Where is Double Tap on my Watch Ultra 2?

I've got a brand new, fully up-to-date iPhone 15 Pro Max and a brand new, fully up-to-date Apple Watch Ultra 2. I've read three article showing me how to enable 'Double Tap' via Settings > Gestures on either the Watch Settings app or settings in the Watch app on phone. Except there is no Gestures menu item.


Any clues? I'm hoping this isn't going to be as disappointing as the "US-only" (why?) voicemail transcribe which was the only other new compelling feature for me this release...


Thanks

I have it on my Ultra 2. Go to Settings/Accessibility on your watch. You have to have Assistive Touch off to use Double Tap. It’s one or the other. I believe a lot of watches have Assistive Touch but the Ultra 2 and Apple Watch 9 have Double Tap. They are two separate things.
