Hands-on with Siri Modular, watchOS 27’s new Apple Watch face

watchOS 27 includes one new watch face: Siri Modular. The new face is available on both Apple Watch Series and Ultra models. However, the version on Ultra has a few more customization options. Check it out.

Both versions of Siri Modular use the same layout. There’s a top center line complication, the time (centered), a wide Siri suggestion widget, and a row of three circular complications.

Apple Watch Ultra also supports bezel options, adding one more way to configure the new watch face.

First, three style options let you adjust the height of the clock. The first option features the tallest clock and three circular complications. The second style is a compact clock with the wide Siri suggestion widget and three circular complications. The third style is a medium clock with a wide complication.

All three modes support displaying the top line complication. None of the modes support displaying the current seconds as part of the clock.

Both Series and Ultra also include font options for the clock. However, Ultra is only an option on Apple Watch Ultra hardware. Series models only offer Modern, Classic, and Rounded.

Meanwhile, the Ultra includes those bezel options I mentioned. These are like other Ultra-exclusive watch faces.

Lastly, there’s the option to set the watch face color, including lots of new options like Dark Bronze, Radiant Gold, and other new choices.

Siri Modular is part of the new watchOS 27 update, included in today’s release candidate software.
