Can't see the battery percentage of my Apple Watch after watchOS update

After the latest update, I can’t see things like battery percentage, where’s my phone, silent mode, etc. I’ve already tried the forced restart a few times and I still can’t swipe up and see them.

Momentarily press and release the OVAL button, flush to the side of the Apple Watch. NOT the round rotating Digital Crown.
