Roll back timer to old version

How do I revert the timer to the old version? This new version (top pull down) limits me minutes no seconds and caps at 2 hrs. I cannot jump into the timer to set long timers with the simple pull down. It now requires me multiple actions just to get into the timer.

From the the Control Center screen hold your finger on the on the Timer icon (don't just tap it) and you'll get a menu that says "Start Timer". Tap it and you get the old timer. OR tap the clock on the home screen and you'll get the world clock with the option on the bottom to choose the timer. At least that's the way it works on my SE3.
