Mute bell icon disappeared

iOS version 8.8.1. I keep my watch muted most of the time but a few days ago I un-muted it by swiping up and tapping the bell icon. Now I want to turn the mute back on and the bell icon is no longer there. If I push the side button it only brings up notifications.

On the link you sent, my screen doesn't exactly match either of those. I have no cellular icon like on the right but I do have the others.

Did you follow the directions for rearranging, removing and restoring buttons?
