Watch Series 1 won’t update to os 6

When I try to get the watch os 6 update I get the message (using the Watch app on my iPhone) “watch os 5.3.1 is up to date.” I have a iPhone 6S running os 13.

Apple Watch series 4 won’t show watchOS 6 update I have an iPhone XS Max running iOS 13 and a new Apple Watch series 4 44mm Nike version. The watch updated to watchOS 5.3.2 but after that when checking for software updates in the watch app on the iPhone tells me it’s up to date with latest os. I have tried resetting and unpairing bothe the watch and iPhone with no luck. I have tried another iPhone running iOS 13 which successfully updated a version 3 watch to watchOS 6.1 to pair with and it still shows my watch is running latest watchOS 5.3.2, and not give watchOS 6 as an update? I think my watch could be faulty? thanks in advance for any ideas

Apple watch SE 1st Gen will not complete software update Just setting up a new watch SE 1st gen. It successfully paired in family mode with iPhone 14 pro, running ios 16.6. However, like other posts in this forum the latest watch OS ( I think 9.6.1) doesn't successfully install. After the updating and preparing process, which takes about an hour, the watch app just asks again to update to the latest version.

The version of it compatible with the Series 1 and 2 watches won't be out until later this year.
