Apple 11 watch frozen at set time

My Apple 11 watch seems to be frozen at the time that I had set it for. How do I get rid of that setting so that it turns back to normal?

Is this about changing the time settings on the watch ahead of the actual time?

Did you try to force restart by pressing and holding the Digital Crown and the Side button together for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?


If this does not work, unpairing the watch would be the next step:
