Daylight saving time ended overnight, and some Apple Watch owners woke up to a watch still showing the wrong time. AppleInsider reports the fix is simple: switch to any other watch face, then switch back. The swap forces the display to refresh and pick up the correct time.
The glitch appears when the watch fails to apply the hour rollback automatically — normally a seamless background process handled by the device's synced clock. Most watches corrected themselves by morning, but for those that didn't, the face-swap workaround beats a full restart.
It's a recurring seasonal annoyance for a device whose core job is telling time, and the twice-yearly clock change remains one of the few moments the Apple Watch's otherwise reliable timekeeping stumbles. If the face swap doesn't resolve it, a reboot of the watch and its paired iPhone is the next step.
