Apple Watch series 2 setup

I’m trying to connect my Apple Watch series 2 to my iPhone 11 Pro which has the latest software on it but the watch is getting stuck at the point where the phone is trying to update the software. How do I even go around this?

To use your Apple Watch Series 1 or later with watchOS 5, you need to pair it with an iPhone 5s or later with iOS 12 or later—Apple Watch models with cellular require an iPhone 6 or later. Setup assistants on your iPhone and Apple Watch work together to help you pair and set up your Apple Watch.


To use your Apple Watch Series 1 or later with watchOS 6.1, you need to pair your Apple Watch with an iPhone 6s or later with iOS 13 or later. Setup assistants on your iPhone and Apple Watch work together to help you pair and set up your Apple Watch.
