Not liking the change to timer in watchOS 3

Hi. I just went to set a timer on my watch and noticed that the hrs and min pickers are gone replaced by pre-defined times. Any way to get the old timer back? I needed 35 min and the only options close to that were 30 min or 1 hrs. Haven't tried the phone timer on iOS 10 yet but hope it's not the same.

Failing that, you can always ask SIRI to set your Custom countdown.
