If the zoom feature is already off and the watch face is still too big, there are a few other solutions that may help. One option is to adjust the size of text on your watch face by going into Settings > General > Accessibility > Larger Text and usig the slider bar to make font sizes smaller or larger as needed.

Another option is to customize your watch face by downloading different apps or faces from the App Store or through third-party sites like Facer or Watchville. This can give you more choices when selecting a watch face that fits better on your wrist in terms of size and style. You can also try changing your watch band if it doesn’t fit snugly enough against your wrist, which can cause the watch face to appear bigger than normal due to air gaps between skin and band.
