May 9, 2015 7:07 AM in response to jmccarronby PaddyFH,I Have the same problem. Just noticed the earth on astronomy face is not showing the green dot of my location. I've also noticed that the sunrise/ sunset times are not showing up in the watch faces either just blank.. Have tried
- rebooting phone
- rebooting watch
- turning off location services and back on
- turnng Bluetooth on phone off and back on.
- Unpairing the watch with the phone then re- pairing them again,
curiously, the map app on watch shows my location fine, the weather apps lists my location accurately but when I add the complication for sunrise/ sunset time to the watch face it draws a blank. The earth globe in the astronomy watch face is centred over the California region but I'm n Melbourne Australia.. The last time I looked at this watch face a few days ago, it showed my location fine in the the globe and had a dot where my location is.
not sure what else to do?!

I ran into the same issue and turning WiFi on helped me to fix the issue.

Jun 13, 2015 4:18 AM in response to jmccarronby Alex Johnson2,I have a version of this too, except my location dot is stuck in a place I have left. I find a combination of all of the suggestions above does eventually "jolt" the watch - and being on an open wifi (or cell) seems to be necessary as opposed to one with a landing page or some other kind of managed access.

Jun 13, 2015 9:00 AM in response to Alex Johnson2by isuru_w,In the event that the green dot is stuck in a location that you have left you could do the following to reset your location and/or speed up the process of resetting your location.This will not only ensure that the green dot appears on the correct location, but also corrects the sun rise/set times as well.
- Toggle your Wi-Fi off and on your phone
If that doesn't reset the location of your watch, try the following steps
- On your phone
- Settings > Privacy > Location Services
- Ensure that Apple Watch Faces have Location Access while using the app
- Then go to System Services and toggle Wi-Fi networking off and on
- Go back to Privacy and toggle location services off and on
- Toggle your Wi-Fi off and on
- Then restart your apple watch
This should speed up the process of resetting the location on your watch.

- Then go to System Services and toggle Wi-Fi networking off and on

So that set of instructions worked. But I think it was simply the "Toggle Wi-Fi off and on on your phone."
What I'm curious about is the notion of ensuring that apple watch faces have location access while using the app. WHERE does one do that? I could find no place in the phone or the watch where I could specifically turn on location access for watch faces. Where is that?
Thanks, Mathetes

You were already there: Settings > Privacy > Location Services
Apple Watch Faces is included in the list of apps.

Thanks. I'd looked there, but had glided right past that option, string me in the face. As it happens, it was set correctly. So it really was the toggling of wi-fi (which doesn't seem like something that should be necessary, but that's another matter.)
