If you have a recent iCloud backup from the old phone just setup the new phone using the same Apple ID, and it will detect and offer to load the backup including your watch.
If you have already setup the new phone, or you don’t have a backup - you need to erase the watch back to factory condition, then pair to the new phone.
Unpair and erase your Apple Watch - Apple Support

If the watch will not even start to the point you can do this, and keeps displaying the Apple logo it is likely the battery is low and needs to be fully charged. If your Apple Watch won't charge or it won't turn on - Apple Support
