Not necessarily disagreeing with you regarding the people that are imagining things, but with a device so relatively popular as the Apple Watch, this could be very well explained by a software update that messed up the touch screen "driver" and is generating ghost touches. As the update rolled out, it started affecting more and more users who turn to the forums to look for help.

One consequence of these ghost touches would be inputting the wrong PIN which will initially lock the device for one minute, so I don't see what's strange about that.

Which messages, specifically, are you referring to with "exact time & date" and "same timestamp"? I skimmed through them but nothing of sort stood out.
