Can't enter password on Watch series 11 fast enough - always get Verification error. Yes, it is the right password.

I keep getting a Verificatin Failed error on my Watch series 11. I've just entered the new password on my iPad, iPhone, & Macbookpro, so I know it's the correct password. It takes me a while to get it entered, so that may be the issue. Is there a way to magnify the keyboard, or use my passkey to get into the watch? Now the watch is effectively useless. I was forced to change my password from Apple TV initially, and that was successful on the other devices. please help!
