Apple Watch announces time randomly with VoiceOver off

My Apple Watch 3 watchOS 6.2.6 randomly announces the time. The voice over feature is off. It happens in clusters: if it does it once it will do it 3 to 5 times within a couple of minutes and seems to happen just after I have been washing my hands. Not every time I wash my hands, but every time I've noticed it I have just finished washing my hands. It is about a once a week thing.

Hello mlengas,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities! I understand that you need help with your Apple Watch. I am happy to help the best I can. You can go to: My Watch > Clock > Speak time and make sure this feature is turned off: Tell time on Apple Watch


If you are still having an issue after trying that, you may want to reach out to Apple Support to look into options, and to have your Apple Watch inspected. This link will point you in the right direction: Get Support


Cheers!
