I can't switch watch faces on my Apple Watch

After updating to new iPhone 15 Pro and unpairing and then re-pairing Apple Watch, I can't switch watch faces. I used to be able to swipe between them.

This has been changed in watchOS 10.2. Tap & hold is still the default way to change watch faces and is welcomed by those who complained that it was too easy to switch watch faces accidentally.


But in 10.2 go to Settings on the watch. Swipe down to Clock and tap. There is a toggle switch to revert to swiping to switch watch faces.
