Series 6 time not advancing

When the watch is at rest it is supposed to update the time every minute. My watch does not do that, it freezes until you tap it or raise your wrist. It’s running the latest software.

My Apple Watch updated, after the update my watch will get stuck on a time for hours. For example one day it was 06:30PM my watch showed 11:23AM. Later on it caught up then it’ll get stuck again. It only did this right after I did the last update. My watch needed an update about a week ago. I updated it, ever sense my watch get stuck in a time for hours. It’ll catch up to itself and then it’ll delay again. For example one day it was 06:30pm and my watch was stuck at 11:23am. How can I solve this issue?

Apple Watch time not correct The time on the Apple Watch only updates when I raise my wrist to wake the screen. When the screen is darkened - but still displaying the time - the time is not correct. It then jumps forward to the correct time when the screen is awake. This has happened since the latest iOS update. I have a series 5.
