Something is definitely wrong. I put my 38mm on at 7am and it still has ~30%-55% battery left by midnight. I actually haven't seen my watch under 25% since launch day, charging nightly.
Got a tip for us?

I don't understand why my battery life is so poor.

My battery life has been amazing, daily taking it off the charger around 6:45am and putting it back on close to midnight, and the always above 50% still.
You will lose all your data, app preferences etc. You have to set everything up again (just like when you first got the watch).
Rather than do a re-pair, why don't you just do a reset of your watch first and see if that helps. However it may be better to just bite the bullet and start again now before you have too much data.
i just did this but restore from backup and did not lose any of my data. did you do a setup as new or backup and noticed battery improvement?
I set it up as a new watch (rather than a restore). Still, the restart process may be all that you need. Hope it works for you.
