It could be that the battery died as they do without being stored at 50% and occasionally charged.

Pur it in charge for 2 hours then Force restart your watch 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 it doesn't start (and especially if you are 5 months into a 12 month Apple Warranty) contact Apple Support directly. You should be able to reach them here  Click here > Contact - Official Apple Support  or phone numbers  Click here > Contact Apple for support and service - Apple Support   or Click here > Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple
