The display on my Apple Watch shuts off after about 10 seconds. When I tilt my wrist to look at it, it does not come back on unless I tap the face. Is this normal?

The display on the face of my Apple Watch only stays on for about 10 seconds or so, and then shuts off. I cannot make it come back on unless I tap the face or push the button on the right. It seems like when I first got it when I tilted up my wrist to look at it the display was on, something changed and I don’t know what it is. Thank you very much.
