I have two Series 3 watches I’ve updated, and one seems normal (two days or so) and the other suddenly can’t last even 24 hours. It’s weird, too, because sometimes it seems like it’s discharging at a normal rate, and then suddenly it will lose percentage points very rapidly. Like I went from 48 percent to 8 percent in a couple hours of doing nothing at home.

Has anyone experienced this? I’m trying rebooting it and letting it charge all the way back up and see what happens.

I had something like this happen to me by prior to 4.3 however. I IM chatted with Apple and they were able to run a diagnostic on my watch (like they can do with iPhone) and they said everything was all good. The next day though it was back to normal. You may want to chat up Apple and get them to run a diagnostic.
