I just tried it - in Menu » Watch Face I selected the second option, and got the right face. If it did not work for you, try setting back the default watch face, and then this one again.

Well, I do not use that watchface, so cannot tell for sure, but I can imagine that the hollow font is perhaps used for AM time, while the full font for the PM time (just a speculation). In any case I do not see why anyone would bother about such detail. It is as it is. The time is there, and that's what I need. The full font is better readable anyway.

... another possibility is that you have a different firmware - either another version (not v12.20), or you have an APAC device. Those have their own firmware that may differ in fine details. Anyway, if the watch shows the full font only, then you likely cannot do anything to change it, so just learn to live with it, or choose a different watchface that irritates you less.

I have seen this before in the FB group. It was on either APAC (as Trux suggested) or the Tactical version, I cannot remember which. fwiw I prefer it to the 'open text' one.

I have both Instinct and Instinct Tactical - neither one is APAC - and I see what @trux posted, i.e. the watch face shows the "open text" minutes on both. I checked AM/PM differences, and also 12-hour/24-hour and Military time settings - all show the "open text" minutes. My guess is that OP's watch is an APAC version.

HTH

Yes, it is practicaly certain, because of the time shown on the screenshots - the user is located in the APAC time zones.

Well... yes my watch is from APAC region and still use v11.00 for the latest update firmware-_-

No, you can only install APAC firmware on APAC devices.
