I can't pair my Sony WH-1000XM headphones to Apple watch Series 5

I'm struggling to pair my Sony WH-1000XM headphones to Apple watch Series 5. I could pair Jabra headphones without any issue though.


Any clue?

Apple Watch Series 5, watchOS 6

Did you put them into "Discovery Mode"?


I have a previous generation Sony Noise Canceling headphones, and once I put them into "Discovery Mode", they paired with my Apple Watch just fine.


I've also paired two 15 year old Bluetooth headphones, and my 1st gen Apple Airpods.


Again, the fun part was finding the instructions on how to put each set of headphones into "Discovery Mode". But once I did that, they paired without any problems.
