How to change way of ejecting water

Hello.

I found out that my Apple Watch SE 2nd generation ejects water by pressing and holding the crown. But I saw on someone’s else Apple Watch Series 6, that they just rotate the crown to eject water. How do I change the way of ejecting water from holding the crown to rotating it?


Sincerely,

Axelera

Apple Watch SE, watchOS 9

You can't change this on your watch with OS9. People complained that spinning the crown turned off Water Lock too easily. Apple listened and in WatchOS 9 they baked push the crown in to remove Water Lock into the new OS.
