Try a forced reset;

To force reset your Apple Watch, 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.

My series 5 watch the "always on" feature stopped working. It is turned "on" in "settings". How do I fix this? The "Always On" feature in My Series 5 watch suddenly stopped working. In "Settings" it is turned on. When I tap the screen it lights up, stays on for about a minutes then goes black until I tap it again. How do I correct this?

Watch 6 Always On isnt working I have 2 issues that occured after I was doing outdoor work yesterday. 1) The Always On function is not working. 2) When I first tap the screen of the Watch, a red dot appears in the top-center, and then this switches to what looks like the Smiling Mask over the Frowning Mask (like in acting?!?).
