Wrong Passcode, Try Again in X Hrs

I get this error that has been discussed. I do not want to reset my watch right now. BUT….I know I had not entered any passcodes at all this morning since taking off charger. I think I know the BUG. I usually have the same watch face but today opened the Watch app on my iPhone. I saw a watch face I had not noticed before so I told app to make it my watch face. About an hour later I went to get my phone and it had the stupid error, “Wrong Passcode try again in 3 hours. I absolutely had not attempted any passcode at all. No kids, cats or dogs did either. APPLE BUG most likely by switching to a new or unnoticed watch face. So annoying!

This "wrong password try in 3 hours" thing just started this morning with my watch. I hadn't changed anything, including the watch face. I do notice there is a new update watchOS 10.3 about to emerge. I suspect that is related to this glitch. I just wish I knew how to fix it now.
