I just got an Apple Watch Series 2 that had a swollen battery that popped the watch face off.
I took the battery out and replaced it with a new one.
The "green snake" ("charge me please") shows up on the screen and eventually turns off.

However, once I turn on the watch, the logo shows up for 3-4 seconds then turns off and the watch never gets beyond this point.

It was working great before the old battery died.
 
Turn it on, leave it with the snake on screen until its completely out of power (black screen), then charge for a few hours.
