Apple Watch smart stack calendar widget shows all my events start at 12:00

I recently updated my Apple Watch Series 10 to watchOS 26. Calendar widget started to show all my events start at 12:00. When I click them or open Calendar app, I can see the time is correct. Notifications comes at correct time. I can see the Calendar widget in my iPhone is correct as well. Only the widget in watch is broken.


I tried to reset syncronized data, turned calendar data off and on for all my accounts and none seems to fix it. I didn't want to reset the watch without knownig that it'll work. Any idea why might this be happening?

No fix for this issue in 26.4 either. The Calendar widget displays the event start time incorrectly as 12:00 when the watch language is set to Finnish. If I switch the language to English, the time displays correctly. Changing the region does not seem to affect the issue. It appears that only the watch’s display language matters.


As a workaround, I pinned the Calendar Timeline widget to my stack and disabled suggestions for other Calendar widgets. For some reason, the Timeline widget shows the correct time even when Finnish is set as the main language.

I think you're on to something @Joostik. I have English and Czech as preferred Languages, and also Czechia as region (see screenshot), and I'm seeing 12:00 for everything.


I tried removing Czech as preferred language, and setting region to UK, then rebooted watch and it was working normally again. Then I set it back, and it's back to 12:00.


I tried doing this one change at a time, but it was unclear whether it was Preferred language or region doing it, or a combination of both. It seems something to do with this settings is the cause though.

I'm using 26.3 for a while now and it just started to work well for no obvious reason.


Under Language & Region menu, I first changed to special settings but haven't changed any of the settings. Then I went back to mirroring iPhone preferences. I don't remember if I restarted in between. After restarting, it started to show correct time for some reason.
