When i got my watch on the wrist everything seem fine. the little counter increases at every notification.
With the watch off, it stop working. Or better, it shows a mix of badges and notification numbers.

Bug? i restard my phone but id doesn't fix it.

Thanks in advance for any help.
 
I haven't seen this behavior, but it could be a misunderstanding on how the count option works. The counter (and the stack or list options) only apply to new notifications as they come in. It's only the number of new/unseen notifications you haven't seen yet. Once you unlock your phone, they move off the home screen and into your Notification Center and are no longer counted. This post I posted yesterday might help clear up some potential confusion.

Otherwise, if I'm way off base, do you have any screenshots you could show? Badges are actually the red dot with a number you sometimes see on app icons...there are no badges on the Lock Screen or Notification Center. I'm assuming by "badges" you meant the individual notifications?

Thank you very much for your answer.
The video io share explain good the 3 notifications mode.

But what i want , when i receive a new notification, in the "count mode", is to see just a +1 number in the list and not the banner with under the number of other notification. Here's a pic of what i mean,
