Apple Watch shows the wrong hour after the clock change: the fix
Apple published a support note for watches whose Always On display stays one hour off after daylight saving time ends. The wrong hour only shows while your wrist is down.
What it means for you
If your watch face shows the old time when your wrist is down, the watch itself still has the right time and your alarms still work.
What to do
Switch to another watch face and back (touch and hold the face, swipe, tap), or restart the watch with the side button. Or wait until midnight. Keep watchOS updated.
The details
Raising your wrist or tapping the screen shows the correct time, and alarms aren't affected. MacRumors had reported the same problem in Europe when clocks went back there. Apple says the display corrects itself at midnight after the time change.
