Ive had an Apple watch for nearly two months. I'm only getting 10hrs a day before battery level is below 10%. Ive turned off every notification, heath app and anything that could be drawing the battery down. Could there be something I am missing that is draining the battery?

What's the point of the watch then?

How is screen brightness and is GPS turned on?

I've had mine for a month and the battery is only at about 65% at the end of the day.

You might have a defective watch. It's still under warranty so just go to the Apple Store

This sounds like the case to me. I get notifications all day (text, email, ebay, activity, news) and will get home some days with very little battery used. I have the first generation watch.
