Moto 360 Stuck on Startup, what can I do?

[AC Question]

Moto 360 Stuck on Startup

After leaving my watch in my drawer for about 2 months with a fully charged battery, I took it out and turned it on. It was out of battery, I presumed. Ok then, so I plug it into a charger. I charge it for a while and turn it on. It's been on the startup loop (four dots spinning) for a while now. So I force shut down and put it back in the charger. I leave it to charge overnight and I wake up and it's doing the startup loop again. I hope it will startup and take a shower. I come back and I discover that it does a cycle: It turns on, loops the startup animation, runs out of battery, charges. Rinse and repeat. I would really like some help with this issue as my Moto 360 was quite expensive. Thank you in advance.

Hold down the crown button for something like 30-35 seconds and this should turn it off and the battery icon will show to indicate charging. Once it's charged, try booting it from there in the dock

My watch seems to have completely died. I can't get it to charge. So, I'm wondering if there's any way to verify whether the charging base is now defective.
