Apple Watch 8 Auto-Brightness Option

I finally upgraded from my Apple Watch 3 to the Apple Watch 8 and am BEYOND FRUSTRATED!!! How does Apple create new models and put out countless updates but then take away one of the most important features?!? (The ability to actually see and read the watch ESPECIALLY in the dark) The Auto-Brightness dims my screen so bad I can barely see it at night and Apple doesn’t give the option in settings to turn it off anywhere. I have tried EVERYTHING and even asked Siri to turn it off! She says she does and it pops up that she did and I can finally see the option (Since it’s NO WHERE in the settings) but when I click it on and off and restart my watch… it does NOTHING!
