How do I pair my used Apple Watch series 1 with my iPhone 8 Plus?

I recently purchased a used iWatch series 1, I cannot get the 6 digit code to pop up when its time to pair. I turn it on and it goes as follows:

  1. Asking you what language
  2. Choose your region
  3. "start pairing"

It never allows me to pair via automatically, so I have to pair manually. I get passed everything else, but the 6 digit code never comes up. How do I pair my used iWatch series 1 with my iPhone 8plus?

Firstly I'd check with the previous owner to make sure they removed the watch from their icloud account,the watch might still be activation locked to the other persons phone.

Ask them to follow these steps;
