Apple Watch 5, 6 and 7 have an Always On Display, but in active on display, you can have the screen fully active for either 15 or 70 seconds, before the screen goes back to standby as Always On. If you are not seeing the standby Always on when the screen isn't active, go to the Apple Watch App on your iPhone > Display & Brightness and turn on Always On there.
