I might try another factory reset....might. I just found a Google Support page for this exact same issue and it seems like there are a few watch models being reported, so it's not just the Moto 360; as other forum members here indicated also. And it's not just Moto phones, quite a few folks said they have a Pixel.
And no, I am not ditching / tossing my watch. As long as I make an effort to keep my watch & phone within normal Bluetooth range and don't auto-update apps on my watch this bug has slowed way down, and not happening often anymore.

personally I would not be able to keep both in range - especially at work. in this case, I am fortunate not to have aw on my watch since it is a samsung, though there are times I wished I had aw.
maybe uninstall and reinstall the watch app on your phone will help if you have not given it a try yet.

I did that....4 times. No effect and no difference. It's an AW 2.0 bug

What other models, specifically?

Nope, actually a decent size house. I just keep my phone nearby all the time now. I used to do that most of the time anyway, so it's not a drastic change for me personally.I will reset mine and see if I can catch the message. But yea, there's no way I can put up with that and be worrying about staying in range of BT. I'd rather quit wearing then. Do you live in a Tiny House, Sajo?

there are a few different pages on the Google Product Support site and the Android Wear Support site; and not everyone mentions their watch / phone models. I do remember seeing quite a few Moto 360 Gen 2 mentioned and Huawei watches and Zen watches; along with Moto, Huawei and Pixel phones.
That's what I thought because I have a Huawei Watch and I have the unpair issue as well, from time to time.
My phone is the Pixel XL. Watch is the Urbane, 1st Gen.
No issues here.
I do still shut my watch off in the evening on days I don't charge it. I also don't leave BT turned on on my phone. If I'm not connected to my watch or a vehicle, BT goes off.

It sounds like the bug is specific to certain watches, since people with a Moto 360 and Pixel experience the issue but people with a Pixel and other watches do not. Same for Moto Z phones... it depends on the watch model. Must be something in these certain watches that triggers this bug.
Even more frustrating is that Moto has been silent on the issue and the Google experts on their sites don't seem to understand or want to acknowledge it.

Guys, anyone who here is experiencing issues with the notifications? Mine are not getting through (expect calls), I don't know if it's since the last Android Wear app update. I've since bought a new smartphone and had to reset my Huawei Watch but the issue is still happening...
Cheers

No issues with notifications here. Maybe try unpairing & reset the watch again to start over?

The new MisFit Vapor that expected to hit the streets ticks off some of the boxes missing on current Smartwatches, especially the waterproof box. Battery life is the only thing that still worries me. I've gotten used to once a week charging if I've been active and using the GPS on runs, or two weeks if I've been lazy.

I'm still happy with my Urbane, but I'm on the lookout for a smaller AW watch for the wife. She's got a Gear Fit that doesn't work very well anymore, but she doesn't want a huge watch.
