Okay, so this unknown-series Apple Watch is running watchOS 5-something and is paired with an iPhone XS Max running an unknown iOS version.


Current for the iPhone XS Max is 13.4.1. If the iPhone is not on iOS 13.4.1, update the iPhone.


Then...


Unpair the Watch from the iPhone, and try again.


If that fails then reset the Watch by erasing all its contents, and re-pair it.


If that fails, contact Apple Support.
