Touchscreen not working - again - 2nd watch

This is getting really annoying.  My Touchscreen stopped working on my original S62.  I called Customer Service and they sent me a replacement.  It worked fine for 1 month or so.  Now the replacement has the same issue.  The Touchscreen just stops working.  It has never been dropped or damaged.   I have updated all the software needed and turned it on/off many times.   Still the touchscreen just does not work.   Was my replacement faulty as well?  Is this a common issue with all of these?   The watch is not cheap and its really annoying that it does not work anymore.

    Not quite the same issue but after updating my S62, the golf features/screens have become so dim that playing golf with the watch is impossible.  The only thing support has told me is to set backlight to 100% which it is already.  The watch is fine, nice and bright but as soon as i start the golf feature, the watch dims to an unusable state.  Oh well, time for a skycaddie?

    Update on my watch. It took 11 hard resets but it's started to work again.
