Don't force it. If you tried all the steps in the 'Change your band' section of:
Change your Apple Watch band - Apple Support
Then at this point, I think your best options are to contact Apple Support or, if possible, make an appointment at the Genius Bar in an Apple Store near you and let them look at it. Either way:
