Yesterday i noticed that notifications were going to the watch while it was on the table, then i saw that it was unlocked (no lock symbol). Tried to reset and everything back to normal until the same thing happened today. Its random, sometimes it simply unlocks when im not wearing it.
Someone had a similar problem ? Any suggestions ?

Wrist detection is: ON

No. I've not experienced that yet, thankfully. What WatchOS version are you running?

Do you have unlock with iPhone enabled? Its possible the table is conductive enough for the sensors to think its on your wrist and when you unlock the phone the watch unlocks.

Yes, unlock with iphone is enabled. The table is made of wood.

Im doing more tests. Ive disabled and enable the code and so far... no more problems. I ll continue to test and report if the problem is solved.

If you have the Unlock with iPhone setting enables, it will unlock automatically if it's on your wrist and you unlock a paired iPhone.
