Apple Watch 11 Poor Volume for Sounds/Notifications

Is anyone else finding poor volume levels for the Apple Watch 11?

I have the 46MM GPS Aluminium Jet Black I've got the volume slider in Sounds & Haptics all the way up to the far right but when I check back its reduced the slider to a lower volume?

Any tips?

Thankyou in advance.

Apple Watch Series 11, watchOS 26

Did you check if "Automatically Adjust Volume" is enabled in the WatchApp/Sound & Haptics?

If yes, the volume will be adjusted according to your surrounding noise, which might be too low, compared to the settings in watchOS 11.
