Galaxy Watch 5 not charging properly

(My bad! i just saw it' a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic)

Hey!

I've had a Galaxy Watch 5 for a few months now and last week it started not charging properly.

Whenever it is on its charging station it charges for a bit and then starts going "Charging paused" only to then start charging again for a brief time and then tell me that charging was paused again.

To no ones surprise, this is eating a lot of battery. My watch went from like 95% to 38% in a day while being on its charger the whole time.

The charging station I use is the one that was shipped with the watch.

There is a UI update and idk if it could fix that but my watch simply does not have enough battery to download it right now.

I restarted the watch a few hours ago hoping that'll help but it didn't. Also made sure the sensor and charging port were clean.

Does anyone else have that issue and does anyone know a fix?
