Regardless,Googlehas just refreshed its support page to show what the new software update has in store.

Posting earlier this week, Google community manager Stefanie Fredericksaid the updatebegan rolling out on 14 November, but that it could take a few weeks before it has landed on every Pixel Watch.
The update includes bug fixes and improvements to the Pixel Watch’sFitbitintegration, as well as fixes toeSimsupport and a change to how the watch’s 3D tutorial works.
