"Apple is testing a simplified version of the Modular Ultra watch face, originally designed for the Apple Watch Ultra. The new face retains the signature large clock that occupies the top two-thirds of the screen, with a row of three smaller complications beneath it."
"To tackle the density of information on the standard Apple Watch's smaller screen, Apple has removed several elements in the in-development version, including the central large complication and the row of smaller complications above the time."
"The new watch face appears to be a cleaner, less cluttered interface compared to the Watch Ultra's watch face, aimed at aligning the design language with standard Apple Watch models."
"Apple is also preparing to release its annual Pride-themed watch face, expected to be called Pride Luminance, as part of the watchOS 26.5 update later this month."
