Google Refreshes 2 Wear OS App Icons Ahead of Pixel Watch 5 Launch

Summary
Google has begun rolling out redesigned Clock and Stopwatch icons on Pixel Watches, adding new colors and a revised Clock layout days before the Pixel Watch 5 debut.
The Clock icon gets the bigger overhaul, with less prominent alarm bells, a darker palette and classic 10:10 hand positioning, while Stopwatch keeps its design but shifts to subtler colors.
X user Joe Lenington spotted the updated icons, suggesting Google is quietly tweaking its smartwatch software ahead of next Wednesday’s Pixel Watch 5 and Pixel 11 launch.
June brought a similar ECG icon refresh, and the latest changes point to a broader Wear OS visual cleanup likely to continue through the summer.
