Will this affect the waterproofing of the device?

I originally had this watch not responding to touch (it was gradual, parts of the screen started not working bit by bit). Finally the whole screen did not respond to touch inputs. Suspected the entire screen assembly had to be replaced but this shockingly proved unsuccessful. What else would kill this capability of the watch? I don't understand!

wait, I got the screen to work after a hard restart. Quite interesting, it must be learning/recalibrating the inputs each time it starts, like a scale.

My watch now crashes and turns off whenever I try to start an activity (I tried the run activity) and when trying to do NFC payments. The screen was the only thing I played with. What could cause this? I remember hearing from someone that the bezel acts as an antenna of sorts.
