Hi Donna, The time travel function allows you to see updated info for supported complications as though it was really a past or future time. So, if it is 10 AM, your watch might display info for your next meeting and the current weather conditions. Spin the Digital Crown forwards and the time will begin to change. By the time you’ve traveled forwards to 9 PM, you’ll see different info for the forecasted weather conditions at that time, and perhaps your next meeting in the morning.
It’s a very useful feature. If it gets in your way, you can turn it off. To enable or disable time travel, look under the clock settings in the watch app on your phone, of all places.
