The screen popped off my series 3 last night it was still connected but only has the apple logo on the display so won't boot past bios, I think there is a small copper connector at the top that might be bent, kinda gutted as I was gonna upgrade when the new watch was released in like 3 months... typical. Just ordered a refurbed series 6 from Amazon large size for £245 was either the or SE
 
Ah that's terrible. The screen popping off could be due to battery swelling. It wouldn't hurt to check with Apple to see if they're covering that case. They extended Series 1 warranty coverage due to battery swelling.

Apple on Friday alerted authorized repair facilities to an Apple Watch service coverage extension for first-generation devices suffering from battery swelling, a rare issue impacting a small segment of owners.
