Had my 46mm Classic on the charger and noticed that it was stuck at 88%. I removed it from the charger and it just went dead, would not turn on or do anything. After holding down both buttons for a while it came back alive and seems to be back to normal now.

Is this something I should worry about?

Is my watch defective?

What you think?

How often do you restart the watch? If you haven't in a long while, I'd say it's nothing to worry about. I restart my watch once a week to avoid glitches. I suggest that everyone restart at least every 2 weeks.

Yea, I haven't been restarting it that much. I also have a million watch faces and need to get rid of the ones I don't use.
Knock on wood, I've been working fine but still a bit worried.

In that case, I wouldn't worry about it. I learned from the GW3 that it works best if I restart once a week or two. Particularly with tracking workouts. I'd start doing that and I bet you won't have any issues going forward.
