Hello Dariel03,
Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you're having issues with the way the time is spoken after the update. Check if the Apple Watch has been placed into Low Power Mode, as this may affect Siri voice feedback quality: Use Low Power Mode on your Apple Watch - Apple Support
"How to turn on Low Power Mode on your Apple Watch
You can also turn on Low Power Mode in Settings.
Each time you turn on Low Power Mode, an information screen appears. Scroll to the bottom, then tap Turn On or Turn On For. If you select Turn On For, you can choose 1 Day, 2 Days, or 3 Days.
When your Apple Watch is in Low Power Mode, a yellow circle icon 
appears at the top of the screen.
Also, the battery percentage button in Control Center, the charging animation, and the time in Nightstand mode all turn yellow."
If Low Power Mode is enabled, please disable or charge the Watch, then test the issue again.
If the issue persists, please reach out to Apple directly for support here: Get Support
We hope this helps.
Cheers!
I have the same question regarding Watch speaking in robotic voice since WatchOS 9.
my watch is a series 7
its not that Siri voice quality is affected that works perfectly. So does Mickey Mouse voice.
I think myself and the original poster are commenting on the fact that placing two fingers on the Watch face to get the time now has a robotic voice that is annoying.
How can this be set back to a normal sounding voice?
