>in most other apps you specify values by touch actions and the crown does nothing This was only a minor point in a much bigger comment, but I can't help thinking this is going to change. The alarm app works differently than new third-party apps because Apple made it, and Apple is way better at making Watch apps than third-party devs -- even aside from limitations on the Watch API, it's not surprising that the UI from developers is inconsistent and (right now) favors basically making a little tiny version of an iPhone app, touchscreen and all. I bet this changes in relatively short order, or at least improves to the point that you can get as consistent an experience on the Watch as you'd get between apps on the phone.
