I tried to do the nrfconnect again a few times today (both with standard version 25 and the cutting edge one) but it didn't work, no longer says bank0 but is back to looping the boot screen. I've been trying to get to the recovery menu since I got the thing but I guess I'm not getting the timing right for when to let go of the button :( it just goes back to looping or shuts off depending on how long I hold it.
Here's what I can get it to do at this time:
No action - boot loops
Hold down button indefinitely - progress bar screen, BOOTING appears at the bottom, screen shuts off momentarily, repeat (I've held it down stupid long, until my finger hurts, and nothing else happens)
Letting go when BOOTING appears - goes back to boot looping
Letting go when screen shuts off - stays off
And of course letting go during the progress bar takes me to the DFU screen.Husband just tried to put on the new firmware again via nrfconnect, no change in watch behavior, but sent me the logs which I've attached below.

BANK0 INVALID means there is no valid firmware, you need to flash zip from the phone via nrfconnect
if you succeed and this message goes away and it still reboots in a loop as it did initially, you can try holding a button until it reboots and still holding it while the progress bar goes across the screen and then releasing it when it starts to boot into recovery menu as described here https://www.espruino.com/Bangle.js2#recovery-menu
There you can erase storage which is probably the cause of the reboot loop.
however it can also be that erasing storage from recovery menu will not help and some hardware is really faulty and that is what causes the reboot loop.
Anyway first you need to flash valid firmware zip from your phone so yes try the nrfconnect or nrf toolbox app again.
