Change watch face colour on the hour *automatically*

[baruchsienna]

I'm guessing this is not possible, but I saw an image (that I sadly can no longer find) of 12 watches in a circle (like spokes) each with a coloured numeral for the hour (and matching watchband) in colour wheel order and made me want to have that: every hour, to have the background numeral change from red to orange to yellow... It would be so awesome if the watch faces could be dynamic like that, changing colour automatically each hour.

No, I don't think there's any way of that - the only face that changes is the solar dial and that's just dependent on what part of the day you're in.

The pride analog faces will change every time you look at them (they change when the watch display goes off or dims, so they're the new color when it comes back on)

just moves a different color to the outside, in circular mode, the complications match the outer band.
the only problem I have is the red complications are a little hard to see.

Automatically Change Your Apple Watch Face by Location or Time

Like Jaqen H’ghar, the Apple Watch has many faces. And while it’s easy to manually swipe through all the different options , there’s no need to do so

Using Shortcuts I can set up custom faces to change automatically every hour.
