Animated activity rings on series 7

My brand new series 7 doesn’t do the animated rings when I reach a goal. It does say goal reached but I want the animated rings like my series 3 had

Make sure "Goal Completions" notifications are enabled. See the 'Control activity reminders' section in:

Track daily activity with Apple Watch - Apple Support


If it is, then the first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
