Ctrl, Shift, Windows, and B together … Read more
