Santa brought me a new 45mm Nike Series 7. I've been using it everyday since Dec. 26 but I've begun to notice that the watch is not correctly crediting my stand goal or movement(s). I have to violently shake my arm and wrist before receiving credit towards my stand goal. Has anyone else had this issue with their S7? For example, I was walking through a local store for close to 30 min. before getting the notification that it's time to get up.

I've recalibrated movement with the recommended 20 min. outdoor walk with iPhone, updated to watch OS8.3, unpaired and re-paired, unpaired and re-paired as new - the issue still continues. I know I have until Jan. 6 to return the watch with the extended holiday return window, but my local Apple Store has not had stock of the exact model I have since a few days before Christmas. What options do I have to get a new one? I definitely don't want to do a Genius Bar appointment and receive a refurbished model - I'd like a new one. Note: I have both a S4 and S5 and neither have this issue. Is this issue unique to S7, or did I just receive a possible dud?
