I've read about issues with this on the Ultra series. On my new AW9, the Elevation complication is acting wacky. Normal elevation at home is 290ft. This morning, when I pulled the watch off the charger, the elevation read -408ft. It's now back to normal at 290ft. Could this anomaly be related to the charger magnet interfering with the complication?

Elevation data on the AW is some mix of GPS and barometric pressure, only Apple knows Thea how exactly it is calculated. In your scenario, probably no GPS signal … I do t see how the magnet plays a role. But also, complications are only updated so often
