Clear all notifications?

Is there a quick way to clear all notifications? My watch commonly has ~25 notifications queued up, and I have to go through and clear them one by one. Is there a shortcut, like on the Apple Watch, where I can clear all of them?
I don't want to disable smart notifications -- I usually read them as they pop up -- but i'd like to get rid of them more efficiently!

Why not just clear them on your phone if you have that many pending?

Yes – in the Notification Center of the mobile device that is sending the notifications to your watch.

It may not be the quick way you had imagined, and you may not think it's that quick to reach for your mobile phone handset (even though it is of course within ten metres of your watch physically, for the Bluetooth connection between them to hold), but it is a quick way, and in all likelihood quicker than clearing the notifications one by one using your watch as the user interface.

Aha! Good enough, thank you! I don't clear those often as they aren't as "in your face" as the icon on the top of my watch face... but that will work!

On my Apple Watch I can press hard on the screen (force touch) and I get a "clear all notifications" option. Pretty handy.

Yeah I agree. It would come very much in handy. Every time I’ve returned my phone from being off 25 or so notifications hit my watch all at once. It vibrates like mad and in the mornings after just waking up that can be quite full on. Then you gotta press the lap button 100 times to clear them.
