Apple watch update error

I somehow ended up unpairing my watch from my iPhone. and then it asked me to update my watch, so I try to update it.. and it keeps saying “unable to check for update.” “An Error occured while checking for software update” . then it Gives me the option to start over or try again. Trying again isnt working, and when i click start over it wont let me “ start pairing” Cause it says “ connect iphone to wifi OR cellular network & to have Bluetooth on. Given we dont have wifi, isnt helping the situation. so now my watch is now unpaired and not updated. and I can’t pair it without the update! so now im STUCK. Answers please?

I'm can't fathom how you accidentally unpair it but WiFi is required to update it so you will have to go somewhere with WiFi.
