Series 9 too dim at night

I see everyone else is having the same problem. I’m a professional musician and Dj. I work strictly in dark environments. This watch is too dim at night. It’s completely unusable for me unfortunately. I REALLY like the watch during the day. Too bad. It seems like an easy fix? It’s bright during the day, but to dim at night?? I have the display brightness maxed out. My watch is 24 hours old. It looks as though I’ll have to return it sadly. It’s truly unusable. Too dim.

The latest update to WatchOS 10.4 adds Settings/Accessibility/Minimum Brightness.

Turn this ON and the watch will no longer dim in dark areas.
