If he were getting 12 hours instead of 18 then maybe that would be an idea. He's getting THREE hours with no use at all. The battery is just defective.
Got a tip for us?

I've had AppleCare send me a free pair of Beats Studio headphones when my iMac had a lot of issues.
Yeah but I was questioning the other person. Unless I misunderstood, he made it sound like they gave him AppleCare for free, and a Milanese loop band. Unless I read that wrong. So I called bs on that lol.
Sounds like your unit is defective. Very sorry... but, it happens. With 2-3 million ordered in a few minutes on the 10th, there's bound to be an unavoidable percentage that will have issues.
Apple will make it right. Might take a bit of time, but you will soon have a watch that behaves as expected.

I did see a thread on here about a week ago from someone that said they had a problem purchasing AppleCare when pre-ordering. They said the rep offered them a free sport band the next day a manager called and asked the person to cancel it because they could not give out free bands and it was a mistake... Says the post that I had read.
Normally I don't think they ever comp AppleCare though.
Say "manager." Only that word, as your response to every question. It will route you to the store.
I doubt that *no* Apple Stores in LA have white box replacements to offer you. I really hope you find one!
