Apple Watch time error after update

Don’t know exactly when this happen but I just notice it last week that whenever I look at the time example “it says 7:20” on my watch but when I look at my work time it says 7:30 and then I tried to look at my watch again it suddenly jump to the right time from 7:20 to 7:30. Don’t know if the latest update this happens but this is the first time happening to me. Anyone else notice this?

The first (and simplest) thing to try if something isn’t working right is to restart your Apple Watch and its paired iPhone. If necessary (device not responding), try a forced restart. Both methods can be found here:

If that doesn't help, the next steps would be to unpair and pair your watch again and restore from the backup just created. This should result in no loss of data. It deletes all temp and corrupted files and re-indexes the file system.
