stuck in a reboot loop help!

stuck in a reboot loop help! Gear S3 was disconnected from S7 Galaxy this morning. I tried reconnecting from the app in the phone, and it didn't see the watch. I tried to reset the watch from the boot menu. Now it wont reboot, and I can only turn the power off through the boot menu. I've seen several people complaining about this issue, but no solutions. Any advice or help would be appreciated.

"Seems like this watch has very bad water resistance so if you get a little water or sweat it will go in through the speaker and cause this to happen to your watch. What you need to do is open up the back of your watch and clean it out with a little of alcohol.

Good luck"

Bit late, only came across this while looking to solve the same problem. Took the back off and dried it for a couple of minutes with the wife’s hairdryer, solved the problem. Almost certainly moisture ingress as I had been for a run and been sweating like at the proverbial horse just before it went into reboot mode.
