Slow apple watch update

I've updated the new IOS of Iphone and there was this notification that asked me to update the new version of my apple watch and i click update but i haven't put my apple watch on the charger, and it turns out that my apple watch couldn't receive any notification and i tried to update it with putting my apple watch on top of the charger. When i tried to update it, it kept rejecting it says " software update failed", and i canceled the update and the apple watch was unpaired to my phone and i tried to paired it again but it kept asking for an update and now the update is supper slow it takes more than 3 hours. Please give me some solutions for the problem.


Thank you

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 4

Your  Watch must be charged to at least 50% AND it must be connected to the charger AND both the watch and the iPhone must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network in order to complete the update to the Watch OS.


Reset your watch connect it to its charger, make sure it is charged to at least 50% then use your iPhone to try the update again.
