How do I get my watch to show the time on a black or light screen, depending on the rotation of the wrist?

My watch used to show the time on a black or light screen, depending on the rotation of the wrist. But from a certain point, they do not show the time on a black screen. The screen in this position is just black. How to restore the previous watch mode?
