I purchased watch at Best Buy when it was first available. Now it will not power on, but gets hot after being on the charger. I tried pressing and holding buttons A and B but nothing happens. Is there any way to salvage this? Or is this a problem with this watch?

I would immediately take it back and let them know the issue

So, you have it a couple of years now?  The battery may be at the end of its life.  Time to upgrade the watch, as nobody will change the watch battery, and if you can find someone to do so, the water resistance cannot be guaranteed.  This may not make a difference to you if you don't swim. There are instructional videos on YouTube on how to change the battery, and you can buy a battery at Amazon (make sure it's the correct one), but it's more complicated than I wanted to deal with., so I got the watch 7.
