watchOS 27 adds 13 new colors to Apple Watch's Modular face
Apple's watchOS 27 update expands the Modular watch face with 13 new color choices, including Olive, Burgundy, Magenta and Navy Blue, accessible via the Color screen when customizing the face. The update also brings new complications for Daily Steps, Heart Rate, and Readiness, though these are exclusive to Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Series 12.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The move shows Apple continuing to invest in customization for one of its most popular watch faces rather than replacing it, likely aiming to keep long-time users engaged with incremental refreshes. Restricting the new health complications to the latest hardware could also serve as an incentive for owners of older watches to upgrade.
