I ordered two back in the day thinking my other half would want one, he did not. It sat in its box for years and I finally pulled it out recently when my original watch started doing exactly that. Now, ~6 months later, it's starting to exhibit the behavior that led up to the first one's touchscreen failing.
The first thing I notice is that some mornings when I wake up all the colors on the screen are inverted, then after a few times turning the screen on it goes black and won't respond for a while. After about 5-10 minutes it comes on to the Acorn logo but turned 90 degrees so the version number is right next to the button.
I let the watch battery drain till it's dead before plugging it back in. This worked on my first watch for a few months with this happening about once per week but eventually the touchscreen completely stopped responding like you experienced.
Kinda wondering if it isn't something in software as I've now had two watches purchased the same time do it even though one has only been in use recently for me?
