Watch stuck in boot

Watch stuck in boot

I changed my battery something like 2 or 3 weeks ago. Right before lunch today I noticed the watch was reset and was curious what the voltage was.

When I got into the app I saw there was a firmware upgrade and started it, but the upgrade failed. No matter how many times I restart it it fails and my watch is stuck on the boot screen.

Occasionally I see the boot screen blink and I wonder if it fails due to battery being low, but that would be a bit crazy right? Since the battery was only JUST changed.

Also, there is apparently no way to "brick" the watch according to the site FAQ, so if the blinks indicated a loss of power, wouldn't my device just boot to the previous firmware after power loss?

I guess I have 3 questions:

-Does anyone else seeing the boot screen notice if the screen blinks frequently?

-Has anyone else had issues with the latest firmware?

-Does it make sense for batteries to die so quickly? Like I get that the 1 year estimate is an "estimate", but the battery I used was brand new, so it does feel like it died a bit too quickly
