On previous devices I've owned, there was a compass calibration function but I'm not finding anything like this on my new Apple Watch (Series 6 44mm Stainless). I do have the Milanese band which has a strong magnetic closure and I realize this can affect the compass but is there any way to compensate for this?

From Apple;
The presence of magnets can affect the accuracy of any compass sensor. Apple's Leather Link, Leather Loop, Milanese Loop and earlier Sport Loop watch bands use magnets or magnetic material that might interfere with the Apple Watch compass. The compass isn't affected by Sport Loop bands introduced in September 2019 or later, or any version of the Sport Band.
